I actually think Johnny Rodz probably meant more to the MSG crowd in 1983 than Billy Robinson did. And that's just as Rodz. Medico 2 would be way more over with the PR crowd in 83 than guys like Ole and Robinson would be with the MSG crowd in 83.

 

And I say that as a huge Robinson fan.

What do you guys think about my roster??

Perfect for Mid South.

 

Yea right now as far as "perfect fits" I would say Mid-South & Southeastern are the closest to what an actual roster would look like. Georgia too actually.

This is a territory where Buddy f'n Rose, the most incendiary guy imaginable, didn't draw. Why didn't he draw? Because he had too good matches with jobbers. Watching a good match on TV bewildered the NYC crowd and they didn't think he was a threat. He worked TOO hard.

I'd love thoughts on my draft so far, since I basically know nothing about Central States, I just chose people that I knew could fit spots, and that should be able to get over any where. You guys have me scared >_>

If you had filled your roster with Central States regulars, you'd be screwed. So it's not quite fair to judge you, WWA or All Star in Vancouver by the same metrics.

Dude, if it was just a case of picking guys who were already over in the territory, there is literally no point in the draft, so I wouldn't worry. I've picked guys based on what they can bring. Booking gets people over, the talent helps. What does it matter that Bock didn't work Kansas? He would have gotten over there without doubt.

I have tried to pick guys that fit the character of Portland. I see Barry as a better version of Hennig, Dundee as a better version of Dynamite, Embry as a better version of Rip Oliver, et. Stevens and Paterson were choices made with a bigger picture in mind.

I'm not your favorite person but I am still willing to work out a Mando deal some kinda way although I don't have anyone that fits Portland. Maybe a pair of draft picks?

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

Southwest Championship Wrestling would like to extend it's hand in friendship towards the WWF and call an end to the tensions of these past few days. Joe Blanchard has been convinced now that the rumors of an impending wrestling war are not credible.

I can help you with that in PMs if you want? I went through an extensive search of the white bread young babyfaces of 1983 that I wanted to turn heel until I realized Eddie Gilbert could still fit at this point in his career.

 

I'm not looking for anyone in that category for myself now.
