JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 How do jobbers work? Are we just making guys up? No, I'm using drafted guys as jobbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Steve Pardee in the first or 2nd match of the card is somewhat typical of what the first 2 matches on the card would be in a lot of territories anyway. Local guys, jobbers, or just rather bland technical wrestling often ending in a draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 My concern is that I need a job crew of at least 10 for my plans to work. Your talent can't go over exactly the same jobber on each and every show. Got to switch them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 This is where doing Titans will be some help because, through Kelly, I feel I've built up a very good working knowing of early 80s jobbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Zane stands out right away as someone who should have been on the original list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I made the thread I thought Grimmas and Kris would be helping out with it, but that didn't really happen. Updates are taking like an hour each time and I've been pretty busy.

goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Back to Steve Pardee for anyone familiar with the guy: Did he ever have a heel run? In 2 different matches I've seen him get ticked off and I see heel potential in him. I need a babyface way more right now but it'd be something to keep in mind. Â Also, holy shit I didn't know "Mr Electricity" Steve Regal was already 32 in 1983. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Does it actually help you if I do the list of names to update like last time? Yeah, it does help to speed things up. Â Only remember to format the entire line as with italics not just the name of the booker / promotion. The worker's name should be italiced too. Â Very grateful though.

JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Also, holy shit I didn't know "Mr Electricity" Steve Regal was already 32 in 1983. I am not sure from his correspondence if dawho realises that it is that guy and not the British Steven Regal. I think he thought it was Regal as a teenager.

goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Damn wrestling worked me again! I was just watching him on Southwest in early 83 and they were talking about him like a young upcoming star in wrestling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Boon gave me the thumbs up to take the Southeastern lifer I've had my eye on but kept waiting for him to take. With KrisZ picking behind me I feel quite confident that President Reagan's favorite wrestler is coming to San Antonio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 I would like to make my pick today so I can post a picture when I do. Here is the order. If you are in it you can send me your proxy pick and I will put it in for you within 30 mins of you going on the clock and you don't have to worry about waiting on anyone. If you think I'm just trying to get your names I will tell you the next person I want to pick and since you are ahead of me you can either choose to steal him (doubtful you will want to) or realize I have all my own scrubs left I want and they are likely not the same scrubs that you want.

goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Actually having done another check over my list there are about 20 names left that I could see getting some use out of other than absolute complete and total jobber. I may actually get another 2-4 good pieces to add to my roster before I'm going into TOTAL scrubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin' Brian Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 My list still has 40 but I've been watching them drop pretty steadily. Hoping to get a few more pieces for angles and storylines, some guys I can build around and a few guys from the dying days ICW roster. Once they are gone I think I'm done.

rainmakerrtv Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Question : can I use him as Lord Humongous? I know Van Camp didn't put on the Mask until a year later (according to Wikipedia), would i be able to use him in the gimmick early? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
