This is a non-canon Orochi-O's Zone "Blizzard Battle Bowl" tournament 
I random selected the teams but only accepted UBL and the FPCPP edits I had on my OG-FPD save. I was pleased I got so many UBL wrestlers for random select as usually I get the defaults 75% of the time. The first 8 wrestlers randomly selected were all UBL then I had to be more patient as Joshi and defaults started mixing in the random select. Here's a video to see the teams and brackets for those who are curious:

The infinity symbol wrestler tagged with Kyle was actually Goothulu :ak: which was awesome given Kyle's Jinchuu campaign against Gooses. It was less awesome as they were eliminated in the first round :lol:
Zuna is Yoshirozuna as a few of you may remember from when I posted the Immovable RP in November and then disappeared before posting part 2 :oops: Yoshirozuna and Allen Riggs made an awesome team and kicked ass.
The Orochi teaming with (Flip) Staley is actually Orochi GUS which Staley was not pleased with.
There was one huge upset to start the tag tournament part of the Battle Bowl. In the very first match!
White Dragon and Lucha La Barba defeated Mr. Figaro and Jakob of Furis :shock:
White Dragon made one of the best face comebacks ever against Mr. Figaro and put him away.
They then went on to face Geese Walker (modern OG) and Tetsu.... and beat them too :shock:
Sickest victory goes to Laser Sight who used his rare "Big flame/explosion" move to CRITICAL! Goro Yamashita. Those familiar with Goro's past will remember his pre-UBL burning incident and the time when Jinchuu set his legs on fire. So for him to be CRITICALED by fire was FPR pretty much nodding to me and going "what's up, I got your story back."
Coolest victory goes to Laser Sight (again) in another match who got the hot tag from a VERY worn down Tenshi. Within two seconds of entering the ring, Sight hits a stunner (his main match finisher) which he follows up with a pin to win!! I can't recall seeing FPR do such a decisive and immediate hot tag victory like that before!!
Some really great teamwork and matches overall. I liked seeing many of the UBL wrestlers battle previous PW-W wrestlers and FPCPP wrestlers. I love Battlebowls in general and this one has delivered so far.
When the tag tournament is over, in Battle Bowl fashion, the wrestlers from the 4 top teams will go into a Battle Royale. I think I'm going to have the tournament actually finish though and then have a seeding system where the winners of the tournament get placed later in a time entrance Battle Bowl (in Royal Rumble season spirit).
Semifinals:
Yoshirozuna and Allen Riggs played spoiler to the awesome underdog team of White Dragon and Lucha La Barba. Riggs CRITICALLED! LLB with the Anaconda Vice to end the match around the 15 minute mark.
RYOMA and El Palida defeated NSL and Dean Annay in an exciting match which ended by Palida rolling up Dean.
Finals:
VIDEO - Yoshirozuna/Allen Riggs vs. RYOMA/El Palida Fantasma (The Grey Phantom)
SPOILERS:
Aside from some very quick effective striking from Palida (that actually tripped Riggs up!), it looked like Yoshiro and Riggs were going to steamroll to victory. So RYOMA's comeback was AWESOME to me. He was getting destroyed and pulled out a massive spirit boost out of nowhere. But the damage was done and Yoshirozuna hit his Sumoshiro Slam (a move that has CRITICALLED! wrestlers in this tournament and in canon stories) on RYOMA for the win!
Congratulations to Yoshirozuna and Allen Riggs for winning the Blizzard Bowl Tag Tournament!!
I will be running the Battle Royale now and posting it tonight. Here is the order and explanation:
LLB
Dean Annay
White Dragon
NSL
RYOMA
Palida Fantasma
Allen Riggs
Yoshirozuna
LLB lost the match for the first semi-finals but Dean lost the second semi-finals. I alternated the teammates. Then I had the tournament winners take the last two spots, with Yoshirozuna getting spot 8 for winning.
Here is the Battle Royale Finale to the (non-canon) Blizzard Bowl!
I had to split this into two videos cause the match was a little over the Youtube 15 minute limit.
Part 1 - Blizzard Bowl Battle Royale
Part 2 - Blizzard Bowl Battle Royale
SPOILERS
What wowed me about this Battle Royale is how it seemed to follow the tournament! A lot of feuds that developed during the tag matches continued here, specifically the Finals. Palida and RYOMA each went after Yoshirozuna and Riggs. White Dragon and LLB also wanted revenge on Yoshirozuna and Riggs. Riggs was having his day here only to be met by a furious barrage by NSL at the end. NSL actually takes out Riggs only to fall to a determined RYOMA who eliminateshim via powerbomb right after delivering two powerbombs to the massive Yoshirozuna!
RYOMA wins the Blizzard Bowl!! :markout:
