Smark Out Moment

Who is the sexiest WWE superstar on the roster right now? This tournament gave you the chance to determine who would be declared the hottest man in World Wrestling Entertainment's current roster as you voted and picked your favorites match by match. After five rounds, we have our victor and our king for 2019!


The results from the round 5 finals are in. With a score of 70 (67.3%) to 34 (32.7%), FINN BALOR has defeated Tyler Bate to become this year's winner for the second time, having previously won in 2017.

Check out the bracket below to see how the tournament went down in its entirety and just how he carved out a path to victory, as well as a breakdown of some more votes along the way.




ALTERNATIVE FINALS

Just for curiosity's sake, it was asked how you would have voted if the semifinals had gone the opposite direction with the losers advancing into the finals instead of our two true finalists, which would have made the finals Robert Roode vs. Adam Cole instead. In that scenario, who would have been voted the winner?

Your votes were 63 (63.6%) to 36 (36.4%) in favor of Adam Cole, which means he effectively wins the bronze medal for getting third place in this year's tournament.

BEST BODY VOTE

Third place went to Shane McMahon with 13 votes. Second place went to Drew McIntyre with 17 votes. And your winner for this, in first place, was Finn Balor with 22 votes for the third year in a row.

BEST FACE VOTE

Finn Balor (10 votes) got third place for the second year in a row, Roman Reigns (11 votes) got second place for the second year in a row (and placed 2 years ago, too, with third), but in a surprise, first place this year went to Sheamus with 12 votes.

BEST PERSONALITY

Third place went to a 10-vote tie between Finn Balor and Ali. Second place went to The Miz with 11 votes. And with 14 votes, Dolph Ziggler won this poll.

CLOSEST CALL

This year was, yet again, filled with nail-biter polls as four matches ended with just less than 3 votes difference!

In fact, Noam Dar beat Randy Orton by ONE vote (66 to 65) in round 1, with only 50.4% of the poll.

There were 2 votes separating Sheamus and EC3 in round 2, as well as Robert Roode and Ricochet.

Only 3 votes had Dominik Dijakovic over Roderick Strong in round 1.

BIGGEST LANDSLIDE VICTORY

The biggest blowout for the men's bracket was in round 1 when Seth Rollins defeated AJ Styles by a score of 120 to 11 (91.6% to 8.4%)

VOTING TURNOUT

The most active round we had this year for the men's bracket was round 4, with a turnout of 142 votes, which is more than any round in the tournament's male section history.

BIGGEST SHOCKERS

From my point of view, I'm surprised at the following:

• Rusev, Tino Sabbatelli, Matt Hardy, Drake Maverick and others didn't make it past the first qualifying round, yet Alexander Wolfe, Primate Jay Melrose, Pete Dunne and others did.
• Vince McMahon was in the top 5 of votes in the first qualifying round
• Velveteen Dream, Corey Graves, Cesaro, Matt Riddle, Elias and Xavier Woods failed to qualify.
• Tom Phillips made it into the tournament.
• Noam Dar defeated Randy Orton in round 1.
• Sheamus beat Zack Ryder in round 1 and EC3 in round 2.
• Robert Roode upset Ricochet in round 2 and even outlasted Dolph Ziggler in round 3.
• Tyler Bate somehow made it past Roman Reigns in round 2 and Adam Cole in round 4.
