El Dragon

After losing Gable Breeze was pretty much a must for me. I have plans for him if it makes you feel better.

Don't forget Braun hasn't been drafted either.

RoH selects Tyler Breeze.

Ugh, why couldn't you have paniced in a way that didn't lead you to taking Gable...

TThe biggest blow to me was easily Baszler going just before me in round 7. I was at a coin flip on taking her over Dawson in round 6 and I think I made the wrong call. Baszler/Lynch would have been an awesome cornerstone rivalry to build a division around. Though there has been a big increase in people taking wrestlers I was high on as we've gone. I had a decent sized plan for Wyatt, for instance, but I'm not surprised he didn't get to me. I will say I'm very happy with the cornerstones of my womens division. Lynch, Satomura, Belair, and Riott is a good place to be there.

RoH selects Ruby Riott. Back to WCW.

WWE selects Jimmy and Jey, The Usos, using there next pick. The IWC selects Kairi Sane. WCW is now up, followed by ECW.

RoH selects Bianca Belair. NJPW is on the clock.

RoH selects Austin Aries. UWF is up with back to back picks.

God Dammit. Well played.

RoH selects Jack Gallagher, IWC is now up.

RoH selects Roderick Strong, ECW is up.

RoH selects Buddy Murphy and Meiko Satomura. WCW is back up.

Oof, that stings.

I'm working an overnight tonight se I can pick over the night if it gets to me, so I'd welcome draft boards for tonight.

RoH selects Samoa Joe and PAC. WWE is back on the clock.

I also posted that and completely missed Bazler just going, which... fuck. I take back my "nobody has taken anybody I was just about to draft" comment.

*grumbles, and crosses the Briscoes off his draft list* I shouldn't complain because I wasn't gonna take them for a few rounds, but I did have some plans for them. That said, nobody has taken someone I was set to pick yet in this draft, so I can't complain really, and that is probably a better fit for them.

The biggest advantage to being RoH in this case is I can kind of just go “Okay, who are the wrestlers who are kind of stuck in the pack who are young, hungry, and can lead a promotion”. I can take guys like Dunn, Ali, and Almas and make them basically cornerstones from day 1 and it not feel off. The depth of the potential talent pool is so large too. Coming up with any sort of draft board for this is hard because there is just so much talent to pick from.

I feel mixed taking Lynch here as I feel like she is the hottest star in wrestling and thus an odd fit for RoH, but I will say a desire for a strong women’s division in combination with her being among my favorite wrestlers was enough that I had to take the value. Now to build a division around her. I am expecting the Dawson pick to raise some eye brows, but I think I can put Dawson with tons of different wrestlers and have an elite tag team. I am certainly not opposed to drafting Wilder, but I have 6 contingency plans in place as a potential team with Dawson that I think would be awesome teams.

With there swing picks, RoH selects Becky Lynch and Scott Dawson (Note I am not taking the Revival in full at this time)

No worries man, it happens

To further that, should I be randomized into the rest of the pool? I certainly don't mind having the 2 back to back picks, but it might be construed as an unfair advantage.

I do believe WWE only had one pick on this and then it goes back to UWF?

RoH selects Pete Dunne and Drew McIntrye. WCW is up, followed by IWC
