do the dogs from the kennel of hell match count? going with that for :wtc: factor.

also I don't expect a whole lot of being right this time. this PPV is really weird and hard to see where the winds are gonna blow this time.

I was so happy that I got everything right and then I remembered that I thought KO and Jericho wouldn't be Best Friends... Why did I vote against true friendship?

I forgot this ppv was happening until just now and submitted my answers anyway. I promise they are blind because I haven't even kept up with this poo poo outside of seeing bayley hug a dog. That said if I get no points that's just how it goes.

Speaking of dogs my fave are the ones that get on their knees for the king of kings tribbleaych

I'm mad that the only thing I didn't get right was the KO/Jericho friendship. I bet they're going to end up not being best friends after Raw tonight just to own me.

I think I got a perfect score but don't remember if a non-roster person showed up (I don't think so?)

I've actually done really well on RAW PPVs since I stopped watching which is incredibly funny to me.

Neville is a good edge case. If someone put him down I would have given them points since it was sort of a surprise, but also honor anyone who said no because they're actually right. No one guessed him so I'm going to go with a no I think. I think I'll change the question to any non-active x roster appearances going forward. Whatever it's like three points and there are people in the 500-600 range.

I'll have scores up later today if I don't get jammed at work. What are good questions to ask for the Rumble next month? I have:

-Guess #1 and #30 (if not picked in advance)
-Pick five surprise entrants (anyone who is not an active Raw-SD wrestler, so an entry from Big Booty Daddy would count as would Shane-O-Mac unless they are announced in advance), 3 pts for each correct
-Any significant records broken?
-Who wins (duh)
-First elim
-Last elim
-What's Kofi gonna do

guess the final 4 and have it be a points multiplier based on how many you get right (2/4/8/16) or something just go all in on shuffling up the scoreboard

ie if the card is worth 50 points and you get everything right but you only guessed one of the final four (the winner) you get 100 points but if you had gotten all 4 right you get 800 points

i like the jist of it if not the severity. probably like a 1.2-1.4x multiplier and probably needing a few more conditions
