    Gah, Batista was someone I would have probably redrafted if he had gotten to me.

    Pick made, pm sent.

    I think Batista is a great pick, and for a while carried Smackdown on his back, even managing to get a decent match out of The Great Kahli. He only wrestled full time I think 10 or so years, if he had started earlier/wrestled longer I think he'd easily be amongst the first round choices (and not fourth!)

    Ummmm...

    2D Kane and RVD were both world champions so cant be picked together.

    Had I not had Jake Previously, I would consider him. Hes a great pick, face or heel

    Ah, that rule makes sense now. Had no plans for RVD just thought he'd come in handy at some point.

    Kane it is.

    Post amended.

    I was gonna go with Jake in the second round to face off with Austin but decided on a different route plus I couldn't possibly top what already happened between them haha.

    I nearly took Batista with the first pick of the 3rd, hell I was trying to find an arrest for him in the 2nd so to get him in the 4th is good going imo.

    I came very close to also picking Batista. He is really fun to write for and can be used in so many different ways, but I have used him twice in the past and I think would feel a little “off” on the roster if I continue on in the same style as my other picks.

    Kevin Owens became the obvious choice for me then and someone I both couldn’t see lasting this round and, honestly, am surprised lasted until this round. Plus he fits naturally with Jericho, Angle and Okada for very different reasons so gives a ton of options for me.

    Pick Made, PM sent to Liz.

    Very happy to get DDP, I've wanted to draft him for a while. Was tempting to leave him for a round or two but didn't want to take the risk.

    For some reason I had thought Randy Orton was gone already. He's brilliant, one of the greats.

    I also thought Randy had gone. Funnily enough I was ready to select Kevin Nash but decided to quickly update my list first and saw Orton was still available. He fits the plan a bit better

    Apologies folks it has come to my attention there was a slight error in the original averages posted.

    Dunno how it happened but when I checked the spreadsheet the averages were as BH posted above

    I have amended the next round order to reflect this.

    I’m still first, which fits my plan; practically having a double pick suits me!

    I'm really happy with that one.

    Originally, I was very happy with Matt vs Taker, but with Foley and Black now, I've got some fun options.

    Broken Matt vs the 3 Faces of Foley and Taker vs Black would probably be a stronger card, I reckon. But I'm really happy with the theme I've got going right now :)

    Well I'm writing that name off my potential picks for the next round then! :pac:

    Cody and Goldust are two great picks, a team I had ear-marked as a potenital. In partiuclar I think with the last 24 months Cody and Vince could be another money feud that would be a ton of fun to write for.
