WWE Fantasy League 2023-2024 Season

Posted by Callum Wiggins Saturday, May 6, 2023

Welcome to your source for tracking the 2023-2024 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 Backlash 2023 and WrestleMania 40, with points earned for appearances, victories and championship 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 are drafted from across the entirety of the Raw, SmackDown and NXT rosters
Each competitor will select 10 superstars from the available rosters on the week prior to Backlash in snake-style draft
These will be the core of the teams for the entirety of the season
The first 5 picks of each team are 100% protected, and cannot be removed unless the player themself chooses to remove them – in this instance, they can designate another superstar to be a protected pick
All players must draft a minimum of 3 women in the initial draft, and must draft at least 1 NXT superstar
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 – anything that happens on Main Event, Level Up, etc. doesn't count
Following every WWE PPV event (main roster only), 1 new superstar will be drafted to each team, with the first pick going to the winner of the PPV prediction contest

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:

People with 1 PPV prediction victory can trade 1 of their existing superstars away for a new superstar alongside the monthly addition to their teams – this remains the case for the remainder of the season
People with 2 PPV prediction victories can trade 2 of their existing superstars away for 2 new superstars alongside the monthly addition to their teams – this remains the case for the remainder of the season
People with 3 PPV prediction victories can force an opponent to trade away 1 of their unprotected picks, as well as trade away up to 2 of their own team members – this only happens once
If someone has 4 or more PPV prediction victories, they can choose from the following rewards:

They can force both of their opponents to trade out 1 of their unprotected picks
They can trade one of their team for another of an opponent's unprotected picks
They can double their team's points for one week prior to the next PPV (not counting the PPV week)

POINTS – TV

Appearing on a show = 1 point
No appearance = -1 point
Winning a match in any fashion = 3 points
Losing a match in any fashion = -1 point
Draw or no contest = 0 points

POINTS – PPV

Appearing on a show = 2 points
Winning a match in any fashion = 5 points
Losing a match in any fashion = -1 point
Draw or no contest = 0 points

POINTS – SPECIAL RESULTS

Superstars will win bonus points for the following outcomes:

Winning a TV Battle Royal = 3 points
Winning a PPV Battle Royal = 5 points
Winning a Tournament = 7 points
Winning Money in the Bank = 10 points
Winning an Elimination Chamber = 10 points
Surviving a Survivor Series Elimination Tag = 3 points
Winning a Royal Rumble = 15 points

POINTS – CHAMPIONSHIPS

World Titles = WWE Undisputed Universal, WWE World Heavyweight, NXT, Raw/SmackDown/NXT Women's

Midcard Titles = Intercontinental, United States, North American, Heritage Cup

Tag Team Titles = Raw, SmackDown, NXT, Women's, NXT Women's

Winning a World Title = 10 points
Winning a Midcard Title or Tag Team Title = 5 points
Successful Title Defense = 3 points

POINTS – WIN/LOSS RECORDS

At the end of the season, the year's win/loss record of each superstar on your final team will be determined.

If the superstar has a positive win record, they will earn points equivalent to the difference between their wins and losses multiplied by 5. For example, if a superstar's final win-loss record is 38-33, the superstar will gain 25 points (38 - 33 = 5, 5 x 5 = 25).

However, if the superstar accrues more losses than wins during the season, they will lose points in the same way. For example, if a superstar's final win-loss record is 18-21, the superstar will lose 15 points (21 - 18 = 3, 3 x 5 = 15).

POINTS DEDUCTIONS

If a superstar drafted to someone's team is released from WWE during the Fantasy League, the team in question will instantly lose 50 points.
