Montreal selects Gino Brito and Tony Parisi.

Montreal selects Pierre Lefebvre.

He's gone through KrisZ a few times on things. There's always that route as well.

I don't rate matches with stars or any system. I decide how much I enjoyed the match. I look at the structure and what they were trying to accomplish with the match and decide how well the workers did. I also think about the moments/spots that stood out to me and why. Putting a number of stars or a grade or a number of anything on it seems useless to me. I don't feel the need to rank and order wrestling matches. That feels like work. I just know what I like or don't and try to analyze matches to find out what causes those reactions. How may snowflakes anyone puts next to a given match means very little to me. Once I start seeing four or more I may put some thought into tracking said match down or rewatching, but I just don't care to describe matches in those terms.

I am out on booking them.

Don't fall for it!

There's going to be friction in something like this for sure. I feel like the only way your roster is something bad is if you don't like it. If you have idea about how to book it and they work it doesn't matter if you have *no* big names as far as national ambitions go. Part of the fun is seeing how people approach the different aspects of this. I do like how I could see myself working talent trades with every promotion given their rosters. And in all fairness to Parv the WWF always did have an all-star feel to the way their main event scene worked. I will agree that there has been some needless trolling at times, but I think we were all aware that was going to happen. And it makes it worse when you're pissed off that your next three picks just disappeared to begin with.

Parv does have a really good all-star promotion going for sure. I had hoped to grab either DeLuc or Bravo after building my tag division, but it fell through. I had to go with option #3 that could have waited another 3 or 4 rounds instead.

Montreal selects Armand Rougeau.

Either he's going to work a lower card program with Jordan or becomes his tag partner. That is, if they don't take a turn for the WWE and change directions completely.

I needed a manager that fit the Tongans. Albano seemed like the guy.

The International Wrestling Association has no problem with the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers traveling to Texas on 7/31 instead of 7/29.

I actually calculated Leduc and Dino Bravo just about right. I figured this was my round to take them or lose them. And they went a few picks before I had the chance, so yeah. It's okay, just would have been nice to have that secondary draw when I didn't have the Rougeaus around. It just ended up shooting Albano up by a round or two is all.

Montreal selects Captain Lou Albano.

I am up next, correct?

Honestly I'm just happy things have gone well since the Ronnie Garvin debacle. LaFon & Brunzell to me had two really great aspects to it. 1. LaFon as a young, high flying babyface could learn a lot from a guy like Brunzell. And the team just seems right. 2. LaFon is a great heel who can one day turn on Brunzell and create a feud in the process. The tag feud with the Tongans seems like a good way to get both into prominent roster spots as faces and heels also. I didn't think I'd be as lucky as I was with my first 7 picks netting me 4 really good (on paper, for the role they are designed to play) tag teams. I was thinking I'd have to scrounge over the next few drafts to find viable tag teams.

Phil LaFon (soon to be Dan Kroffat)

I now see why Kelly stays champ. The tie-breaker favors him! I call titans shenanigans! Really though, good stuff all around and an entertaining 45 minutes. Damn those Canadians for ruining the America dream.

I agree to the idea on the NWA President and board. Not yet being a member I will leave the Board and President to those who are more involved. I think the idea of actively trying to take over an occupied territory goes against the spirit of what we are doing. Once somebody drops out I agree with the idea of fighting for it. Injuries and retirement are fine, but I am perfectly willing to injure my own guys and send them wherever just to keep things fresh. I don't have any need to be involved with the freelancers/women/minis as far as controlling them. I think booking freelancers far in advance is a risk and ought to be treated as such. If somebody makes Bruiser Brody a better offer in the meantime do you think he's going to honor his spoken word agreement to show up in your promotion?

The International Wrestling Association accepts this offer.

The International Wrestling Association is willing to send the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers to the tournament provided two conditions are met. 1. They look good in their match and aren't buried on the finish. 2. Pay, hotel and travel are provided by Southwest and are up to the standards Southwest demands for their talent. I am confident that Joe Blanchard is more than willing to agree to these terms and look forward to working with him in the future.

I think it's opposite for the women though. You put the women who can work in NXT and throw the eye candy on the main show.

I have stated on multiple occasions that I am willing to work with others on talent. If it doesn't coincide with certain working agreements and my own schedule I'm open on dates as well as fair on terms.

Nothing personal, I assure you. I have a plan and I am sticking to it. Honestly, not getting Garvin in round one changed everything and my plans that came after that have all just worked through sheer luck of nobody picking who I wanted.

The Rougeaus are super over in Quebec, but they are not exactly good looking dudes. One blowjob babyface getting a good push can't hurt. And I didn't want to do a tag team with the early pick next round.
