Would you be my new best friends?

I submit the man who will break the Undertaker's streak, the fallen angel who will cleanse the WWE of sinners in the year 2008/2009.... Hade Vansen!

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I've chosen my next victim. Cry tears of joy it's not you!

Surely there's 32 entrants now? If not, may I submit the winner of this next hunger game.

Biff Slamkovich



He is the Saturday Night Slam Master.

His biography according to the internet:

The son of a Russian senior bureaucrat, Biff has received special education in wrestling since he was a child.

While the game says that Kiev is in Russia, it is actually located in the former Soviet republic of Ukraine.

Also man I rewatched his promo and it's even lamer than I remembered. Weird to think he would go on to break the Undertaker's undefeated Streak way back in 2009 though!

At the time there were talks going on about WWE setting up offices in the UK and they wanted to sign a bunch of British guys. Sheamus, Drew McIntyre and Wade Barrett were all at the same try-out as me. But I'm the only Brit who got signed the first time they saw me. I was 26 and being British definitely helped with the ladies, if you know what I mean. I was out all the time... it was like being back at university! I was going to lead a gang of X-Men style mutants. Every week, I would send one of these guys after The Undertaker. After he had beaten them all, he would eventually face me at WrestleMania 25. It was loving incredible. Freddie was really excited about the idea, he'd cleared it with Stephanie McMahon and she loved it.

I definitely thought Hade Vansen and Mordecai were like the same dude for a while. All these weird anti-Undertakers merged in my head.

one more slot remains. It will probably, based on the current trend, get filled today while I'm at work so I can do all the setup and randomizing and announce the teams tonight then probably start doing the actual updates tomorrow evening. Our roster thus far:

Friar Ferguson
Leslie Burrell
Davey rear end in a top hat
Mega Man
Saya Iida
Mecha Mummy
Naked Mideon
Shockmaster
BigNasty Bastard
Mario Mancini
M. Suzuki, Kid

Whole Suzuki-Gun
Don Valentine
Mantaur
Meiko Satomura
Tito Ortiz
Cpt. Placeholder
Final Solution
Dr. Frank
Veronica Mars
Wu-Tang Clan
Maki Itoh

Colonel Robocop

Groups are fine, I think it'll be funny actually, because whatever the game says happens to Suzuki-Gun or the Wu-Tang Clan is going to happen simultaneously to all of them individually in the write ups. Game says Suzuki-Gun cut their arm picking berries like Wato or Lulu last game? They all had their arms in the bush and got similar cuts.

Ohhh a gimmick of "everyone pick a stable" would've been fun.

You're in!

All right everyone! That concludes round 2 signups. The teams will be randomized (each entrant will be given a random number using Microsoft Excel's RNG, then I will sort on those numbers and pair 1 and 2, 3 and 4, etc), and announced in a few hours. The game will begin tomorrow.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time. After a rigorous selection process, significant use of a time portal, and a few bags of pork rinds, it's time to meet the teams of...

LETHAL LOTTERY
These teams were selected by random draw and have not trained together, but must now depend on each other to survive!


Team 1:
First on the block it's a legend of this business. A tag-team specialist, this big man has now decided that barefoot (and bare a lot of other things) is legal! Joining him is an intrepid investigator. How the Hunger Games Match works is the biggest story of the year and there's only one pair with the skills to figure it out from the inside, Naked Mideon and Veronica Mars!

Team 2:
When these two superheavyweights team up, the other teams won't have a prayer! They are here to SHOCK the competition. I said they are here to SHOCK the competition! *thud* Anyway, it's Friar Ferguson and the Shockmaster!

Team 3:
The deeds of some men fade before they do. It takes a real artist to create something that lasts the test of time. These two men are just such artists, painting their failures on the world for decades to come. Both will be remembered, but can they be remembered as successes on the battlefield? It's Don Valentine and Hade Vansen!

Team 4:
Not everyone in the Hunger Games Match is your stereotypical competitor. If you built a forest battler from the ground up, it might not look much like either of these two, but they will try and prove all the haters wrong! It's Minion Morado and Champion Pig!


Team 5:
"Everyone's got a price", says the old saying. And when a wealthy organization like the Duchy of Clarence sends one of their employees in, they pay that price to get the best help available. The longsuffering valet needed a little insurance policy, in the form of a near-bulletproof ex-military supercop. It's Leslie Burrell and Colonel Robocop!

Team 6:
Sometimes, teams succeed because they are perfect copies of each other. Other times, they succeed due to being opposites. This is the case for this team, featuring one of the largest competitors and one of the smallest, it's The Big Nasty Bastard Paul Wight and Saya Iida

Team 7:
In the far off world of Azeroth, there are all sorts of mystical creatures. This team came from this world of war to our own war world to try their hand. One is a boatsman, a child of the sea well acquainted with navigation and a good scrap. The other is a powerful Tauren Warrior, able to cleave through any thre- wait hang on hes just a guy from Nebraska with a bull helmet on? Anyway, the brand deal will help the budget so welcome Mantaur and Captain Placeholder!

Team 8:
Here we have two of the biggest names in the competition. An absolute global icon and one of the most important champions of the 2000s! Super Mario and CM Punk! Two household names if there were any in this field. Also, of course, card subject to change you can't sue if it's just Mario Mancini and Inflatable CM Punk!


Team 9:
Look, it can't all be flash and glamour. Sometimes you just need a workhorse or two. And these two know a thing about smash mouth, suplex-heavy, style and having fun at the expense of their opponent. It's the mustache gang also known as Old Man Jenkins and Sami Zayn

Team 10:
One of the only teams that can match Team 2 for pure size, these two Jumbo-sized competitors have teamed up to show us that not only are video games art, they are in fact the art of war. How did we make these video game characters real? Very carefully. It's Biff Slamkovich and Dr. Frank!

Team 11:
Minoru Suzuki has always been a warrior. Whether it's the sadistic old man of today or the handsome grappler of two decades past, the man has the heart of the champion. But what if that heart was inside the body of an elementary school student? Would he succeed? Also, would he be allowed to listen to the hit records of his teammates, who have decided to enter the closest thing they can find to their beloved old kung fu flicks? It's Minoru Suzuki as a Kid and the Entire Wu-Tang Clan!

Team 12:
But where does that leave Minoru's own war clan, the Suzuki-Gun? Well don't worry about them. They are still bringing 8 guys to a singles competition and also have a new boss, who also is reverting to her earlier days. Even though she's a newbie, she's still the final boss. It's All of Suzuki-Gun and Rookie Meiko Satomura!


Team 13:
It takes a champion to know a champion. These two both know champions. One is a rather generic luchador, but with a proven track record. The other, an enormously-headed MMA icon. Both are out to prove they can still hang with the best in the world. It's Tito Ortiz and El Generico

Team 14:
What do you do when you have a problem? You find someone to solve it. Whether that's an unstoppable fusion of future tech and ancient mysticism or just a one man army bent on destruction, these two together can take down the Hunger Games Match, and draw down the Final curtain. It's Mecha Mummy and The Final Solution!

Team 15:
Aww nuts it's these idiots again. Not content to merely mess up Season One with their ridiculous attempts to get themselves over and hoard all the campsites, those awful rear end in a top hat Brothers have sent in their new operatives. Also one of them seems to be a small robot child with a gun? Typical, just typical of Davey rear end in a top hat and Mega Man!

Team 16:
Last but not least, we have another team of contrasts. Superheavyweight power vs lightweight quickness. Owning the company vs rejecting the industry. Looking like 300 pounds of cream cheese in a trash bag vs being the cutest in the world. This is the contrast inherent in Beau James and Maki Itoh!

There you have it, fans! Happy with your partner? Which team are you backing?
