What kind of rules are you thinking? If we just do a simple huge draft with 10 people per se and then with your roster of maybe 25 to 30 rounds you create one big show I think that would be pretty simple right? I think if we use the parameter 1988 to 1994. Perhaps make a list of qualified tag teams and just like other drafts if you draft a tag team they take up two rounds. We could always add in the idea of Japanese Talent along with Mexican Talent along with North American talent in a real hodgepodge if people wanted. If you wanted to make more than one show that would be up to you but it would be just a simple project with the draft being the biggest part of it. Perhaps when you draft somebody you kind of put the year of them that you want. For instance if I were to draft Vader I would have a 1992 behind it saying that is the year in which I would want him in his prime. What do you guys think?

Yeah, I am high on the Fabs and thought the hybrid of Barry and Tito would do way better than a Barry/Luger/Rhodes or Tito/Martel combo as they both have got tremendous skills. It is a stacked division right now for sure..

WWF Presents: Saturday Night’s Main Event IV Nassau Coliseum - Long Island, New York Hosted by Vince McMahon & Jesse Ventura Ted Dibiase w/ One Man Gang & Bossman: Well boys and girls… tonight's the night. Tonight is the night that I, Ted Dibiase BUY the WWF title from Hulk Hogan… now Hulk Hogan is going to have to pay the ultimate price for it to happen. You see the One Man Gang is not here to trick or treat… but he is here to hit and beat… and he is going to do that to you Hulk Hogan… he’s going to hit you until he beats you and there’s nothing you can do about it. HAHAHAHA! Jimmy Hart: What a night baby, what a night. Tonight, I have got the Hammer ready to put an end to Billy Jerk Haynes and then… oh baby… then the hottest tag team in all of wrestling makes their debut! It is going to be a FABULOUS NIGHT!! Bobby Heenan: You know a lot of people get nervous about the bright lights of NBC and Saturday Night’s Main Event… but not the Heenan Family. Even without Chris Adams, I have got two of the best right here in Gino Hernandez and Rick Rude… and don’t forget, the strongest man in the world is right here if we need him! Tito Santana: You know something Barry, I have had my eyes on gold for a long time. I have been looking to get my hands on the Macho Man, but brother tonight I am focused on being there for you and being a champion! Barry Windham: That’s right brother… you know Bobby Heenan and his Family if you call it have got some major problems. The biggest problem they got is me and you and tonight, what gold they have we’re going to take and brother there will be no looking back! Hulk Hogan: Knock knock… who’s there… Boo…. Boo Who… Don’t Cry Ted Dibiase because Halloween is right around the corner and the biggest surprise of them all is coming tonight dude. You may have one of the baddest dudes in wrestling ready for a fight but brother when it comes down to you are are miles away from Hulkamania and I am going to show everyone why it is the strongest force in the world and WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN HULKAMANIA BANKRUPTS YOUUUUU!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnTlgxhuexc Vince McMahon: Welcome everyone to the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York! I am Vince McMahon alongside Jesse the Body Ventura and Jesse, what a card we have here tonight, headlined by a WWF Championship match between the One Man Gang and Hulk Hogan! Jesse Ventura: Don’t kid around McMahon… it won’t be a match… it will be a beating! Hogan is still reeling after the Main Event II less than a month ago. He has also got Ted Dibiase on his mind! Plus… tonight he is in there with 500 pounds of the ONE MAN GANG! Vince: The odds will be certainly stacked against him Jesse, also tonight we will see the tag team titles on the line as Rick Rude substitutes in for Chris Adams to defends the titles against Tito Santana and Barry Windham. Jesse: A lot of people have been talking that without Adams, the Duo are bust… well I am here to tell you that Rick Rude is more than comparable inside that ring and those titles aren’t going anywhere. Vince: Plus tonight we see the debut of the Fabulous Ones! Jesse: I love these two. I have seen them wrestle all over the world. They are top class because you know that Jimmy Hart wouldn’t accept anything less! Vince: Be that as it may… fans it is time for our opening contest… let’s head to the ring! Billy Jack Haynes vs Greg Valentine w/ Jimmy Hart -A great opener here tonight with Billy Jack Haynes who is just STACKED and has got some good crowd following. Valentine is a workhorse but Billy Jack is keeping him on his toes. They go about 12-minutes before Jimmy Hart tries to get involved but ends up being the distraction for Billy Jack to nail the Hammer with a big forearm right to the jaw that knocks him silly before rolling him up for a pinfall! Vince and Jesse put this over and talk about how Jimmy Hart didn’t want his night to start like this! *COMMERCIAL* *SNME is back and inside the ring is the One Man Gang with Ted Dibiase and Big Bossman. Dibiase isn’t quite Million Dollar Man… but more of a Ric Flair hybrid with the MDM. He has got a slick ass suit on and is working the crowd. Bossman has the haliburton that we assume is full of money. Vince and Jesse put it over as we cut to Mean Gene! Mean Gene: Welcome back to SNME fans, I am Gene Okerlund and we are moments away from the big WWF Title defense… come on in here right now Hulk Hogan. You are about to step into that ring with the One Man Gang but we have seen… he will not be alone. The founder of Money Inc., Ted Dibiase is there with his head of security, the Big Bossman! Hulk Hogan: Well you know something Mean Gene… when you walk around with this title brother, it is the biggest target that you could imagine. Look at how it pulled the multi-million dollar man Ted Dibiase to come back to the WWF and try and take it from me dude. He gave me that blank check and brother you can guess where I told him to shove it dude! Mean Gene: But tonight, you go against the One Man Gang… what do you have for backup in case things get out of hand? Hulk Hogan: The story goes like this Mean Gene… when push comes to shove… you push as hard as you can until you can’t push anymore… well brother when you have got those guys pushing you… you find someone to help you push back and I have found him… let’s do it dude! Mean Gene: Oh my… Hulk Hogan is on his way to the ring!! WWF CHAMPIONSHIP Hulk Hogan © vs The One Man Gang w/ Ted Dibiase & Big Bossman -A big time championship match and there is a lot of extra curricular outside the ring with Dibiase and Bossman there and it almost gets the best of Hogan and the referee but then Hogan stops the match and goes up to the middle rope and waves at the back… wait just a moment… here comes ANDRE THE GIANT! Hogan has evened up the odds and here we go! We come back from commercial and this one is starting to heat up. They go about 15-minutes and it is a great showing with Hogan selling like crazy for the One Man Gang. He’s making him look like a million dollars, pun intended, and Vince and Jesse are putting him through the roof.Andre almost comes to blows with the Bossman outside the ring which serves as an opportunity for Dibiase to get involved in the match. He nails Hogan in the back with the haliburton and Hulkster is in trouble! This paves the way for the OMG to beat him down before hitting the 747 and a big two count before Hogan Hulks up! He battles back and hits the big boot and then a bodyslam that shakes the ring! He goes for the legdrop but before the referee can hit three, here comes Bossman and nails him with the briefcase again! We get a DQ finish and here comes Dibiase in as they are laying Hogan out. Andre is able to pop into the ring and they back off. Money Inc. retreats to the back with Hogan helped up by Andre. The champion may have reigned supreme for the time being,but man o man is there more to this one in the future! *COMMERCIAL* -SNME is back with Vince and Jesse putting over the big WWF Championship match. They talk about the combination of Money Inc and the pairing of Hogan and Andre. They put over how we won’t be back on NBC for SNME until Saturday December, 21st. They wonder what will develop by the time we get to that point. They put over the remaining bouts on the card as we cut to our next contest. Manny Fernandez vs Sika w/ Mr. Fuji -A surprisingly good brawl for these two men. Manny Fernandez is trying to find his groove in the WWF and does so with this matchup against Sika in many ways. He has got the in ring ability and a good crowd following. Mr. Fuji is outside the ring and he pushing his man on as we see Sika control the contest before Fernandez finds a way to fight back. We get a crazy moment in which Sika headbutts Fernandez and just BUSTS HIM WIDE OPEN! I am talking a GUSHER as blood is coming down his. The referee has to get in there and ends up calling the match for blood. Sika wipes the blood across his chest as Fernandez is doing everything he can to get back in there and get him some! -We then cut to Jimmy Hart who is backstage with the Fabulous Ones… they have got their white suits and top hats on as Jimmy is pumping them up in a big way! *COMMERCIAL* -SNME returns with an elaborate entrance for the Fabulous Ones. They come down to some special music and then we see Jimmy Hart leading them out to the ring, behind them are Valentine and Honky, and bringing up the caboose are the Anvil and the Hitman. They get into the ring and do a little dance and shimmy before taking off their garb and getting ready for the match. For what it’s worth, the Anvil and Hitman don’t seem pleased! Jim Powers & Paul Roma vs The Fabulous Ones w/ Jimmy Hart -This one is a glorified squash as Roma and Powers make the Fabulous Ones look VERY strong here tonight. It is as though Kiern and Lane can do no wrong and they are fluid in that ring. Vince and Jesse really pump them up and put them over. Roma and Powers get a little movement but nothing special. The finish sees Jimmy Hart get the Hitman and the Anvil to pull Roma down and distract him before the Fabulous Ones grab Powers and hit him with a double brainbuster suplex! Kiern pins him for the 1….2….3!! The Fabs get the win and look fantastic doing it. They work the crowd while Jimmy and his cronies are giving them some hype. Could this be the team to dominate the WWF? Does Jimmy Hart have the diamond in the rough? *COMMERCIAL* -SNME is back with Vince and Jesse putting over the night’s action and talking about hearing from Hulk Hogan later on in the broadcast. They turn their attention to the tag team ranks of the WWF with the champions Gino Hernandez & Chris Adams. They put over how Adams was hurt but Rick Rude is going to do more than just fill the void for the team! They put over how Windham and Santana may not be a team but have been partners before and know each other well! We cut to the ring for the main event! TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP Tito Santana & Barry Windham vs Gino Hernandez & Rick Rude © w/ Bobby Heenan -A more modern esq tag team with Tito and Windham who have got the pedigree for success while Hernandez & Rude have got all the makings of a heat magnet team. This one goes about 15-minutes and we get a commercial break in the middle. These four all get a chance to throw in that ring and the crowd gets white hot for Windham and Gino who really stand toe to toe in the middle of the ring. The real heat comes with Hernandez and Santana who have got some unspoken hatred going on and they don’t hold back on throwing some big time blows. Jesse says that Heenan has got these guys ready while Vince is exclaiming that Windham and Tito can get it done! *COMMERCIAL* -We return for the big finish as we see Gino and Rude doing some underhanded tactics to keep control of the contest. They are pulling out all the stops and putting forth a good effort here but when Windham gets tagged in, the crowd explodes. Windham comes with rights and lefts that shake the ring and turn the tide. This brings Hercules out with Heenan directing traffic. The crowd is on edge as Hercules looks to use the chain but out of the back runs Billy Jack Haynes and he ends up nailing Rude in the back with the chain! Windham comes out of corner and BULLDOGS RUDE! 1….2…..3!! WE HAVE NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! WE HAVE NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!! Tito and Windham are going nuts here as Billy Jack joins them in the ring. They hold the titles high in the air and McMahon is going wild! Rude is being helped to the back, holding his back while Heenan is crying. Gino Hernandez is irate right now as this is pure chaos! Windham and Santana celebrate while Vince and Jesse put it over and talk about speaking with Hulk Hogan when we come back! *COMMERCIAL* Mean Gene: Welcome back to SNME folks, I am Gene Okerlund and with me at this time is the REIGNING WWF CHAMPION, Hulk Hogan. Hulkster, what a night… Hulk Hogan: Well cut my legs off and call me shorty Mean Gene. What a night brother… I know that a lot of the glory is on Hulkamania right now, but I want to welcome in two of the baddest dudes I know… -In walk NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, Barry Windham and Tito Santana. They are swarmed by Hogan, Andre, Brutus Beefcake, Billy Jack, and the Fantastics. They are celebrating and pouring champagne all over. Mean Gene: There you have it, the NEW tag team champions Windham and Santana… the WWF Champion Hulk Hogan… Hulkster I would say things are going well! Hulk Hogan: Well brother you look around this room and you see the best of the best of the best in professional sports dude. You are talking about tag team excellence and right here, this belt shows that Hulkamania is the strongest force in the world. When it comes down to it, there is no tomorrow for any of us because we are living so wild and free today! Ted Dibiase, you found out tonight dude that not everybody has a price. Not every man has got a number for you and what you stand for. Now… your time is coming. Since you came to the WWF, you have yet to step into that right and brother I think it is high time that Ted Dibiase and Hulk Hogan get in that ring and settle the thing so WHATCHA GONNA DO TED DIBIASE WHEN THE INTERNAL REVENUE OF HULKAMANIA COMES TO AUDIT YOU! Mean Gene: Fans there you have it, Vince and Jesse back out to you! -We cut back out to Vince and Jesse who put this over in a big way. They talk about the big debut of the Fabulous Ones and how they are catapulted into the title picture. They put over the new champions and Jesse says that he thinks it was a fluke and Heenan will get his men ready to go when the time is right! Vince then pumps up Hulk Hogan higher than anything. He says that he is without a doubt the best in professional wrestling and Ted Dibiase will rue the day he challenged the Hulkster! They pump up the next edition of SNME on NBC on December the 21st! We will see you then!

Gorilla and Bobby put over the debut of the Fabs tonight on SNME but one has to wonder if the Harts aren’t being left out of the equation. They win with the Hart Attack and look good but for how long? *Special promo with Jimmy Hart unveiling his new team… The Fabulous Ones! Steve Kiern and Stan Lane. They video hypes them talking with the girls and putting over how they aren’t just the best looking team in wrestling but the most dangerous! The video hypes how they will debut at Saturday Night’s Main Event tonight!!* Brutus Beefcake defeated Johnny Williams Honky Tonk: You know something Brutus Beefcake. I am so sick and tired of hearing about how you like to do a hair cut on your opponent. Well know this my man… me and my barber are the only ones to touch this beautiful hair and if you think you can get your hands on it, boy you are in line for a trip to heartbreak hotel, you know what I am saying!

They finish with the Decapitation Device and we hear Gorilla say that these guys are on the hunt for some titles and it could come sooner than later if they get their shot! Barry Windham & Tito Santana defeated Los Conquistadors -We finally get a chance to see these two in action as a team and they don’t disappoint. Gorilla and Bobby put over how they are very good singles wrestlers but as a team they can’t stand up to the Dynamic Duo… Gorilla corrects him though and says when they go for the titles… it is going to be Gino and Rude… not Gino and Adams! Regardless, tonight they look great and we see a big flying forearm from Tito on Conquistador I for the 3-count.

WWF NEWS -A lot of little tidbits going around the WWF right now; -The first bit of major news is that Chris Adam’s knee injury is said to be more serious than expected. He tweaked it during a television taping a couple of weeks ago and has since not been able to rehab it. He was sent home to get some work done on the knee but has already told those who will listen that he isn’t coming back. He has already sent feelers to MACW and the AWA along with heading back to his home base of Texas. It will be interesting to see if he does stay with it and leaves because if he does where does Gino Hernandez go? Hernandez is one of Vince McMahon’s prize pupils if you will. He sees a lot of money in Gino and many wondered why they took the IC title off of him the way they did only for him to regain the tag titles that quickly. Hernandez and Heenan have gotten along well but with so many things, life on the road is tough. There are plenty of rumors surrounding Gino Hernandez’ nightlife and extra curricular activities. He has been pretty good about such things since being in New York and the WWF but still has his concerns. When Gary Hart left the company a couple of months ago, many thought Gino would go too. When Kerry Von Erich when back to Dallas, many thought he would go then. Now with Chris Adams presumably on the go… will this be Gino’s final straw to leave the WWF or will it be the time when we get to see just how bright he can shine on the biggest stage in professional wrestling? -Expect a quick push for the Fabulous Ones. They have come in with some high praise from Jimmy Hart but also Randy Savage. The Fabs were actually set to come into the WWF in July but plans changed that quickly. It appears now they have some muscle behind their arrival and time will tell how well they do under the microscope of the WWF. -Andre the Giant is back healthy and ready to go. There were some grumblings about him not going on the road with the rest of the boys, but his back has been giving him trouble recently due to his weight gain, so it is an understanding that he is going through some tough physical times. -Jake Roberts has been very vocal of his lack of push. He feels like there is money to be earned in other places around the country and has sent out feelers. Nothing has come back to where he will go but he could slither away if the right opportunity showed itself. -The WWF dropped the Hercules Strongman gimmicks after a recent news article broke about kids trying to pull each other with chains and being choked. This is in no way the first time this angle has been done but perhaps the first time it was done on this big of scale. The WWF legal team took care of things but don’t expect Hercules to be pushing any cars around soon and that could spell trouble for him. -The WWF is supposedly offering contracts to some wrestlers they scouted at the 1985 NCAA Wrestling Championships. Gerald Brisco was in attendance and saw some talent that he was high on and could end up with the WWF before too long. -Expect to see some younger talent coming through while older talent is being fleshed out over the next couple of months. The WWF is looking to get some younger guys in including a young rookie from Florida named Ed Ganter. He has got a great look and the WWF things there is money to be had. Look for him to jump on to All American in the coming weeks. -Lord Alfred Hayes has left the company and will no longer be hosting All-American. That duty now goes to Gene Okerlund and Pat Patterson. While the WWF is on the road, they will tape special segments in which Patterson tries different foods and sees different sights from around America. Okerlund and Patterson are closer, personal, friends so this will be a good pairing. In regards to comedy, it will be there, entertainment it will be there, but wrestling… that may be the one thing this show will lack.

I think we get a list of people interested think of a couple little guidelines and maybe put together a full list with the greatest wrestler of all time names and some outliers. Then we do the draft and maybe you can showcase your roster with one major show.

Nice... would be a fun undertaking here with enough people involved. I'd be in and willing to put together a list with someone else if interested. Even if we used the PWO Greatest Wrester List as a starting point.

What was the template?

Pretty sure one of those trainers with Angle was Darin Corbin of MN Indy Wrestling Fame.

If I were going straight 1988-1994... 1. Hogan as my draw... I think it's been shown that he was possibly the only major draw in professional wrestling during that time period. 2. Sting as my up and comer... He was a better worker than Warrior and with the right setting he could have had a different career trajectory. 3. I really tossed it up for the 3rd pick... I mean Flair is the obvious choice... but the other part of me wants to pick someone off the cuff... given his 1988-94 are very strong... I would look at Rick Rude to be that 3rd pick... Alternates for that pick... Vader is up there and so is Ted Dibiase... Randy Savage is next in line but you'd have to factor in his 1993 - 94 announcing but that early run would be amazing.

If this was more formal, I would definitely jump in. It would be a fun little thing to do over a specific time period and not having to worry about the big post draft booking... maybe just do one big show kind of thing?

Ed Gantner of Florida fame jumped on my radar... Is he being used? I didn't see him in the 85 draft.

Also Lord Alfred Hayes if someone could use him is available

Jake Roberts is on the block

Im not sure yet... I see him in security gear but as more of a big bubba body guard than a wrestler right now. He's very young at this point... and huge.

Fixed.

They put over their debut on SNME and wonder just what will happen with Bret and Jim. Vince says they will be Hart’s number one team while Jesse thinks they may play second fiddle. *Special promo with Jimmy Hart unveiling his new team… The Fabulous Ones! Steve Kiern and Stan Lane. They video hypes them talking with the girls and putting over how they aren’t just the best looking team in wrestling but the most dangerous! The video hypes how they will debut at Saturday Night’s Main Event on October the 26th!* Jake Roberts defeated Ice Train Lane Mr. Fuji: You Jake Roberts carry around a snake… while my masters of evil have got me. We are going to show you Jake Roberts why you cannot trust a snake and why you must demolish it before it becomes too strong! *We cut to a special video that showcase the strength of Hercules! We see Bobby Heenan with him as he has got a couple of guys holding chains on either side of Hercules. Hercules then picks up the chain and Bobby explains that these men are going to pull as hard as they can and Hercules won’t budge. We see 3 guys line up on each side and lift the chains and Bobby counts down from 3 and we see the men all pulling and Hercules showing off some big time strength as he doesn’t move. Heenan has a clock and counts it down from 30 seconds. Once it hits Hercules then pulls the men in with some great power. Heenan exclaims that not even six-men could move Hercules. He is the strongest man in the world and will continue to show why he cannot be stopped! Manny Fernandez defeated Frankie Manchester -Good showcase for Fernandez who has been getting a nice little push as of late. Nothing crazy but continues to be a consistent force in the WWF. What could his future hold? *We cut to a special interview with Ted Dibiase. He is standing with two men… one being the One Man Gang and the other we are not sure of yet. Dibiase states that this is is personal protection unit. He says the One Man Gang and the Big Bossman (Think hybrid Bubba/Bossman with Bubba 86 gear) will be the one to protect him… Ted Dibiase: You know it has been a long time since I stepped foot in the WWF and for just cause! Over the last twelve months I have honed my craft inside and outside of the ring. I have built a multi-million dollar brand called Money Incorporated. You see it was a year ago that Hulk Hogan took everything from me. He took my WWF Championship. He took that title from me. Well Hogan… I went down deep pal… I went down and I laid it all on the line and it paid off in spades! You see I am a different man than when you saw me last…. I am worth 10 times the money… I am 10 times the athlete… and I am 10 times more dangerous! You see not only did I invest my money Hogan but I learned something about every single stinking penny pincher out there... I have learned that everybody has got a price…. Everyone has a number… and I am going to find what that number is for every man in my path because you see… I want that WWF title back. Money Inc. is the biggest conglomerate in professional wrestling and it is growing. It is growing Hulk Hogan more than Hulkamania could ever dream of being. It continues to grow with that WWF Championship. It belongs around my waist and i will do whatever it takes to get it! I have gone out and hired the best of the best of the best! These two men… the Bossman and the One Man Gang are not only the biggest but they are the baddest men on the planet and they will do whatever I ask of them to whomever is in my way. Right now Hogan… you are the one in my way… you have what I want… but Hogan… I know you… I know that yellow streak down your back doesn’t go to your brain. I know you can make a smart decision so think about this… here is a check… it is blank… fill in the amount and show the world why money is the root of all happiness and when you work as hard as I do you can buy whatever you want! HAHAHAHA! MAIN EVENT TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP The Fantastics vs The Dynamic Duo © w/ Bobby Heenan -A great showcase for both teams as we see the connection of the Fantastics who work so well together. Gino is really the star of this match and shows why he is one of the top dogs in the sport. We see Chris Adams do some good work alongside of him as the crowd is solidly behind the Fantastics. The finish is a fun one with Bobby Heenan getting involved outside of the ring but a double dropkick sends him flying before Chris Adams just DESTROYS Bobby Fulton with a crescent kick and then Gino with the roll up for the 3-count! The tag champions have retained and they look good doing so. Adams is helped to the back with Heenan and Hernandez.
