Ah yeah he was definitely on my list for this round for sure... Liked the idea of him and Buddy Rogers forming an anti-hardcore stable with one or 2 others but ah well :P

campo · 19-03-2010 9:28pm

I plan to use him with DX i always thought he would make a great member

Bounty Hunter · 20-03-2010 11:57am

about time Severn got picked!

he was my top choice 2 rounds ago until the stip got added a really great pick at this stage imo.

also had Molly Holly in mind earlier but that was as part of a tag team with Gail Kim and once Gail was gone so was my interest despite her being a great female wrestler as are Bull Nakano and Dump Matsumoto who i gotta say at this stage are one of the best value picks so far afaic.

Gerard.C · 20-03-2010 12:27pm

A few of my picks are gone in this round too, we'll have to wait and C who Gerard.C is going to choose

Furious-Red · 20-03-2010 2:07pm

Pick made.

Waits to hear " Sorry FR someone already picked him"

20-03-2010 4:16pm

He can really take a ladder to the face FR.
Good potential on your roster.

D2D · 20-03-2010 8:31pm

I PM'd flah to remind him

flahavaj · 21-03-2010 1:12am

Cheers for the PM D2D, pick made.

I've watched round after round after round pass, yet no one has picked "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko. A bone fide legend, I couldn't leave him on the sideline any longer. Fits like a glove on my old-school roster too. Very happy to have gotten him. Have a look at the vids I posted lads, classic stuff right there.

Zbyszko's a legend no doubt about it. Any man that's a protege of Bruno Sammartino must be special, was shocked no-one had gone for him till now tbh, would have snapped him up myself ages ago except he doesnt fit in my roster,plus he'll look great in the auld pub with his woolie jumpers:pac:

Furious-Red · 21-03-2010 1:54am

Just wondering since i didnt get a chance to put up a write up after my Chris Harris any chance i could do 2 write ups before my next pick. If not its cool ill do the usual 1

I think you can do as many as you like, mate. I'll be doing more than one per round I'd imagine.

Machismo Fan · 21-03-2010 2:11am

Zbyszko vs. Dragon Kid would be epic. Just imagine Kid flying all over the place while Zbyszko does nothing but stall.:D TNA's best ever authority figure too if you ask me.

Mr.Nice Guy · 21-03-2010 2:46am

Pick made. I hope he hasn't been picked before. The thread search didn't show up anything anyway.

Don't worry too much about that. The stips for the Evaluation thread are really just to ensure it doesn't become a train wreck of a thread, but everyone has embraced it in the right spirit.

No one's going to be punished for going over the write-up limit. If you enjoy the writing work away!

campo · 21-03-2010 2:59am

Some great picks this late in the game

flahavaj · 21-03-2010 3:53am

Fabulous Ones a great pick at this stage.

waltersobchak · 21-03-2010 4:23am

Cheers Flah, its pretty obvious choice for me to have from a PPV booking standpoint to be honest, with The RnR Expess and The Fabulous Ones its a natural fued.

EDIT: newest show is up, seems a logical fit to have The Fabulous Express

campo · 21-03-2010 3:45pm

Walter your show may have taken over from MNG as my favorite be a tough call for my points

flahavaj · 21-03-2010 6:02pm

Walter I like your write-ups because not only are you booking your talent sensibly and well you're also showing a good understanding of the guys you have chosen and their history. Stuff like using Kishen Liger and referencing the fact that the Rock n' Roll Express were based on the Fabulous Ones' gimmick show you're not just booking people you think other people will like, but you've actually seen them wrestle and appreciate how to use them best.(which I honestly can't say about everyone else's rosters tbh). Good stuff.

Bounty Hunter · 21-03-2010 6:13pm

dont think i can compete to the write-ups done by some but ill be happy just to produce a logical build up to my PPV while each week putting up a full show people would watch. I know everyone isnt doing the write-ups but i hope everyone does a PPV as iirc last year someone didnt and could not be votted on. After all the time spent drafting these guys for your rosters they should really be showcased at the end

I enjoy your write ups Bh and I'm sorry for dismissing Villa on the SF.:P

waltersobchak · 21-03-2010 6:59pm

Cheers for the kind words lads, Just doing the best i can with the guys i've got tbh, I was afraid at the mid point that id made a huge mistake by going for great "wrestlers" rather than great "superstars" and that id struggle against certain big time rosters.. So to quote Paul Heyman Im "Hiding the Negatives, and Extenuating the Positives":pac:

waltersobchak · 21-03-2010 9:03pm

Please have Chavo throw Hornswoggle off the top off the Cell in a HiTC Match.. PPPPPPPPPPPLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEASSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEE:pac::pac:

glenjamin · 21-03-2010 9:05pm

He's going through a table at the very least I assure you.

JP Liz V1 · 21-03-2010 10:01pm

I didnt think anyone would pick little Hornie fair play Glen

Furious-Red · 21-03-2010 10:02pm

New write up is done

glenjamin · 21-03-2010 11:14pm

I was disgusted at his feud with Chavo late last year and thought it was time for revenge.

I think I might even go as far as having Hornswoggle leave in an ambulance with some limbs and dignity missing. It's only fair afterall.

campo · 22-03-2010 12:37am

Nice show FR yourmain event for the PPV is strong but i would say you need a GM on your show but thats just me
