I love the idea of this being a bi-annual event where the winner adds some King themes into his gimmick.
Imagine the FIRST Straight Edge King. or Im the king, and IM AWESOME. |

I'd say this theme fits the King gimmick pretty well:

I think its a serious possibility.
Remember that 'McMahon bastard son' storyline they fucked up. |

Also, I feel that the King winner works best as a heel.
KING Alberto Del Rio. He would play it up well. |

It's usually always worth it to go to Raw as long as it's nearby and not too expensive. Live wrestling is a blast

Limiting this to 8 guys is going to be hard. They could do matches in the weeks before the event, then do the 8 on that night. They clearly have the roster to do 16.
Make Daniel Bryan vs. Kaval the final, and have Kaval go over. It would be a step forward for him, and King of the Ring is usually good for that. ![]() King Kaval |

If Miz won a King of the Mountain match, he'd be the King of the Mizin.

I still think the intended booking for 2008 was fairly clear. The WWE can fuck up even the simplest things, though, so maybe it wouldn't have turned out like this, but:
Triple H was the WWE Champion at the time of William Regal's corronation. Since he is a big supporter of Regal's, I could have seen Triple H dropping off the WWE Title to Regal in a match where Regal used his powers as GM to essentially eliminate any chance of him losing. Regal would then be pursued by guys like Mr. Kennedy and Triple H, using his GM powers to ensure he always kept the title. Eventually, CM Punk would cash in on William Regal -- under Punk's own terms. There the tyrannical reign of William Regal would end, the new WWE Champion would be the man Regal actually defeated to become King -- CM Punk. |

As for this year, I'd go with 16 guys from each brand:
RAW: CM Punk Daniel Bryan David Hart Smith Ezekiel Jackson Goldust The Great Khali John Morrison Mark Henry The Miz R-Truth Santino Marella Sheamus Ted DiBiase Tyson Kidd Wade Barrett William Regal SmackDown!: Alberto Del Rio Big Show Caylen Croft Chavo Guerrero Chris Masters Cody Rhodes Dolph Ziggler Drew McIntyre Edge Jack Swagger Kaval Kofi Kingston MVP Rey Mysterio Trent Barreta Tyler Reks |

To ME, the King of the Ring ended in '97, after Triple H won it.

I don't think Barrett needs the KOTR title, especially since he might be WWE champion by then.
Here's some quick guesses at the one-night tourney. Raw First Round: -Daniel Bryan beats William Regal (Regal has to get a chance to defend his crown) -John Morrison beats Ted DiBiase SmackDown First Round: -Kofi Kingston beats Dolph Ziggler -Alberto Del Rio beats Kaval Semi-Finals: -Daniel Bryan beats John Morrison -Alberto Del Rio beats Kofi Kingston Finals: -Alberto Del Rio beats Daniel Bryan via Ricardo Rodriguez interference |

I have a feeling the tournament could consist of "Dashing" Cody Rhodes, Drew McIntyre, Jack Swagger, MVP, R-Truth, Daniel Bryan, Goldust, and one of the Nexus members (not Barrett).

I'd like Ted DiBiase to win it because he needs some sort of gimmick to get him over. Failing that, Swagger or Del Rio.

Well since its who we WANT to win, I'm picking Goldust. Would like to see it come down to Cody Rhodes vs. Goldust actually. Can see Alberto Del Rio winning- "Rey Alberto Del Rio" Can continue on the Rey Misterio feud by having Del Rio say "They call you Rey because its your name- they call me Rey because I'm the King" |

I think Daniel Bryan, CM Punk, John Morrison, Kaval, Drew McIntyre, Cody Rhodes, or Ted Dibiase are the best choices for me. In my opinion, I hope it's anybody but the Miz. Even Alberto Del Rio wouldn't be bad. Using this to establish a newer superstar or giving an established superstar a bigger rub eg. CM Punk.
