Grimmas Posted January 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 A luchador picked that I didn't even think to pick. Actually haven't seen Tiger in years, how is he doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohheylook Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 He had a good 2017 but was injured a lot of 2018 I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet-Left Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 I haven't followed him in a while. I actually had to double-check he was still active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted January 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 He's perfect for a Nitro show, nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted January 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 With that pick, I have my lead announcer in Mike Quackenbush and occasional wrestler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohheylook Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 I probably won’t draft an announcer - I can just make one up if I need one at all right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what others are thinking, maybe just at the end of your draft throw one out there. There are a surprising amount of good ones.

This is going to take forever. I didn't know that staff had to be picked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted January 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 In the rules it says " Rules. Referees, backstage staff, ring announcers are not needed to be drafted, assume you get those automatically. You can draft everybody else, make sure you grab an announcer and if you want managers or authority figures our whatever. If you don't want any of those, ignore them. " However, its up to use guys. I will be drafting announcers and a commisioner. Just dont use the obes I pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was banking on his injury making him fall a little further. I had a strong plan for a Dain/Harper tag team, taking the best parts of Sanity and the Wyatts.

Scarlet-Left Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Jim Cornette will be my colour guy and main authority figure. I'll pick someone up for play-by-play and a few random people for matchmaking and contract-signing angles, but that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Revival were my top tag team pick but I went for the Bar (just for the star power) - bad decision, I feel. Then again, if I'd have taken the Revival, you'd have taken Shayna Baszler.

El Dragon Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Just now, ohheylook said: Lmao at Cole to ROH Is it weird I honestly think that when Michael Cole is allowed to just call Wrestling matches and not put over all of WWE's buzzwords he's actually a really good announcer? I loved him in the first UK Title Tournament, and thought he was really good in this years Mae Young Classic. And there just aren't very many good announcers out there anymore.

El Dragon Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 It's a pretty great sign for the depth of wrestling that I am 26 picks in and there are still almost 40 people I have high on my depth chart at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could pick the biggest roster ever, there is so much talent. So many great wrestlers. There are folks out there that haven't been picked that you could build a company around.

He would had been a great person to put with Rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the matches that really made Fenix explode in the US imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
