Weekly Rankings Recap - 9/10/2017

We're still a couple of weeks away, but Night of Champions VI is already starting to shape-up. I'm looking forward to seeing what DECEPTION can do, but I'm not sure anybody will be able to stop The_Purple_Bunny & Mimik as long as their alliance holds true! We should see plenty more entrants announced in the coming days and weeks. It's getting exciting!

The Duo Division feels very vibrant right now, even as we venture towards another irregular choice of contenders. What DaemonX & Shen_DuHBK lack in experience as a team, they make up for with fire and determination. Their win over rxvt & deadly on Friday was some kind of token gesture, but it's really about the tension of The Invasion, and their desire to beat CCShadow & Scott-Howell!

The champs have had their fair share of unusual contenders, but they've also proven they can go with the biggest names in the league. I would've loved to see The New Generation going for gold. They broke back into the Duo Top 10 this week with their victory on Friday. It seems like "Mad Dog" Onryo will use that win to finally reach for the Division 2 Championship, but nothing's certain - even if it seems like it is!

I really thought Mime was headed for the KFL Championship record books! What an amazing win for "Champion of Champions" Poasty, who took full advantage of the open challenge scenario! It's been a helluva year for Poasty, who just last month was fighting for the Undisputed Championship! I think this is a good level for him. The KFL title will help him build the next phase of his career!
