Grimmas Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Wells was in my top 3. This was a weird draft to call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Situational pick for a Canadian promotion really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Top 3 picks were all Canadian promotions, so yeah Dewey and Wells makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainmakerrtv Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 True story : way back in the day, when I first started watching wrestling (between WrestleMania and WrestleMania 2), WWF Maple Leaf Wrestling had their own separate Canadian tapings where everyone was moved up a notch. We usually didn't get the top level guys, the mid-card and upper job guys were competitive and even got some wins. George Wells got a fair sized push (he was a former Saskatchewan Roughrider) and was, no fooling, my favorite wrestler for a bit. It damned near broke my heart when, on a visit to my grandparents in Newfoundland, I watched a US broadcast of Superstars and saw Wells being used as a jobber.

Grimmas Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 It's amazing how long we had separate things up here. You had that Maple Leaf Wrestling, but then you had Canadian Superstars is what I grew up on. Not sure how it differed outside of the name.

rainmakerrtv Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 At some point Maple Leaf Wrestling became basically Superstars in all but name. I remember watching another show that was on the station from Kingston that was pretty much Challenge, except the last match was an arena match, usually from Toronto. I watched for the Al Perez matches and Shane Douglas' war with Haku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin' Brian Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I have good working relationships with both of you guys, so there can be plenty of JR Hogg to go around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Boricua Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 I have good working relationships with both of you guys, so there can be plenty of JR Hogg to go around. I guess that means that ICW won't be Hogging him for themselves then. (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■), YEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
