411’s Smackdown Report 2.09.07

Welcome everybody to 411’s Smackdown Report this week. As always, I am here to bring you some Smackdown goodness. No fancy intro this week so let’s just jump into it. Here is how the point system for Smackdown Wrestler of the Year works:

1. The winner of each match will receive two points unless it is by count out or DQ in which they will receive one point.
2. The winner of a title match will receive an additional point for retaining and two additional points for winning a belt.
3. The winner of the main event will get an additional point.
4. The winner of a specialty match will get an additional point.
5. In a tag team match, a wrestler on the winning team that does not pick up the win will get one point. If the match ends in a DQ or a DRAW, both members of the winning team will get one point.
6. If the match ends in a draw, all wresters involved will get half a point for participating.
7. If it is an elimination match, each elimination is worth one point.
8. If the match is for example, a Best Two Out of Three Falls Match or an Iron Man Match, each fall is worth one point.
9. Wrestlers can only get points from Friday Night Smackdown.
