I still need to sort out my angles. The matches have been set since before the draft ended but my tag match really has no reason to exist at this point.

Don't blame the goalie!
Any chance we can extend the deadline to Saturday?
I'm having a hell of week.
I'm sure I can have my card done by the end of the day Saturday

I also wouldn't mind an extra day. Real life has kicked my behind this past week, very little free time.

Flair vs. Lesnar. Lesner vs. Sammartino. Flair vs. Sammartino (assuming they never met). Lesnar vs. Flair vs. Sammartino in a Triple Threat.

Not sure what I'd do for the main event, but I hope that sadistic Boss Man is taking on Jacob Fatu. There's also a route with other wrestlers I can see here that I hope you didn't pursue as well. We'll see in a few days.

I have 5 cards submitted so far. I probably won't be able to post the matchups until after work tomorrow, depending on the time everyone submits.

I'm in a similar boat. I like my roster, but things got messed up when I realized that the main event I planned already actually happened so several matches needed to be rearranged. Some of my angles are messy as well.
I just scanned your roster and I don't know if you mean to tell me there's been a Bryan vs. Guerrero or Bryan vs. Benoit match before.

Bryan vs. Liger is what I was going to do but it happened in 2004 or so. I switched things over to Bryan vs. Benoit, but I'd wanted to do Benoit vs. Shibata for years so I had to switch that match out.
I would have been very happy to see a Bryan vs Liger match. I am sure that it would have happened near the start of Bryan’s career and not many of us even realize that they wrestled.

The match is here. Not bad, Bryan was already in his prime by then, Liger was fat but still good:
I considered things along the lines of what you're saying but I'm generally against matches in a fantasy setting when they already happened. There are certain exceptions and I agree that it isn't like the match was peak Bryan vs peak Liger but in the end I felt the need to switch. Others will view things differently.
