Re: TEAM Titles: Champions, Banked Shots and Rankings

Shane G. informed me that he's pulling out of active competition in most of the feds he's in for now. TEAM is one of those feds. Rather than jobbing him out in the SSIII Challenge Championship match due to an automatic no-show, I'm removing IrishRed from the match and giving him a banked shot at the Challenge Championship. Shane deserves a chance to compete for that title, and I don't think real life issues should preclude him from taking that shot.

So now the match at SSIII will be a three-way dance with Nova, Ravager and Chaos.

Re: TEAM Titles: Champions, Banked Shots and Rankings

Since Jason Payne is getting an outright shot at the CoC, I'm going to bump him from the contenders match and make it James Irish against Nova.
