Alright, guys – championship season is rolling along! Up next, we’re resurrecting the Fantasy Royal Rumble Challenge! To enter, it’s simple – FOLLOW US ON TWITTER (we will check), and simply claim one of the available spots via DM or replying to this article. We aren’t hard to get a hold of. Last year’s winner got a medal, some SoBros swag, and a Chick-Fil-A gift card ’cause fuck yeah who doesn’t love Chick-Fil-A!?!?! This year’s prize is TBD, but we’ll have somethin’ for you so long as you’re willing to share your shipping address with us.
The Rules
Here’s how it’s going to work – We’re opening up spots for fifteen people. Each participant will get two numbers from a random drawing (will likely just be literally pulling names out of a hat, because technology).
Whoever enters the Royal Rumble at your spots will earn points based off the following scoring system:
+20 for winning the Royal Rumble
+10 for being the “Iron man/woman” (competitor in the Rumble for the longest amount of time)
+5 for each elimination
+3 for having the most eliminations in the match.
+2 if your number is a surprise entrant (surprise entrant defined as someone who is not advertised or confirmed for the match, prior to the match starting)
+1 for every minute a competitor is in the Rumble.
For Example: Let’s say I draw #3 and #21 for the men’s rumble. #3 is Drew Gulak, who is not confirmed for the match. He runs down and is immediately eliminated.
#21 is Shinsuke Nakamura, who is confirmed for the match. He competes for 10 minutes, eliminates five people (which is the most in the match), and wins the Royal Rumble. That would score as follows:
Drew Gulak – 2 pts (0 wins, 0 eliminations, 1 surprise entrant, 0 minutes)
Shinsuke Nakamura – 58 pts (1 win, 5 eliminations, 0 surprise entrant, 10 minutes, 3 “most eliminations” bonus)
That would mean I would have a score of 60 for the men’s rumble.
We will do this twice – once for the men’s Royal Rumble and once for the women’s. At the end of the night, the individual with the most points will be crowned the 2019 SoBros Network Fantasy Royal Rumble Champion.
