WZ Singles Tournament 1st Round Matchup: Steamboat Ricky vs. Dave

[It's...Baylariat!]

WrestleZone Forum Singles Tournament FIRST ROUND

Harley Race Region

Steamboat Ricky
vs.
Dave
​

This is a single elimination tournament. If there is a draw, I'll flip a coin. Any unneeded drama, which I'll have final say over, is an automatic disqualification and possible penalties such as warnings or infractions.

The criteria is simple: who do you think is better? You can judge that by contributions to the forums, popularity, entertainment value, wrestling knowledge or anything else you can think of, or any combination. I know it's often said that this isn't a popularity contest, but in this case part of it is. Have fun with it.

Any questions you have, ask me (KB or Lariat). Let the posting begin. Or, continue as all of you have posted before I guess.

Oh and the winner gets to request any PPV ever that they want reviewed, pending me being able to find it.

 

[NSL]

Dave > Ricky now...

But without Ricky helping Lee save the fed, there is no Dave...

 

[Super Crazy]

I agree with NSL on this. For that second reason alone, I pick Ricky.

 

[gd]

Hmmmm, tough one. Ricky, because he's an umpire.

 

[Phoenix]

It is a case of legacy vs. the present day.

While Ricky's legacy is great, Dave is on fire of late. Efed, Video Games, Thunder-Blog, Sigs, to name a few. These alone are great to put Dave up as worthy competition today.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Dave has been doing a lot lately. But has he had the audacity to call out Nick Paglino?

 

[gd]

He's not that stupid.

 

[Mr. TM]

Dave is my protege.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

He's not that stupid.

Stupid? To call out someone for committing injustices?

 

[Tenta]

This is the most difficult choice so far in the tournament. I love Ricky's work. He's articulate, intelligent, and a jam up guy.

But right now, Dave is simply blazing a trail of fire and pillaged villages. I have this guy going to the final four, I think that highly of him. Actually, whoever wins this match, in my estimate, goes to the Final Four. That's how much I respect both of these men.

Give me Dave.

Besides that. Ricky's legacy is cemented already. He should be a Hall of Famer. This tournament is Dave's time to shine.

 

[Cena's Little Helper]

Dave, 'nuff said.

 

[Dave]

Thanks for all the supports so far, guys.

It's a great honour to be holding my own against someone like Ricky. I know that he has a great legacy around these forums and this is a stern test. However. Ricky passed me the torch in WZCW to me indirectly and hopefully the same can happen here.

Thanks for any support.

Going after someone that strong and powerful? It can only lead to mutilation or insanity, or a combo of both.

I WANT MY TORCH BACK

 

[Dave]

I sold it to Phoenix.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

You would have been a Tory.

 

[48.7 is Approximately 49 Times Better Than You]

Ricky, because I think I have a shot at being competitive with him in round three.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

I passed to Phoenix first.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

Ricky, because I think I have a shot at being competitive with him in round three.

Yes...that's a completely legit move.

 

[X]

Ricky is Ricky so Ricky gets my Ricky.

 

[Dave]

Aw, X.

Your vote stung me to the bone.

 

[The Doctor]

Vote for Dave!

 

[Mantaur Rodeo Clown]

One of the toughest decisions yet. I'll go with Karnage Dave.

 

[Steamboat Ricky]

woah...that was a big swing.

 

[Dave]

It's very close and will probably continue to be.
