joeg Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Hypothetically, Can we draft talent that was inactive or part or all of the 4 years but wrestled before and after the the time period so like is Samantha eligible for example? Do we need to draft managers? For tag teams is there a minimum number of matches they had to have had together? Can we draft 6 man teams?

Â 50 matches for tag teams. Â 50 matches for six man as well then. You just give up your three picks to get them. Â If you want a manager you have to draft them.

gordi Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I think for three-man teams, it should be pretty clear that they were PRIMARILY a three-man team. So, maybe the Freebirds and Von Erichs and some of the famous Lucha trios teams where working together was kind of their main deal... but not, like, Misawa, Kawada, and Kobashi as a trio. Â Even though Misawa & Kawada and Miasawa & Kobashi had a ton of matches as team-mates and won belts together and stuff, I felt like, looking at their careers, nobody would think of them as first and foremost tag wrestlers... So I considered trying to draft them as a team in the 3rd round, but rejected it as too "cheap" (Holy Demon Army might have been reasonable... But they don't team together as such until '93). Â Hope that makes sense and seems fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 And also remember if they are picked as a team or trio... they would be used that way in your "show." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordi Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Surely people want to use up three picks for the Desperadoes.  According to CageMatch, Black Bart, Deadeye Dick & Dutch Mantel only had 8 matches together  The Moondogs on the other hand...  (Did you know that Deadeye Dick was Moondog Rex? I did not know that)  ... and now I am wondering if the Michael Hayes, Jimmy Garvin & Brad Armstrong version of the Freebirds had more than 50 matches together.

El Boricua Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Surprised Rick Rude 92 only got picked now. I was a bit surprised he was still there at the start of round 3. Let's see if we can make it to round 5 today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Asking for a friend, but when TV dies in the future, how do you think wrestling would be presented? Holograms in your living room, theaters only, VR, etc... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowBlowPodcast Posted November 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I'm going to see Daddy's home 2 tonight so I will not be available to move draft. Whomever is up next after joeg, be ready. Â Again I know we have time difference and such but if you know you won't have access for at least 12 hours send a proxy list to me or someone else to keep us moving along.

Beast Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I have to challenge the Inoki/Fujimami pick. Â Looking at Cagematch, they have nowhere close to 50 tag matches in the allotted period (88-92). There's probably 50 pure 2 vs. 2 tag matches sprinkled from 1979-1989, but the vast majority are 3 on 3. Â I feel like that kind of goes against the spirit of the tag team rule, but I'm not a big Japan guy so if everyone agrees that Inoki/Fujinami is legit, I don't have a problem. Â Just looking for a little discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeg Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I asked with them specifically in mind. Give me Inoki....1988 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I'm traveling all day tomorrow and won't have access to the internet. But I gave Grimmas my next FIVE draft picks with the hope that folks start sending out proxy picks and we can build some momentum so we aren't drafting until Thanksgiving.
