The third annual SoBros Fantasy Wrestlemania Challenge is upon us!!! We always have fun with this one – shout to our previous champions, The Ultimate Worrier and The Ultimate Predator. Worrier was just one vote shy of winning the overall 2017 SoBros Championship because of his efforts. He is a genius, folks. Pay your respects. Likewise, Predator’s 2018 win earned him a nomination for the Upstanding Gentleman’s Trophy – who with a first name Ultimate will win this year???
Anyway, it’s a fantasy game! The premise is simple. We have 15 spots in the challenge to fill. You select a roster of wrestlers from different groups, and those wrestlers earn fantasy points over the course of the entire Wrestlemania weekend. After the event, the scores will be tallied, and the individual with the highest score will win a prize package. We’re still working on the prize package.
TO ENTER
*Like the Facebook page
*Follow us on Twitter
*Tweet/DM @StoneyKeeley to say you want in. It’s that simple.
Only enter if you can provide me with a United States shipping address to receive the prize package (sorry, international readers – our company still broke af).
RULES
*All entries MUST BE IN BY 5PM CST ON FRIDAY APRIL 5th!
*Upon officially entering this contest, I’ll reach out to you and ask you to choose a certain number of wrestlers from five different groups. If you’ve ever played fantasy Nascar….well…one, congrats – you’re a redneck. Two, it’s a lot like that. You’ll pick three wrestlers from Group A, two from Group B, so on and so forth on down the line to Group E. Wrestlers will earn points based on the scoring system provided below.
*Should the groups change, you will be contacted with an opportunity to change your roster.
*I’ll likely have to sit and rewatch the whole damn thing to get the scoring correct. So, the winner might not be announced for up to a week following the event.
