Boon Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I suppose it's the draft everyone is waiting for. So just to clarify I will be dropping the following wrestlers, towns and personnel. I will require Koko Ware to drop the titles within two weeks off this Saturday's date, and then he's whoevers. Wrestlers * Adrian Adonis * Koko Ware (Will need for 2 weeks max) * Super Destroyer * Les Thornton * Scott McGhee * Angelo Mosca Sr. * Roberto Soto * George Weingroff * Mike George * 'Gentleman' Jim Holliday * Tommy Wright * Timothy Flowers * Sam Houston * Greg Gagne Meaning I will be keeping the following.... * Buzz Sawyer * Jake Roberts * Brad Armstrong * Jerry Bryant * Ted & Jerry Oates * Ron Ritchie * Chick Donovan * Paul Orndoff * Rick McCord * Butch Reed * Johnny Mantell * Bobby Jaggers On top of the list above I'll be dropping the following... * Art Crews * Steve O * Moondog Morretti * Ted Allen I will be taking on Gordon Solie as my new joint lead announcer. I will be dropping any towns outside of Georgia, Dayton Ohio being the big one I suppose. The WTBS timeslot I'll be keeping. As o said before only a few of the guys above have start dates so feel free to email loan offers, and if there is someone your really looking for, then I may be inclined to trade. Enjoy the draft gentlemen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimmas Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Well, that is about 8 guys I could use.... Dayton, Ohio the WWF ran for the first time in October of 83, I may run it. Didn't get time to finish my schedule last night after it became official. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goc Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Not greedy!? You took Ron Ritchie AND Rick McCord! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Gotta say, there are plenty of goodies available for everyone in the draft, but you still have a core of great guys coming into your own territory. This is distinctly win-win (-win). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 If you wait until 10 PM Eastern tomorrow night we can throw all of the WWF guys I'm dropping in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah, I think the best is a combined draft. Besides that, last thing that needs to be set up is the draft order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 As for the WWF list we need to discuss Vince & Gorilla Monsoon. As well as perhaps ring announcers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 As for the WWF list we need to discuss Vince & Gorilla Monsoon. As well as perhaps ring announcers? They are non-wrestling talent. Just like Gordon Solie. Solie was picked up by Boon, so I would say Gorilla/Vince are either picked by you or into the draft.

dawho5 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I won't be using them. Not sure how I feel about trying to gobble up every bit of trade I can get out of the WWF roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Boricua Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah, I think the best is a combined draft. Besides that, last thing that needs to be set up is the draft order. Usually we've had goodhelmet set up a random order since he's Japan and would not have a stake in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 How about Boon or myself if Will is not available? We will both be out of this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I'm fine with that unless I get a bad spot in the order at which point I will demand a re-do by goodhelmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimmas Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah either of you is fine. Heck, I did the original draft order through the randomizer myself and no one complained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 But if vince or gorilla aren't picked they are put in the draft right?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't think announcers went into the draft, they certainly weren't in the original draft and don't recall that happening in previous dispersal drafts. Then again, a dispersal of the WWF is a unique event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I don't mind doing the draft order if it's joint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah I was thinking having Vince and Monsoon in that list may be a little different. Maybe even Finkel now that I think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Steve Stack is all the commentary team I need and uhh whoever the hell my ring announcer is, he's doing a fine job also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah, announcers weren't in draft, because they came with the promotion. No promotion has closed that had good announcers, except Georgia and Boon took Solie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 I don't mind doing the draft order if it's joint This seems good to me since you aren't involved and don't have too much of a stake. You have held up your end of the deal as someone we can all work with for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yeah I was thinking having Vince and Monsoon in that list may be a little different. Maybe even Finkel now that I think about it. Ring announcers like Finkel should just be whatever. To be honest I have no idea who the ring announcer is that I have been using. Not a huge part of the show, so just pretend Finkel goes wherever. Gorilla/Vince different story. Curious to see what happens with them, who drafts them or puts them a priority over talent or whatever.

dawho5 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 So everything is finished that's gonna be finished. Here is the list. Andre the Giant will be going to Mid South Wrestling for the Fantastics. The Fantastics will finish their run with Mid South and come in at a time Low Blow and I work out. Given Low Blow’s goals, I think it is safe to say he will be actively looking to get dates on big names in exchange for Andre. Ricky Steamboat will be going to Southeastern for the Nightmares, who will also finish their run and come in at a time that Boon and I negotiate. Jack & Jerry Brisco will be going to Florida for Manny Fernandez & “Iron” Mike Sharpe. The exact dates and times that Florida is done with these two is still being decided. Sharpe is also up for grabs to any who want to make an offer. Bobby Heenan will be going to the WWA for Blackjack Mulligan. I didn’t want to separate Heenan and Bock. Mulligan will be up for grabs, make me an offer. Mulligan is in Japan touring from 11/25 - 12/12. Billy Robinson and Ole Anderson are awaiting the return of Flyin Brian. My goal is to trade him Ole for Adrian Street and pair him up with Robinson as a heel team. Street would be allowed to work for ICW for some time after the deal took place. Robinson will be going to MLW until I have use for him. In the event that I can’t execute this trade Robinson and Ole Anderson become trade bait. Bob Backlund will be going to MLW for Joel Deaton and unlimited dates on Rick Martel and Greg Valentine. These dates would not take precedence over any previously booked dates. Joel Deaton will be finishing his run in MLW. Mr. Fuji will be splitting time between Montreal and Mid South, as will Tiger Chung Lee. All trades will take into account that they are required to honor all obligations that were agreed on for that wrestler before the trade. They will also receive any compensation that was agreed upon. As you may have guessed, I am not particularly interested in having any of these guys around at this time. My storylines currently will carry me to the end of November and through the next year with little help. The plan going forward is to have a rotation of teams moving in and out. They will be moving to various territories. I will try to keep things spread around where no one territory has more than one of my teams at a time. Interested parties in most cases will be given preference over places where a team has already been when it comes to who gets them next. This just allows me to have a store of teams I can either bring in or trade for a different team (for a few months run) instead of having to always make direct trades when somebody is leaving. In no way will I have a monopoly over any wrestlers on my roster besides perhaps the Rougeaus. The Fantastics allow me some freedom in having a backup major babyface team, but the Rougeaus are my homesteading 1a babyfaces and very likely will be spending the majority of their time in Montreal. So after all of that, here are your 28 midcarders and jobbers. Plus a few no-name announcers.
