    There is a bit of extra freedom in not being one of the first few pickers, you're almost forced to go with some people

    Really looking forward to watching this progress over the next few weeks/months. Enjoyed taking part last year but I just couldn't commit the time required this time round. It looks like there is a really good line up of regular and knowledgable posters so it should be fun. Best of luck to all involved!

    I really liked your roster last year and think had you built to your ppv you would have got a lot more votes cos your PPV had a great card.

    Ive got some theories already for what i can do with a potential roster given my early draw but no long term plans ever fully work out in this as you will never get the exact roster you want

    I wonder will Luger be Pingu's no.1 pick, he was drafted as early as Rd 7 last time i believe :)

    I couldent resist picking the biggest name ever in Pro wrestling. I may not like him as much as SCSA, He may not be the great one, nor will he be the heartbreak kid but what he will do is give my promotion the biggest Marquee name it could have so I felt i had to pick him.

    I was thinking that too, just the name value alone is great to have. If he didnt go to TNA i probably would picked him haha

    I was hoping he'd slip through the cracks there. Good pick

    I'm glad you took him, if he had been available i probably would have taken him over anyone else! But I don't think anyone can argue with him being the biggest thing in wrestling. One of the problems with judging the rosters at the end is that we all see the ppv's through our smark eyes, so we know all the backstage politics and all the baggage that comes with people. But from purely "mark" eyes Hogan is the best there is.

    And i'm gonna try vote through "mark" eyes this time around. If that makes any sense.

    i have my first pick, not as big as the rest so hopefully he (or she...) will be overlooked. Hopefully.

    That screwed me a little last year I think. Has the Hogan Warrior main event and a decent undercard but obviously in an internet poll Hogan Warrior matches rarely win

    Take good care of him. The young lad served me well last year.

    It'll be tricky to not just pick the same people as last year for me I think. We developed such a bond *sniff* :o

    Thanks. It was an obvious enough pick but it gives me versatility. I would hope to be thinking more outside the box as this goes on.
