El Boricua is doing a fantastic job getting everyone's "No way anyone will want this guy before I get him" picks like Johnny Rodz for you guys and Bob Sweetan for me.

Oh and Boon I have loved your very true to Southeastern draft so far but I am not sure on Mike Rotunda. I don't know if he would have fit there even as just a white meat babyface. I know he wasn't your first choice though.

El Boricua is winning the draft.

I'm not sure I'd go that far.

 

But then again something is happening that I don't really understand here because we're living in a world where Pez Whatley and Hector Gurrero get picked before certified Box Office like Ernie Ladd and Ole Anderson.

Different promotions have different needs.

That's because some people have a strategy other than "uhh I need a big name because I don't have any angles that can draw and thus have to rely on old names"

 

And I love Ernie but he is old and done in 1983.

I think I have been winning draft myself personally

You're doing good I would definitely agree. When I updated the rosters thread I was like "damn this is good looking Mid-South"

It's 3am here, maybe the Rotundo pick was a sleepy pick in hindsight, that being said I'm open to offers for him...

Well, I am running Puerto Rico. What use is Ole Anderson to me?

You're making a lot of assumptions.

I think if you don't believe you're "winning" the draft, you may as well drop out. Every time I look at my roster, I give myself an imaginary high five.

 

I am dreading the next few rounds though. Not a lot of wiggle room anymore as we all run for the same guys.

I saw your WWF in 1983 thread. Your booking relies heavily on names for the sake of names.

 

Waldo Von Erich in a MSG main event in 83?

Posted

I pushed for you to be in this game, just remember that.

Oh don't get upset JVK. I can try and see if I can come up with any hot stories for you once you have your final roster.

 

It's not personal.

I meant next to myself. Martel, Wahoo, Valentine, Killer Khan and Ivan Koloff is the best top 5 out there.

I have to side with Parv here. First goc drops out because he didn't get the promotion he wanted, so concessions were made for him. Then he complains about Dylan waiting so long to make his pick. Acting immature and a little annoying.

Waldo was part of a big angle where the three wise men brought back all their old charges to try to take out Snuka. It was a homage to the way Backlund went over all of Bruno's old foes as well as to DC comics. And a way of getting Snuka over as champ without sacrificing any of my heels.

 

It wasn't big names for the sake of big names, but if you want to discuss that you should take it to that thread.

He would have been amazing as a grumpy old man trying to keep Tony Atlas down!

 

I've also been thinking that, while I'm really happy with my draft, they're pretty much all heels...

Ok. Will leave you alone now.
