    Didn't plan on Nigel but he can probably fill the role I had in mind for Shieky

    Hope Al is happy with Paige though. Top women with a different character than most and storyline potential as a result, could always hang around with bulldog too if you want British stable too for example.

    Paige was my next pick so thanks man :pac::pac:

    Was totally puzzled that Alexa Bliss hadn't gone considering the amount of females that have now been selected. Hopefully it's someone you can work with Paulie.

    I'm sure you'll all agree this really is the tough part of the draft. Picking the main event scene is a doddle. Getting down to the nitty gritty, shaping your whole fed. So many wrestlers you have listed seem to drop extra fast in these rounds.

    I had a feeling you would pick up on that. Thanks a million. It's like I threw my rattle out the pram last night and you just handed it back.

    Sorry Beaker. I'm happy to land Velveteen Dream but I'm probably only 75% sure what I've planned for him so he may be up for trade. Since day one I thought him V Goldust could be great but I think I've gone off that idea.

    Getting a serious bang of NXT off my fed.

    You can always trade him. I had a great little plan for him, really high on him. Was hoping with him not on The takeover this weekend people might miss him. Ah well back to the drawing board

    It's a bad round to have a late pick. Double the amount af talent going off the board each pick.

    It's definitely harder picking for someone else.

    Sorry Slick if its not what you want. Would have given you AJ Lee if she wasnt picked earlier. No obvious connections to your roster that i could think of

    This round is tough on my list of options. Between relaxing the world champion rule to people gettting their gifts, anarchy!

    No you're good! I would've definitely picked him in later rounds.

    And AJ would've been picked by me this round, if she hadn't been nicked right before me.

    could be worse, you could have just announced on thread that your out of tag picks and will just be going for singles guys when Beaker announced this stip and the fact that 20 extra singles stars (cos they can't pick tag picks) would be going this round on top of the usual.

    ho hum nothing can be done tho.

    Ha nice pick for your friend Walt, I came very close to picking Sheiky & Volkoff when I went for Bockwinkel instead

    I need.... TWO picks to start writing. I'm 90 per cent certain I'll get both, but holding off until I get them both before committing pen to paper (or text to google docs, whatevs :P)

    Ok have my pick, now onto Walt........

    Should I go with someone whos associated with someone on his roster, or someone who would fit his roster, someone I think he'd like to draft.,.,,,


    Im leaning towards the latter

    Hope Walt is pleased. I loved writing for Magnum and I think he fits in well with Tully Arn and the Freebirds

    Finally someone picked Hussan. Finally. The temptation can now disappear entirely to fall back into old ways :D

    Great character to write for, had a lot of fun the last two years.

    Hassan didn't fit my roster or plans or he'd have been gone ages ago.

    Superb draft pick and a heat magnet.

    Agreed. Initial plans were a continuation of the last two years of my NCW storylines involving Hussan but I went in... another direction as is apparent :)

    Ive no plans with Hussan but i love his character. He will fit teh narrative I have for my roster easily, but how to get the best out of him is the next question

    I hope Eddie is ok for you Joe ;) he usually gets picked with Davey as tag team, is this the first year he has gone on his own?

    No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change this World

    I was expecting a low draw in the next average order round, draft gods have been kind this year... luckily I don't need a celebrity... although... should the right one come up...

    With the round averages working out at between 9 and 11.5, no one has had an alltogether shocking draw or too kind bar maybe Kolido. Its working out well
