LowBlowPodcast Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Posted December 8, 2015 For sure... Borne has a ton of upside and I enjoyed his mini run in Mid South. I definitely want to see him come back in at some point.
GeneJackson95 Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 Yeah, I watched that match where Borne/Dibiase won the Mid South tag belts off JYD and Olympia the other day remembered how great Borne was in this time period and shuffled some things around.
dexstar Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 Borne was very high on my list for this round, good pick.
rainmakerrtv Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 no worries on the late pick, JHawk, these things happen. Let us know if you want somebody to proxy for you.
rainmakerrtv Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 Dex takes 2 guys from my table ... we have some similar tastes in wrestlers. Â Pretty happy so far, I have my table set up in two lists, babyfaces and heels. I managed to get 4 out of my top 5 babyfaces and 2 of the heels.
dexstar Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 On the plus side, the AWA loop isn't a far drive from Detroit
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Posted December 8, 2015 Jimmy Hart and the first family coming to Mid Soutb... YES!
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Posted December 8, 2015 And the last couple rounds have definitely depleted what I have left for a big board so from here on out it is all the accompanying pieces
dexstar Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 I feel really clueless for not realizing Tonga John was the Barbarian
rainmakerrtv Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 I've got particular slots in my line up and right now my table consists of lists of people I am looking to fill those roles. The last few picks (esp the last one) is seriously depleting those lists and I am on the verge of having to dig in to find new people for those slots.
dexstar Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 Im kinda waiting on who is available, there's a couple weird names I am somewhat interested in and if they are gone I'm probably done. I had a board with a handful of different specific roles on it and have filled it, more or less.
rainmakerrtv Posted December 8, 2015 Report Posted December 8, 2015 The first page of the draft topic does need to be updated.
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Posted December 8, 2015 I will get it done soon I'm at work right now.
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Posted December 8, 2015 I think it is updated now... Â Great picks all around. My 37 big board is down to 5 and I am guessing it will be down to nothing when all is said and done and I get to pick again!
Pwsony Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 Damn 7 guys off my list over the last round.
Pwsony Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 Stampede will take Ox Baker and Paul Ellering
dawho5 Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 Good to see the majority of my roster has gone to places that seem like they will put them to good use. For those unaware, Phil Lafon becomes Danny Kroffat of All Japan fame when the Dan Kroffat of the 70s retires. Also, if you haven't ever seen Mad Dog Lefebvre wrestle, he's worth a look. Plays the gimmick well enough and is a good brawler that can do quite a bit more. He dies Christmas Eve 1985, but that's two years of a quality midcard guy that never got the push he deserved.
Boon Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 Just out of interested, how many rounds are left?
kevinmcfl Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 I think until we all pass but I am not sure.
dexstar Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 I understand if people don't want to tip their hands regarding any draft strategy for whatever reason, but I just want to throw out there that I'm definitely done after Round 10 if there's no set end. At that point I'll just be re-arranging peripheral players by bringing in new folks.
Boon Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 I understand the new guys going on a lot longer, just got my eye on a few low card guys to fill out my empty spots...
dexstar Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 After raiding AWA's draft board earlier I'm kinda glad I didn't go with one of my initial instincts and take the Ragin' Bull a bit ago, haha. Don't wanna piss off Verne too much.
rainmakerrtv Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 In immortal words of Verne Gagne, "You watch your step, sonny, you're bleedin' asking for it, you are!"
Boon Posted December 9, 2015 Report Posted December 9, 2015 After watching Verne for a few months, he can create stars out of nothing, he'll thrive on missing out on guys, I just hope the Latin Lovers don't get split up...
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Posted December 9, 2015 Well the only thing to remember is that once you're done you only have those people that you kept in the people that you drafted. Once the draft is completed than anybody who was not drafted from your unprotected list will come back to you so you can utilize the pics after the 10th round 2 pickup enhancement talent. I think that after around 10 we will go to a 12 hour window just to speed things up so that we can hopefully be done with this by Sunday. How does that sound to everyone?
