    Hey Guys sorry about the delay. Depeche Mode (saturday night) and The Beatles GET BACK (sunday night) have had all my attention. Should be able to make a laptop to get this finished AQAP. Not the QFs like a stated earlier. There are NOW 8 teams left. I will give the half of the QF draw now. First to six goes through.


    Steiners and E&C go through in the last of the quarterfinal place.

    2/3 of TLC advance. DudleyZ have been by far the most impressive performers. Understandly a very highly rated team.

    Exact opposite!
    Acolytes Protection Agency and The Steiners.

    Never really considered DX a great tag team.

    APA and the Steiners

    if this was best I probably would go the opposite way but as its favourites I always liked the APA as a tag team (saw them more as a tag team than DX) and their music got a great reaction from me. Also The Hardys were great but I dont know if I liked them personally that much, prefered Lita to the 2 fellas

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    APA for sure! One of my all time favourite tag teams,

    And again big big Steiner mark, the Bulldogs were the only team I would vote against them and I'd put them as dark horses to reach the finals!

    Steiners by a mile. Other one is tough because DX went to crap. But I'll vote for them anyway.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    DX and the Hardys.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,852 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    That's that. The APA steamrolled DX and Hardyz beat the infinitely talented Steiner brothers (my pick to win it). It looks like the final are all competitors that have met on countless shows in a number of truly historic matches.

    If the Mods could highlight in the thread title that this is the final four that would be great.

    ****Semi Final 1****


    First to 10.

    Seems apt that all of the original TLC teams got through.

    The Hardys.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Can we eliminate them both? :pac:

    Neither deserve to be in the final.

    Edge and Christian I guess.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    Its tough and they are 2 great tag teams with such memorable matches but my vote goes to
    E&C

    Neither are even close to the Steiners, Road Warriors or Team 3D.

    Think people are voting based on TLC and nothing else.
