There are enough guys on the roster now and in the future you don't need to

Another thing you can't deny is that era had some amazing personalities across the indy scene while now you have some but not nearly as much as that era. Also every region was different and you didn't have a whole lot of the crossover talent like you do know.

It is a strange dichotomy now with everything being easier to get but another thing to factor in here is that people have gotten into more TV shows on premium channels which there wasn't a whole lot of back then plus other different forms of media going on now.

Sheik was working his promoted shows sparingly then turned up in GCW for a shot at The Omni against Sawyer.

Well I included most of the name ones on the rosters

Yeah but Girls Just Wanna Have Fun didn't even chart until December 1983 and blew up early in 1984. A-Team finished Season 1 in May so it's feasible to use him but he was just starting to rise as a star. Kaufman was definitely around then so he's fair game.

Lauper would come in a year later....Mr. T in January 1985.

Women and minis toured everywhere so yeah

Well the thing is they did a lot of Japan tours so they won't even be around a whole lot.

That story was totally enhanced yes.

Brody & Robley were definitely tight though.....if Buck was booking somewhere Brody was definitely going to come in and make shots for him

That's funny because they wanted him BAD in April 1984

He was pretty much blacklisted from the territories a year before his death.....Florida & World Class withstanding

Brody worked all the major territories after this time period actually so no

At that time Brody was working World Class mainly, Hansen was working GCW, Abby was working CWF, & Mil was WWF.

Wahoo needs to make his save right

Yeah Jason Cross could've been huge

I think he was gone by then

Skandor Akbar = World Class Lou Albano = WWF Freddie Blassie = WWF Don Carson = Southwest Jim Cornette = Memphis Eddie Creatchman = Montreal J.J. Dillon = Florida Paul Ellering = Georgia J.R. Foley = Stampede Grand Wizard = WWF Gary Hart = Mid-Atlantic Jimmy Hart = Memphis Lord Alfred Hayes = Montreal Bobby Heenan = AWA Jim Holliday = Florida Sir Oliver Humperdink = Unaffiliated Paul Jones = Mid-Atlantic Sheik Adnan Kaissey = AWA Sonny King = Unaffiliated Christopher Love = Southwest Hugo Savinovich = WWC Arnold Skaaland = WWF Billy Spears = Southeastern Sunshine = World Class

Thing is though the WWF roster from that time period as a whole is nowhere near the level of it's rank

I never have liked snaking period actually....if it was up to me it would be random every round but this is the best option of giving people a shot at having good picks.

Talent that worked there yes

Randomize every odd round that way you can snake the even ones
