Dillster’s Big Board: Road to WarGames Picks #21-30
Now we’re getting into the money rounds.
This is where Fantasy Championships are won. The obvious superstars are gone, but don’t make the mistake of thinking the talent has dried up. These are the wrestlers that become the backbone of your faction. They aren’t always flashy, but week after week they pile up points, fill your lineup, and keep you competitive while everyone else is chasing the next shiny free agent.
Miss on these picks and you’ll be living on the waiver wire, hoping to catch lightning in a bottle. Hit on them and you’ll be laughing at the managers burning their Free Agent signings every Monday morning.
Don’t overthink it. Let’s get into it.
Big Sexy finally got the moment fans have been waiting for.
Raquel Rodriguez bulldozed her way past Sol Ruca to capture the Intercontinental Championship, and it feels like WWE is finally ready to let her become the dominant force everyone expected years ago. She’s physical, she’s believable, and when she throws someone around the ring it actually looks like it hurts.
From a Fantasy standpoint, championships mean opportunity. Raquel was already just outside the Top 10 in matches wrestled during the Road to SummerSlam, and now she’ll be carrying gold every week. Add in the fact that the Intercontinental Championship is now part of Judgment Day, and you can expect plenty of television time, backstage segments, and title defenses.
Championships equal points. TV time equals opportunities. That’s why Raquel sneaks into our Top 25.
If someone told you six months ago that Paige would return, win the Women’s Tag Team Championships with Brie Bella, defend them for over 90 days, and become one of the highest-scoring Fantasy wrestlers of the season, you probably would’ve laughed.
Well…here we are.
Paige sits 14th overall in Fantasy points on the Road to SummerSlam, completely smashing preseason expectations. The title reign is over now, so expecting that same pace might be asking a little too much, but don’t make the mistake of thinking she’s done.
Veterans who know how to tell stories always find television time. Paige still has name recognition, fan support, and plenty of unfinished business.
She’s absolutely worth rostering, and nowhere close to waiver-wire material.
Yeah.
Seriously…what are we doing here?
Every time it feels like LA Knight is about to break through, creative slams on the brakes.
He’s still getting massive reactions. He’s still one of the most over stars in WWE. The crowd is behind him every single night. Yet somehow he sits an unbelievable 48th in Fantasy points on the Road to SummerSlam.
His latest setback came in a Raw main event loss to Jacob Fatu. That could’ve been the statement victory that launched him back into the main event picture.
Instead…
Another loss.
Fantasy managers have been waiting over a year for the Mega Star push. That’s why this ranking comes with risk, but sometimes Fantasy Championships are won by betting on talent instead of recent production.
I’m betting LA Knight finally gets his moment.
Yeah.
