Just moving the free agent discussion out of the draft picks thread, so perhaps the rule should be, you can't draft anyone in free agent status if you have sent them to free agency? I understand wanting to have a rules patch to avoid people gaming the system, but I think that the free agents should be in the mix for the new promoters who are trying to create their new rosters.

That's a good point, Boon. LowBlow, could you possibly copy the current free agent list into the first page of the thread, so people have a clear view of who is available?

AWA takes Mike Shaw.

Yeah, that sounds fine.

I know that Boris Zhukov had that kind of affect on people! The answer is actually Skip Young.

AWA takes George Wells.

No, there are a few other people who can take his place for me. Believe it or not, somebody was recently drafted that has made me restructure what is left of my table.

It had been a thought, but the main person I wanted to pair with her was grabbed early on.

Feeling a bit of a dope right now, Brian Blair was on my draft table and I was about to pick him in the next round. Blair is, of course, on Florida's protected list.

AWA takes Al Perez.

I don't think William Regal is on the table. The Steve Regal listed in the draft is "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal, who would later be AWA Tag champ. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Regal

For that matter, does anyone know when Phil Hickerson and Gary Young got back into action?

Gino debuted then was inactive during this period until May of 84.

The AWA selects "Bruiser" Bob Sweetan.

Mid-Atlantic is now up.

I know you asked for help with the fresh face list, it's been a bit frantic on my side, working a weird shift, but I will lend a hand once it settles.

In immortal words of Verne Gagne, "You watch your step, sonny, you're bleedin' asking for it, you are!"

Can't believe I am able to get him ... the AWA welcomes "The Raging Bull" Manny Fernandez.

The AWA selects Rip Oliver.

Superfan is up next.

The first page of the draft topic does need to be updated.

I've got particular slots in my line up and right now my table consists of lists of people I am looking to fill those roles. The last few picks (esp the last one) is seriously depleting those lists and I am on the verge of having to dig in to find new people for those slots.

Dex takes 2 guys from my table ... we have some similar tastes in wrestlers. Pretty happy so far, I have my table set up in two lists, babyfaces and heels. I managed to get 4 out of my top 5 babyfaces and 2 of the heels.

no worries on the late pick, JHawk, these things happen. Let us know if you want somebody to proxy for you.

Damned good pick for Mid Atlantic. I had Borne on my list but at this point I am drafting for specific slots, and his place hadn't come up yet.
