Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk

[Beast]

Somers is available. He was a freelancer at the time so maybe he was overlooked when compiling the list.

[goc]

He is draftable. For some reason he isn't in the pinned thread but he was in KrisZ's thread. He was just kind of floating around but he was active and he can be drafted.

[Matt D]

I thought Studd should go around here. I actually thought he'd be a great pick for Parv's next. I could see him worrying about stinking up cards, but he's a perfect Andre opponent. I think he'll work well in World Class though.

[Grimmas]

Doug Somers is injured, so you can draft him he is just not useable until he is healed.

[KrisZ]

Olympia was my next pick no doubt

 

Somers is off the radar for a while going into 1984

[Grimmas]

My roster is rounding out well:

2 white American

1 French Canadian

1 French Canadian pretended to be Russian

1 First Nations American

1 Black Canadian

1 Japanese pretended to be Mongolian

[Grimmas]

Jhawk actually drafted someone not on my list.

[Grimmas]

So Crossface will draft the next guy on my list! Last night I thought I was going to bed before Crossface picked and I sent dawho my next two guys, Killer Khan and Iceman Parsons.

[goc]

I was contented not getting Killer Khan knowing that The Assassin Jody Hamilton would give me more value.

[Cross Face Chicken Wing]

And I came thiiiiis close to picking Khan as well

[JerryvonKramer]

I'm not really around this weekend so if anyone could help update the pinned thread, it would be much appreciated.

[goc]

I love you JerryvonKramer. Still the #1 drafter in my heart. Couldn't figure out how to make Robinson work in Southwest and never put his name on my list.

I can try to make a post at the bottom but I can't edit the list.

[Beast]

I'll be out for an hour, hopefully Dylan picks in the meantime.

 

And hopefully Dylan doesn't choose the same guy I want.

[JerryvonKramer]

I have Brisco and Dory for 10 dates, I figured Robinson could work great with them. These NY fans are going to get an education in mat clinics.

They are going to get bored and leave, unless you put Superstar in the main events.

 

While in Toronto we are going to have classic Martel-Valentine, Martel-Khan, Martel-Koloff, Wahoo-Valentine, Wahoo-Khan, Wahoo-Koloff and Rocky Johnson there to have good matches and get everybody hyped! Jesse is going to be running everyone down in his awesome charisma way too! Toronto is the place to be!

[goc]

Now I understand why JVK is so worried about his outside markets, he's going to get run out of New York with his plans.

[Matt D]

To be fair, he can sell a lot of popcorn during that match. The NYC crowd wants to see John Studd vs Ivan Putski.

[Beast]

That was way too close for comfort. Chavo was on my radar, but even before he was chosen I'd decided I wanted Hector as my foil for Tommy Rogers.

 

Dylan picking Mando....wow.

 

Scared me good.

[Grimmas]

So my plan to pick a Hector/Mando tag team in the next round is gone now.

[Dylan Waco]

The tag team I wanted that slowed things yesterday was Mando and Hector. Now I've got Mando and no Hector , which makes me already regret picking Mando.

Oh.. I was going to go to Kris for a ruling on them when it got to be my pick. Now I don't feel so bad losing out on them.

[Beast]

I was wondering why you chose Mando first Dylan, thought maybe you had a specific reason.

 

Hector is basically my Eddie. His territory character blows my mind and I'm so happy you went the other way.

[goc]

I am not sure if Hector could pull off his 87-88 character work from Memphis & USA Championship in 1983. I still like him as a pick though. There goes my backup Guerreros

 

Dylan I might get more out of Mando on his own than you could so maybe we could work something out if you have real buyer's remorse. Although he may have more value to Beast.

[Beast]

True, but I was clinched when I saw that in 1983 Meltzer wrote Hector was a truly incredible wrestler no one knew about.

 

He'll probably be a face to start with anyway.
