Rosters are coming along nicely, some well written stuff as well so far, it's gonna be tough picking a winner.

He wasn't in my plans this year but like yourself if he'd lasted I would have tried to fit him in somehow. He's been one of my favourites to write for over the years.

Cornette will always bleed Monday Night Grappling as far as I'm concerned.

Uncle Walt

With Bischoff being in MNG, Cornette was just way way too good a character to pass up on!

Bounty Hunter

gotta believe ^that right there will get mentioned on Cornette's first WECWF appearance

Uncle Walt

Ohhhhhh bigtime!!! I'm really really excited to ignite some feuds this year!!!!

Mr.Nice Guy

Plus aside from being a great character he can fulfil a whole raft of roles: manager, GM, even a commentator (which I don't recall I ever tried). For a guy with so many uses at this late stage it's great value.

Lord TSC

Will have next round up shortly.

thebostoncrab

Jim Cornette should not have lasted this long and is a massive steal to get this late into the game! Nicely done!

thebostoncrab

...the temptation to fill my roster with joshi talent is now massive thanks to that stip!

campo

My Draws have been brutal of late, love the stip though and should have next show up soon

I like that tag team

Mister Mister

Also looks like

Sapp vs Henry could have a great brawl if that's the plan

Would you be interested in a cameo appearance on my first show? It wouldn't be a big role, but I have a segment I could fit you into and it at least lets you stay involved in the game (albeit in a small way)

This is assuming no one else objects, of course.

campo

Next show all feedback welcome as usual

JP Liz V1

I am sure I will be using wiki for a lot of the picks this round

I often have to use Wiki during the draft, even in the earlier rounds.

On the plus side it can be very interesting to look people up and watch videos of people you don't know.

Yeah the research aspect is something I really enjoy.

Well, normally. I must say this year looking up songs Kanye West wrote for Kim Kardashian, so I can determine what music she will use, must rank as one of the most depressing moments in all the years I've done this...

Please say you chose Gold digger

I was going to go with the Drunk in Love remix by Kanye West. I also plan to use Bound 2 in some capacity which may be one of the most annoying videos ever made. Awful.

Who's online i want an opinion of an angle im working on pm me

This proposition of yours intrigues me.

Nikita Koloff may be up for trade if a decent offer comes in

Well basically I'm going to have a 'random' draw take place on my first show for my King Of The Ring tournament and I was thinking of bringing in an outside presence to carry it out as an impartial party. That would be where you would feature as the person who conducts the draw. Not a very fancy role I know, but hey I could expand your role if you wished. Would be just for the first show though. If you'd prefer not to be involved that's okay too. Balls in your court. Just thought I'd throw the idea out there anyway.

So basically look at your roster, and pair up wrestler's for your KOTR tourney, i suppose i could do that, assuming it's alright with everyone else that is.

No, I have the KOTR matches done and dusted. Took me a while to work it out the way I needed to but it's sorted.

My idea was that you would be the guy on my show who (kayfabe-wise) would carry it out. In other words you'd be a written character (just for the one night tho)

You wouldn't have to do anything but just give me the go ahead to use you as an on-air character (plus all your merchandise rights )

Hope I'm explaining this alright?

Lithium93_

Ah fair enough i suppose, you only get 10% merchandising rights.

Don't worry I'll make you look good.

Now if it was Bounty Hunter or walt on my show those lads would be getting a Stinkface or a Stunner (probably both).
