Well, we're gonna do it one cycle early this year....
Starting on the first Aggression after Black Dawn, we will be doing our semi-annual KING OF THE CAGE: TAG TEAM EDITION once again.
For those of you who are EPW veterans, you know what this means. For those of you who have never done King of the Cage, it's a lethal lottery style tag team tournament with all matches contested in a steel cage, no disqualification, pinfalls, submissions or cage escape to win. The final match in the tournament will be the main event of the following PPV, which this year is UNLEASHED 2012.
I'll have more information as we get closer to the start of things, but in general, everyone will be randomly paired with another character, except for existing tag teams, who have the option of entering as a team. I'll randomly seed the tournament, and we'll proceed in single elimination fashion until we have our finals for the PPV. The Tag Team Champions are automatically entered, and EVERY MATCH along their path in the tournament will be for the titles. The only added stipulation to win the titles is that you must beat the champs by pinfall or submission to win the belts. You cannot win by escaping the cage. Thus, it is possible for the champs to lose and retain the titles. What this ensures is that one way or another the finals of this tournament will be for both the title KINGS OF THE CAGE and the EPW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP.
This will be the driving focus of that PPV cycle, however, as teams are eliminated, other matches and feuds will develop from that as well. These will be added to shows and highlighted just as they always would.
More info to come, or, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
WOOT.
