Hey there cats and kittens!

It's time to figure out the March Madness star of the month! Obviously the March Madness show just happened and that's probably going to weigh heavy to most people, so, I made a short list of "nominees" based on results across the entire month. Along with the PPV we had two Anarchy shows, two Warfares, and one Savage. We also had the Monday Madness angled show but I don't really consider those.

Anyhoo!

Please choose a name from this list OR select "other" and then TELL US WHO THAT IS.

After you vote, make sure to leave a comment and tell us why you went the direction you did.

Thanks! Here ya go....

I voted for Vita who work rate was bar-none and ended up winning the whole month across all shows. Pretty splash worthy.

Kris Cruze for the greatest return this company has ever seen.

*One Time XWF Heavy Metalweight Champion*

I could come up with several lists of why any of those names deserves the nod this month. Since I can only vote once, my vote goes to the professor himself, Ned Kaye. The story he built around the Chameleon was so interesting to read and he had to kick it into high gear this past month to lead up to the big reveal. Super well done!

i went king bob

I thought about this for a good moment and I went ahead and voted for Thunder Knuckles. I absolutely think that Bobby's victory was deserved and well-earned and I ultimately suspect him to be victorious, which is great because the king is the king. However, TK's efforts were incredibly impressive and he really put on a great performance I think deserves some form of acknowledgement.

EDIT: Also, I just haven't logged out of this account on my writing setup, so that's why Chameleon account lol

King BOBby is King.

On edit, to elaborate; Bobby was here and Bobby was good. Bobby found his niche and Bobby thrived. Then one day, Bobby was gone. Nowhere to be found. His partner left alone to fend for himself, and fend for himself he did, defeating a former universal champion and joining a small but impressive list of names. TK was and still is one the rise, as evident by his performance at MM, but not just his, all 4 of the finalist stepped up their games, Kido, Bobby, Jenny, and especially Tk, who I suspect had he not been as motived and fire as he was, might have me selling a different story with a particular "rookie" crowned our King. Bobby is back and pushing harder than I think he has in a minute. That's not a dis at his prior work by any means. Records speak for themselves, and I think March Madness isn't the result of his hard work, but instead the begining of something bigger, which is why King BOURBON gets my vote.

On edit edit, reason=spoiler: Eyeing a certain champ for early RPOTM 👀

God damn. You know it's a big month when ya boy here beats TV champ Charlie, tag champ Flynn AND Uni champ Vaughn all in one month and yet can't even catch a vote. On any other month I would think that would be a no brainer. But.. I get it. Went with Vita for the work across ALL shows, Madness included. What was it, 5-0? 6-0? Something nuts like that.

You've officially broken into the "too consistently good" club. But I'm voting for you.

pfffft you think that's bad? Charlie's so good he doesn't even make the list of nominees! Nevermind the .500 monthly record!

The jokes on you for thinking that beating Nickles is an accomplishment.

You got my vote. Vaughn's still sore lol.

Y'ALL READY FOR MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATH!

Disclaimer: I'm not telling you who to vote for, I'm just doing some calculations and showing you what they were before I made my decision. My math doesn't prove or disprove anything. Which I think you already know cuz the last two months, my pick didn't even win But anyway, I ain't mathematically proving anything definitively, I just like whoever I picked based on subjective statistics.

NOW, WITNESS MY MATHS!

Okay, so… I’ma go ahead and cut the people who didn’t win more than half of their matches. So, that eliminates LSM and Ned Kaye.

I’m also going to cut Corey and my two dark horse Other Selections, Cashe and Boots. Great months from all three, but limited match numbers compared to the rest of the field.

So that leaves Vita, Bobby and Alias.

Okay, now watch this though. A lot of people are citing Vita’s 6-0 record. Bobby comparatively has a 3-0 record, all of his matches taking place in the King of the XWF tourney. Alias also has a 3-0.

HOWEVER… How difficult were these records to obtain? How do they compare with one another? Let’s calculate…

COMBINED OPPONENT WIN-LOSS RECORD FOR MARCH

Vita beat…
Morbid Angel (0-1) (0-3 if you also count MiniMorbid which… do you? What’s the canon? Are Morbid and Mini-Morbid the same guy or different people? Whatever, let’s play it safe and say 0-1)
Calvary (twice) (1-3)
Alex Minette-Vega-Yin (0-1)
Ruby (1-1)
Hide Yamakazi (0-1) & Jacki O’Lantern (0-1) & Oliver Taylor (0-1)

Combined Record of Opponents in March: 2-9
Combined Records of Opponents minus matches against Vita: 2-1
Combined Wins of Vita’s Opponents in March: 2

Bobby beat…
Raion Kido (2-1)
Jenny Myst (3-1)
Calvary (1-3)

Combined Record of Opponents in March: 6-5
Combined Records of Opponents minus matches against Bobby: 6-2
Combined Wins of Bobby’s Opponents in March: 6

Alias beat…
Peter Vaughn (1-1)
Mark Flynn (2-1)
Charlie Nickles (1-1)

Combined Record of Opponents in March: 4-3
Combined Records of Opponents minus matches against Alias: 4-0
Combined Wins of Alias' Opponents in March: 4

Okay… So, Vita had an incredible month. Six wins in one month might be a record. But she also had beat 9 people that all-combined scored two total wins for the month of March.

Meanwhile, Bobby went undefeated and scored the only victories in March over last month’s SotM, Kido and Jenny Myst.

And Alias literally beat three dudes (myself included) that only lost to him for the entire month!

…Shit. Okay. So I’ma cut Vita. And that just leaves Bobby and Alias…

…Sheeeeeeeeeeee-it.

So, as a rule-of-thumb for JUST my vote and no one else’s… I tend to give an extra point for beating last month’s SotM. And Bobby beat Raion soooooo…

For the record, Vita, Alias and Bobby all had incredible months and should be very proud.

…Buuuuuuuuuut, I gotta throw it to Bobby this month. Long live the King.
