The 2022 Bracket Battle - Who Will Reign Supreme?

Bracket Battle 2022: Super Squads

April is a month of newness as we exit our winter hiatus and leave March Madness behind. Here on THWACK, we welcome the annual SolarWinds Bracket Battle! Built on a premise you’ll find inspiring, spirited, and motivational as you campaign for your favorite, the yearly Bracket Battle is your chance to let your voice be heard. 

This year, we have come together to present you with some epic battles! We welcome you to the 2022 SolarWinds Bracket Battle:

Battle of Super Squads!

This year you pick the best of two squads in each round as they square off head-to-head. Do you think the squad from Average Joe’s can take on the ’92 Dream Team? How about the Muppets vs. Peanuts? Now is your time to get out there and campaign for your favorite squad.

These 33 squads have been taken from movies and television and features squads from several different genres playing for dominance as picked by you, the all-knowing and opinionated THWACK® community.

How It Works:

 Matchup Analysis:

  • For each Battle of the Super Squad matchup, we’ve provided short descriptions of each squad—some of these may require a trip on the Wayback Machine
  • Anyone can view the bracket and matchups, but to vote or comment, you must have a THWACK account

  • I'm betting on the twelve year gap between the '92 Olympics and 2004 when Dodgeball was released for the odds that the members of the Dream Team were retired and broken by time the movie came out.  Since the two groups couldn't have competed until both groups were in existence, the battle between them could not have taken place until 2004 at the earliest.  But if we are talking about them competing in the current time, I think Average Joe's will tuck the Dream Team in to sleep.
