One thing I was wondering... a non-issue because you won anyway. But i gave Cena 10 points for being in the crowd. Anyone think he should have gotten 10 each time they showed him in the crowd like we do when a person is in the back watching on a camera? I scored it equivalent to him doing commentary. So 10 points PPV in ring promo essentially.
So do we agree with that scoring? And makes me wonder should we continue to give 2 points every time they show a person backstage watching the monitor? Or just one time because the scene doesn't really change?
We are not drafting this week. I need the break and we can start next Wednesday after the super star shake up anyway. Summer season is long, so no rush.

I agree with the one time points, if we started doing it every time someone could score really high without ever doing anything.

So... do we start doing it the same way for the classic "backstage watching the monitor" -- just 2 points one time?
Or call it 5 since they are sort of interacting with what is going on in the ring? Or just give them 2 every time they show them?
If I’m understanding correctly, I used to give 2 points one time for backstage monitor watching. So for example, Cesaro and Sheamus watching monitor of a match to decide who faces them. They are shown 3x during the match. I only gave 2 total points.

I feel like I have given every time I see them because they cut away and go back it's like a new scene. I am thinking of that anniversary show with the poker game for one.

I remember that scene. Tricky. I'd say separate points in that case because it kept involving new people and different angles. When guys just watch a TV backstage it generally lasts one match and nothing happens.

We need to vote on this Greatest Royal Rumble event. I lean towards scoring. But we are going to need to update our guidelines on what gets scored. This is being treated as a PPV I feel but it's confusing.
As far as the greatest rumble goes I vote a big NAY to scoring it as scoring it as they are only including male talents in the matches due to the WWE not wanting to lose all that fat woman hating Saudi oil lucre.

I'm going to vote to score it. It sucks and it's an injustice that there won't be women there; but the big time matches they have booked will make for some good watching.
I’ll vote no because they aren’t including women, which has become a huge part of this league.

I think it should be scored, it's WrestleMania level on some accounts.

I do feel it's PPV caliber and should be scored. But trying to figure out how to draw definitive lines on what to score and what not to when it comes to these specials. Perhaps if it is aired "live"? Or at least tape delay. Like the Mae Young or cruisereright classic were not getting scored. But would that MSG show in zJanuary? That was essentially a house show.

Would advise to score it as a regular ppv

I believe it will be live since it airs 12pm (EST) here which is 7pm in Jeddah. Definitely PPV scoring.

To me, the women thing is a non issue cause thats just kind of a one time fluky thing. And with a 50 man rumble you can fill out a starting lineup rather easily. So nobody is losing points unless they have a team of 6 women or something.
