WWE: The Real Tough Guy Tournament, Rattlesnake Region

The first Region of the Real Tough Guy Tournament is the Rattlesnake Region, named after No. 1 seed Stone Cold Steve Austin.

For those that missed the first post, the Real Tough Guy Tournament is a 64-man tourney to decide who is the toughest guy in the WWE (some past, most present). Looking past scripted story, decided finishes and breakaway tables, if all of this was real, and these guys fought in a real life, Last Man Standing Match, who would win? Your votes will decide.

For the first round, because there are so many wrestlers, only the WWE accomplishments will be placed under each name (WCW will be used if won after Invasion Angle).

In the later rounds, characteristics and previous experience (football, MMA, amateur wrestling) will be noted in matchups.

So let the voting begin. Just vote in the comment section.

Enjoy, guys.
