Welcome back to the Tournament to End All Tournaments! WHOOOOOOO! It seems I overestimated Steve Buscemi in this one. But, as they say, the better man wins. We'll see how Ric Flair fares in the later rounds. I have a treat for you all today.
Help me find out who the most awesome/badass character/person of all time is!
How would one accomplish such a task? Why by pitting every awesome and/or badass person/character/historical figure in a 512-person bracket style tournament that leaves only one person standing in the end. Who will it be? You will decide.
There is no voting criteria. You can vote for a participant based on whatever you please. If you feel that person would be the victor in a fist fight, or if you think they're more badass, more epic, have better hair, or if you just like one better than the other. It's completely up to you, the voter. I want people to have fun with this, and perhaps imagine the two participants squaring off face to face.
Again with the wrestlers? I swear I'm not doing this intentionally, but then who could plan this one? I guess I'm safe. I can't really say this is one of your standard real life vs. movie battle. I think it far exceeds that. We have former WWF World Heavyweight Champion The Iron Sheik, taking on the reason people were afraid to go into the ocean in the '70s, Jaws! Umm, could the Sheik even put the shark into the camel clutch? I don't know, you figure it out.
