Why do you need to put all the "harder" decisions in the first round?
Pair up good wrestlers and bad wrestlers, not good and good, with bad and bad.
For example, save Owen Hart vs Triple H for the next rounds. Punk vs Malenko. Austin vs Perfect.

For example, save Owen Hart vs Triple H for the next rounds. Punk vs Malenko. Austin vs Perfect. These were drawn completely at random. They're 64 of the greatest of all-time. So it's going to be hard to pick anyway. |

This makes no sense. If you're talking about the greatest wrestler of all time, how do you not have Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, or Dusty Rhodes anywhere on the list? The greatest wrestler of all time has to be either Flair or Hogan. No one else is even close.

The greatest wrestler of all time has to be either Flair or Hogan. No one else is even close. I do personally disagree about Hulk Hogan as great wrestler all of time. He is GREAT known well all of time, but great wrestler? No. He hardly take any moves and take bumped more realstic, being old is no excuse, because look to Ric Flair. He even was take huge extreme bumped from suplex off from the top of ladder, etc |
