Since the HW and CW divisions consist of mainly inactive players (in terms of RP) I have been thinking of way to create some interest in them but not tie myself up into too much segments that would take up a lot of my time. Now I have found something that I think might work - it's copying TNA's Bound For Glory series tournament, which is not to say that theirs is such an original idea but I have based my plan on it.
The idea is to have the majority of the wrestlers in those divisions entered into two tournaments. Right now there are a total of 8 people in the HW division but one of them is the champion so he can't be in the tournament. I am hoping to have another two additions to that part of the roster by season start but we will see how that goes.
The CW div on the other hand has gotten quite big and I might have to filter some participants unless we get some help from the wrestlers themselves. Since there are 10 possible contestants in the CW div we would have to get each 9 matches over the run of the tournament and even over two season (which is the plan) that is a lot.
So here's the plan:
- for HW div - the champ and one other member of the div will be in a one vs one feud while the rest of the div will enter into the tournament.
- for CW div - the champ and two others will enter into a feud while the other 8 take part in the tournament.
Now the rules for the two tournaments are as follows:
Each win by pinfall or submission earns you 5 pts.
A win by countout (if possible and I think with the new match engine it might be) - get's you 2 pts.
In the event of DQ(again it depends on what the new engine allows) - 1 pt. to the winner and -3 pts to the DQed.
Since TWG match engine allows for draws in the event of a draw each wrestler gets 1 pt.
After all matches have been done the top two wrestler on each of tournament ladder face off in a final match that determines the new #1 contender for the corresponding championship.

This is a general idea of what I would like to try. I would appreciate any input from all of you so please do not hesitate to let me know what you think.
