OK, did not know that.

So Wrestler A's RPI goes down some from my previous calculations because the good guys he lost to, lose some wins off their record (their win % goes down); and it goes up some because the bad guys he beat, lose some losses off their record (their win % goes up).

Wrestler B's RPI goes down some because the bad guys he lost to, lose some wins off their record (their win % goes down); and it goes up some because the good guys he beat, lose some losses off their record (their win % goes up).

But I don't think you can determine how much the RPI's change (how much their opponent's W-L records change) without exact numbers.

Am I right? (Probably not)
