Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our 2020 WPC Grand Champion Celebration.

Over 2020 we have seen 28 competitors, make 2233 predictions on 22 events across 5 different wrestling promotions. We have seen nine individuals hold the World Prediction Championship across fourteen separate championship reigns and as a forum we have made 1314 correct predictions. It all culminates with this, the crowning of the 2020 WPC Grand Champion.

It all began with a hastily put together idea back on April 4th at Wrestlemania 36. Since that time what started out as an idea has become a phenomenom. The World Prediction Championship has evolved both into the name of the competition and complexity but one principle has remained the same. The person with the most correct predictions wins.

At our very first event our first World Champion was crowned. Booty made the most correct predictions and goes down in history as being the very first person to ever hold the World Prediction Championship. His 36 day reign is still the record for being the longest World Prediction Championship reign in history.

That is not the only record that has been created this year however. The individual with the most successful World Prediction Championiship defenses is the reigning WPC Champion, Chris - while those two successful defenses may not seem like a lot, it's a record that has stood since October and doesn't seem likely to be broken any time soon.

This year we saw Blaze become the first person to ever win the Championship on three separate occasions, with his first victory being the one that ended Bootys record breaking title reign.

We have seen 8 people score perfect rounds during an event, but only HoHo has achieved that feat more than once.

Across August and September we ran our first ever player vs player competition when we introduced the inaugural King of the Ring tournament. The eventual winner claimed the crown of King of the Ring for one calandar year as well as a World Prediction Championship match. King Raidokken did not waste the opportunity and claimed his second World Prediction Championship by ending Blaze's third championship reign.This kicked off our player vs player championship matches and also necessitated the creation of a new title...

At the beginning of October we introduced The Open the Prediction Championship. This is the title that signifies the number one contendership to the World Prediction Championship and, of the three individuals to hold that title so far, two have successfully claimed the World Prediction Championship to go along side it. The third will challenge for the WPC Championship once more at the first event of 2020.

This brings us to December. Across the month we have crowned our Divisional Champions for each of the promotions/divisions we have predicted on this year. You can view all of them, along with the top 5 performers in each division, by clicking here: https://wrestlingsmarks.com/threads/championship-history.113812/post-1712437.

Next years competition will run from January to December. Twelve months. The target is to prediction on a minimum of five events each for each of our five promotions and, once more, we will determine the greatest professional wrestling predictor in the entirety of the internet.

But, none of this is what you came for....

What you've come for is to find out who was the most consistant predictor over the past season. Who was right more often and consistantly than anyone else. Who knew what you didn't and claimed the grandest prize in the game because of it.

Well wait no more.

Ladies and Gentlemen, your....

Chris!!!

WPC END OF SEASON RANKINGS 2020

So, congratulations to Chris. Not only is he a two time World Prediction Champion but he is THE GRAND CHAMPION 2020.
​

I've included everybody that made any predictions this season in the end of season rankings so that we can all see how we did against everybody that has ever predicted.

I hope you enjoyed our game. If you've got any ideas for how to improve/mix things up for season 2 post in this thread about it and we'll see what everybody thinks.

Thankyou all for playing. Our new season is due to start with Wrestle Kingdom on January 4th (assuming no COVID Vacine created zombie appocolypse has taken place by then).

I'm going to leave you with this video. A celebration of our champions of 2020. Give it a watch then have a nice Christmas and a happy new year. Goodbye and goodnight!

Thanks a lot for running this Davey, this was a ton of fun.

Dude, if I didn't have "the real world" to get on with then this would be an absolute pleasure to run!

Still trying to work out whether people are watching the videos (It will save me time if they aren't but I like the idea of them) and what works and what doesn't (hence the request for ideas) but hopefully people enjoy joining in.

I've seen some peeps talk about the way it works now. Personally I think earning a title shot gives the whole thing more of a videogame type feel but, if that's not what people want, we'll go back to the previous method.

Likewise the "title for the highest scorer" theory was brought up by Lethal Banks, if that's the way we want to go then thats' ok too.

This lets me be involved in the forum in a (hopefully) meaningful way and lets me develop/utilise some of my data skills at the same time.

I hope everybody enjoyed it and, if they didn't, I hope they tell us why so that we can improve moving forwards

I'm kinda content with whatever tbh so I'm good with going with what the majority of the forum wants too.

Congrats @Chris Kringle on becoming the first WPC Grand Champion!

And many thanks to @Davey Wrestling on running this. It's been a lot of fun and it was a huge success.

[RDK]

Chris cheated. I object

It was a generally general mistake

 

[Carter]

Thank you @Davey Wrestling for taking time out of you're schedule to put this sweet game up for us, long may it continue" Thanks davey"

Hope you have a safe and good Xmas bro,

Carter.

 

[Carter]

I'm not mad!!! Look this is my face right now->

Hope this cheers you up haza, like you asked , you will receive mate.

 

[Carter]

Totally agree with @Lethal Banks about a TV title, soundsa sweet idea, lethal bro.

Also I know I asked a while back @Davey Wrestling but could we try a tag tourney and you pit the players together so there isn't any disadvantage to say the top player or the bottom player, could be fun, also can we do our own little promo to express our players points of view heel or face or even a tweener role they're doing , bro.

Think it would be cool , look forward to hearing other members roles.

Once again, thanks davey for letting me join earlier this year , I missed a couple due to a family member being really unwell, but I've took as much time as I need to help my family memeber get back to as best they can be ( God willing )

Have a sweet Xmas to all members and a have a safe new year.
