dexstar Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Borrow is key. That's way above our prop budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Tex and Shanghai reunited in SMW is freaking awesome. What a great team before they become farmers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 ECW has a kick ass worker roster (Taylor works right in that style), but.. I'm hoping some more hardcore wrestlers come in. I'd hate to be running the only two companies that are actually extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topropepodcast Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 I'm definitely trying to pivot a little. I'm thinking more brawling along the lines of mid 80s Crockett and less... Exploding Ring Death Match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exploding Ring Death Match. That sounds about right for ECW. You do have Cactus, Raven and Dreamer, so that's not a bad base for that.

Grimmas Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 I have WCW, SMW, M-Pro and MTW's picks. Along with FMW and RevPro (obviously). If others want to send me picks, we can really rush through to the finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 I sent my theoretical last 9 picks into Grimmas assuming no one picks any of them (and I'd be shocked at this point). If I was a Bond villain, my henchman would just be my UWFi roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Ah well, there goes any chance of Masao Orihara & Takeshi Ono being on the same roster. It was always one of my whims in a fantasy booking setting like this to have Minis versions of them called the Tonpachi Machine Pistols.

gordi Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 "Do you expect me to talk?" "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to take a Vertical Drop Brain-buster followed by an Everest German Suplex followed by a Backdrop Driver followed by a Northern Lights Bomb followed by a whole lot of Roundhouse kicks, and then tap out to a Fujiwara arm bar."

It was always one of my whims in a fantasy booking setting like this to have Minis versions of them called the Tonpachi Machine Pistols. Nice! We can hopefully have talent exchanges and so forth. I think elliot, Grimmas, and I can work together something like how BattleArts, FMW, and M-Pro worked together in the "real world" universe (i.e. once in a while and almost always to good effect). I was hoping to tag Orihara and Ono up as Sasuke the Great and Masked Tiger in the tag tournament. I had to jgrab Orihara in order to make a trios team of Great Sasuke, Great Kosuke, and Secret Sasuke down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I always need people to fill out my undercard and for Super Leather to kill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordi Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Man, I can think of angles for Hayabusa, Jinsei Shinzaki (duh), Ricky Fuji, La Parka, Hanzo, and Matsunaga in M-Pro. They's all get put over, or at least made to look good in losing. Or we could send six guys over to do a "Michinoku Pro Offer Match" on one of your big shows... I could see Funaki or Smiley doing jobs on the UWFi undercard or working a BattleArts kinda deal with, say, Ishikawa, and Otsuka, Ikeda and Matsunaga, and Mochizuki, and TAKA in some combination... endless possibilities for when we wanna spice things up or put on a big show or even maybe some day run a joint show in Tokyo or Osaka...

Yeah, those are all perfect and really what happened at the time too. By the way, can we talk about how ECWA is quietly becoming the best! Kamala!!!!!!!!

dexstar Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Enjoy your fancy matches, I'm taking 50% off the top on the autograph signing profits outside VFW Halls across the midwest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topropepodcast Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 I'm sure I'm not the only one, but the draft feels like it's come to a screeching halt. I feel like there has to be a way to get through these last few rounds at a quicker pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Everyone give me picks. I will finish it. Gave about a third of people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 I think just OVW is left to send me a list. Get that in and I can finish the draft tomorrow for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexstar Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Yeah I'm all in on anything to speed it along. Just for reference, I only need 14 on my roster, so will be ducking out of the draft after another four guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Draft over! If you want to sign up free agents, I will have that list up later today. Remember if you are an indie feel free to sign people for just one show (date) or if you are a touring Japanese company, feel free to sign up people for tours (just not past September).
