Pick made PM sent
Had three in mind (was hoping my other options would be taken) and decided to go with Roman such a good guy to right for especially these days

Mr. Guappa

Last years Picks thread is still stickied. Maybe we can get this years stickied in it's place?

Uncle Walt

Is this the first time in a while theres been the full 20 players in the game?

The White Wolf

Mr Nice Guy must be giving some serious consideration to his pick. :pac:

Yeah, first time under my run as organiser for certain. We had 13 in 2019, 16 in 2020.

Not sure how many beaker had in his final year, might have been the last year there was the full contingent.

I'm presuming the right Mr. Nice Guy was PMed

If I remember correctly there's two on Boards and the difference is the '.' after Mr

I got caught out PMing the wrong person a few years back is the only reason I know this :pac::pac:

We certainly have had 20 before. At least twice if I recall correctly.

20 players is the perfect number IMO.

Have zero idea of who to draft first. I would have been interested in Roman and Hogan.

Hogans always someone I wanted to book. As good as those picked before him are, his off camera persona outweighs those of Austin and Rock. A wonderful man to book I imagine.

Shows how off the ball I've been this year. Only realized that myself while making my pick this morning.

Done now.

If anyone needs to find last years thread it's now linked in the aging hot threads sticky along with several of the older draft threads

Listen, that first year as a Dad is a doozy, Im just glad your back.

HBK is a great pick, very versatile and top of any card. Had i not had him before, Id 100 percent try draft him again.

I like to try draft new guys that never appeared in BCW, but like last year when I redrafted Flair, if the right storyline comes up then you gotta go for who fits it best regardless of your previous draft choices.

Mr.Nice Guy

Delighted with my first pick. Nearly got him a few times in the past but usually missed out at the last moment.

Necro

MNG takes Lesnar, seems like a match made in heaven tbh

Had a lot of fun with him last year!

Uncle Walt

I've always had the gameplan of picking the best possible pick for each available round, the heartache of pre planning stuff the first year or 2 made me realise to ditch that strategy fairly quick

Really look forward to how you use Lesnar.

I usually do the same but never in my main event feuds. I always try thinking of a few possible feuds and have them fleshed out in my head.

This year though Im drawing a blank.

Picked and PM'd SlickRic (hopefully the right one)

Him Roman and another were the three I tussled with

beakerjoe

Taker was the only guy I had a vague plan for and I have always wanted to draft him.

Again, very versatile and surprisingly one pick that I dont think Ive ever seen used in a winning draft roster.

I enjoyed writing for him in the past

Am i correct in saying you had him in a roster with NOD members?

Yeah I considered him for sure. There's a lot of scope there between The Deadman and biker personas.

What I find truly interesting is his locker room leader position. I always felt that Id book him and a GM/owner in a story involving his loyalty and requests made by said owner.

yeah in a way I really enjoyed planning it out. it was a very marmite roster it was either for you or not

First draft for myself this year, reading back other years its amazing

huge scope for Roman this year

one of my ideas gone, but we shall see!

A Brad Maddox Guy

MNG with Lesnar should be very interesting. I loved having Brock in the past, I consider it tough to find the right opponent for him but certain MNG could make me believe a random jobber pick has a chance at this stage.

Also delighted to see we have the full 20 this year, and that there's some new and returning faces as I think it helps freshen things up.

Ideas come and go, but its part of the fun. Coming up with new plans on the fly can be very rewarding.

Had Roman in mind too, since he has gone all tribal king heel, very entertaining and hot I'm sure you'll use him well
