Cheers for the PM Nitro.

Interesting stip but I'd say if people do enough googling most of their planned choices will have probably interacted with the law in some form or another on a show before.

Necro

With everyone now having picked their numbers for the Rumble I have randomised my own

And they are

5 for the Men's

And

27 for the Women's

Best of luck peeps

1 pick away that will decide the entire look and feel of the roster. I had two picks earmarked and neither have been taken. They are both radically different to the point that if I don’t get my first pick then my second pick will 100% set the course for the entire roster!

beakerjoe

Ive 2 in mind. Having 2 picks between my first pick and second helps my main feud building capabilities

Necro

I have two in mind myself. Hope they arent the same as your two folks

beakerjoe

Ah I just seen Hunter is gone.... bye bye my first choice

thebostoncrab

Delighted, Jericho was my first choice since the stip got revealed, and I’m actually surprised to see him go for so long without getting picked up!

Necro

Hold up, I can't see where Sting won a WWE tag team title, that pick isn't eligible.

I'll PM PTH now

But of course!

Gotta say, I’m enjoying researching the stip for the next round. Funny the amount of tiny crimes you can find wrestlers getting involved with that you never would have heard of!

beakerjoe

Pick made. Hopefully my next pick will make it......

Bounty Hunter

Picking up speed now and with Necro doing a double we might have a few more picks up soon. Honestly didn't expect Jeff to go in rd1 but he is someone who could have been so much bigger than he ended up being, maybe with the right booker (Necro) that can be the case in the draft


edit: Brock/ Jeff is very nice imo - Jeff is the perfect guy to be rag dolled by the Beast but still be wiling to put his body on the line to have a chance and he would def have the fans behind him

Necro

I was hoping to get Hogan but figured he would never make it to me so I had a couple on a reserve list.

Always been a massive fan of Jeff tbh and loved booking him the first year I entered the draft as a sub

Bounty Hunter

Didn't think he would get to me but if he had would have had Cena going for the title record with the ultimate to be the man you gotta beat the man scenario... great draft BJ

Ive had Ric before and I think I can use him well against Adam Cole.

Jaysus, we're on a nice little roll. I hadn't been paying much attention. Last I checked we were six picks in.

thebostoncrab

Ric and Cole on the same roster is money, either against each other or as a pair.

They are both so similar but so different. Both work horses, both the leads of stables, both charismatic and a dream match in some respects.

Johnny Sausage

Finding this really interesting from an outsiders point of view

Some great picks so far and intrigued now to see how they will be booked

I had a choice in mind that I'd have bet a fair amount of money had a kayfabe encounter with the po-po.

Apparently I've grossly misremembered.

Obviously I dunno who it is but soo many wrestlers have had real life ones that with some research you might still be ok. DUI's etc

Furious-Red

Just dont some research and i have a pick in mind for the next round but i have a back up just incase

When I saw the stip I thought you’d run out of main event talent after just a few picks. But honestly I found almost 20 names, all of them main event talent or former world champions that had some form of brush with the law! Everyone should get a top talent out of this round once you do some googling of the word “arrested” after someone’s name!

Necro

You can PM me if you like H2D and I'll take a look seeing as I've gone already

At this speed, will we need to push Rumble order back to R4?

If it happens, it happens. Good thing about the Rumble round is it can slot in anywhere

Was just thinking that, think ABMG thanked the last pick so he knows he's up and I'm here for the next while so things could keep moving potentially

Trying to decide between a big main event opponent for Cena or someone I really want to book atm. Would be a much easier decision in previous years but this year where I only expect to put in a PPV card and maybe a post explaining it all I dunno.

A Brad Maddox Guy

Should have my pick up soon. Had to do a bit of research and trying to decide between a few

PTH2009

is only 1 carnation of a wrestler allowed ???

Mick Foley is mankind, Cactus Jack etc
Moxley is Dean Ambrose too etc
