Smark Out Moment

Welcome to your source for tracking the 2022-2022 season of the WWE Fantasy League here at Smark Out Moment!

Who doesn't enjoy some friendly competition? Tony Mango, Callum Wiggins and Robert DeFelice are looking to battle their way to victory in the return of the WWE Fantasy League.

Think of this as any typical Fantasy League – every player is looking to pick the team of WWE superstars that is going to earn them the most points between WrestleMania Backlash 2022 and WrestleMania 39, with points earned for appearances, victories and championships successes.

With 3 teams drafted from across the Raw, SmackDown and NXT rosters, points will be won and lost on the journey to crowning this season's champion, and to secure bragging rights among the Smack Talk crew.

THE RULES

These are the rules that we will be abiding by for this season of the Fantasy League in relation to how the teams are drafted, how trades are made, and how points are scored. If you're keen on creating your own Fantasy League among friends, feel free to use our rules as your guide.

LEAGUE / DRAFT / TRADE RULES

• Teams have been drafted from across the entirety of the Raw, SmackDown and NXT rosters – 168 superstars drafted, 56 superstars to each team
• These will be our rosters for the entirety of the season, unless trades are made in accordance with the PPV prediction contests outlined below
• The first 10 superstars drafted on each person's team are "protected picks" – this means that they can never be traded for by an opposing player in any circumstance
• Both male and female superstars are eligible
• Tag teams, factions and stables are NOT drafted as units – each superstar must be picked individually
• Points are only scored for results on pay-per-views and episodes of Raw, SmackDown and NXT 2.0 – anything that happens on Main Event, 205 Live, NXT UK, etc. doesn't count
• Snake-style draft

To add a bit more jeopardy into the mix, there are also special rules based on our success in every pay-per-view predictions contest:

• The winner of a single PPV predictions contest will be able to double the points accrued by one of their roster members up to (and including) the next PPV, or halve the points accrued by someone on an opponent's roster up to (and including) the next PPV
• If someone wins 2 consecutive PPV predictions, they can both double the points accrued by one of their roster members up to (and including) the next PPV AND halve the points accrued by someone on an opponent's roster up to (and including) the next PPV
• If someone wins 3 consecutive PPV predictions, they earn the right to trade one of unprotected roster members for someone else's unprotected roster members – this can be absolutely anyone, including people released from WWE earlier in the year
• In case of a tie in PPV predictions, the winner is determined by a prediction of the length of one of the matches on the card, with the guess closest to the actual time winning.

POINTS – TV

• Appearances on Raw, SmackDown or NXT 2.0 in any fashion earns someone 1 point
• A victory in a match on Raw, SmackDown or NXT 2.0 in any fashion (pinfall, submission, count out, DQ, etc.) earns someone 2 points
• No points are awarded or taken away for losses, ties and no contests

POINTS – PPV

• Appearances on a WWE PPV or NXT special event in any fashion earns someone 2 points
• A victory in a match on a WWE PPV or NXT special event in any fashion (pinfall, submission, count out, DQ, etc.) earns someone 3 points
• No points are awarded or taken away for losses, ties and no contests

POINTS – SPECIAL RESULTS

Superstars will win 10 bonus points for the following outcomes:

• They win a Royal Rumble
• They win Money in the Bank
• They win an Elimination Chamber
• They win a tournament (e.g. King of the Ring)
• They survive a Survivor Series Elimination Tag Match

Furthermore, at the end of the year, any superstars that have earned points in every single week of the Fantasy League Season will earn an additional 10 points.
