Boards PW Draft 2020 - Discussion (and Sign Up) Thread

The preview show did a good job setting everything out, and the dynamic between Vince and Cody is well done. I also like the storyline you're doing with Goldust and Warrior, playing off the latter's comments in the past. That's a nice touch.

Wrestlepalooza was well written and I thought the booking made sense. I was pleased that Goldust won the IC belt. The Vince win sets things up nicely for future feuds. Your use of the celebs was well handled and Yokozuna came across like a monster. Main event delivered as well. I see you being in the mix like in previous years.

The preview show did a nice job of setting things out and I liked the references to the company's history. Big fan of Dibiase getting pushed well and the Beer Money Inc. concept is excellent. Lesnar vs Andre is a great dream bout and you did a perfect job hyping it with Heyman. Thought the Ziggler/Mayweather build was well done as well. I like how you referenced the Blanchard controversy from a while back and the stuff with O'Haire is very interesting too. This got me very interested in the Natural Selection event, so well done on that.

Strong start to the PPV with Blanchard losing and O'Haire getting a big win. Loved the turn by Billy which I didn't see coming. It makes sense and sets things up nicely going forward. I liked the way you handled Mayweather's loss and you've made me interested in Ziggler, which is a triumph in itself. Loved the Lesnar/Andre match which may be my favourite of the show. The German Suplex to Andre would be epic, and liked the return of the shooting star. Brock winning was the smart call too. The main event was exactly as it should have been to give the fans what they want. Lots of heels for Jeff to face in the coming months also. I know you said at the end you thought it was short but I felt it was just right. I can see this being a major contender and rightly so.

An appropriate name for the PPV in these times: Isolation. Omega vs Eddie should deliver for the fans, and Rock vs Arnie referencing Hollywood is a clever touch. I like the idea of Sheamus bullying the luchadors and now having to tackle Pentagon Jr. The two Reys, and Ospreay vs Ultimo Dragon, will be great matches. I enjoyed how you built Page vs Tazz via the latter's commentary upsetting him. This got me interested in the event.

Isolation - The opening match would get the fans pumped up. Think Ospreay winning was the right call, and Page needed to deliver after the criticism of him. I liked the passing of the torch with Fenix getting the biggest win of his life, and I got a kick out of the way you handled the Sheamus bout with the reference to the Bryan bout. The bully had to get his comeuppance on the big show. Pleased that Rock got the win and I liked the John Connor line. I can see the crowd loving that. Eddie winning sends the fans home happy and was the perfect finale. I can see Isolation being well received and I'm glad you did the write-up in the end.

I like this creepy Gods of Power stable and they feel like a menacing threat. Enjoyed Christian turning on Edge, and the finish of Drew getting the win over Goldberg was done well. I liked Rhyno getting the IC belt also.

On the PPV, I agree with Dain and Young getting the opening win. Barrett winning the title was well handled with Barrett capitalising on the Gore. The Spear to Finlay by Goldberg was a cool spot and lets the audience think Finlay is out of the main event. The spot with Show and Abyss would be another strong spot and helps continue their feud. The promos with Edge and Christian did a nice job of hyping up their match; their bout would be a classic and I liked the show of respect at the end. Really liked the way you teased Finlay being out of the match once again, only for him to show up to help Drew. Pleased Goldberg got the win to send the people home happy. Very well thought out PPV and a nice variety of matches for the audience. Great job.

Well written preview show that put over how the McMahon/Helmsley era are dominating MWA. You've got some major star power and I liked how special you made Savage feel, like when the Bullet Club were courting him. Stephane slapping Miss Elizabeth would be a big moment. This did the job in hyping up the PPV.

Strong opening for the PPV with the tag match. I enjoyed the tension with Rikishi and Scotty. Bucks winning made sense. White clotheslining Stephanie was a surprising spot and no doubt will have repercussions for the future. Agreed with Storm getting the win. Ibushi/Devlin would pop the crowd, and was pleased that Arn and Tully got the victory. RKO to Savage was a perfect spot that was probably my favourite of the show. Main event was a fun twist that I didn't see coming - when White came out I thought maybe he and Balor had been working on a plan to fool everyone, but I liked the way you did it better. Nice how you explained why he was allowed out there at the end as well. Great job.

The preview show was well handled and you did a great job pushing the rivalry between Flair and Cole. I liked the vicious side of Flair. And I popped for the return of Dynamite King. I'm digging this dynamic between Ronda and Batista and the high stakes involved for both of their reputations. Nice use of the Uso troubles in their feud too.

The opening package with everyone's comments was well done. Pleased Usos opened with an emotional win. RVD/Riddle would be action-packed and glad you gave MJF the win. Ronda/Batista would have the fans on the edge of their seats. Walter/Dynamite would be a war and I think the way you booked it was the right call. The main event was my favourite on the show and you built it up nicely. I liked the Cole promo saying he idolised Flair. The finish was typical of Flair and sets things up nicely. Walter vs Flair would be epic down the line. Great show and can see you being in the mix like previous years.

I laughed at Jesse's opening, that was great. Pleased Toyota got the win and Pillman vs Pac would be a fun bout. Kane vs Haku would be a hell of a brawl and your tag title bout is one of the strongest in the game I reckon. Thesz vs Bruno is a nice old school addition and Piper vs Austin would be a massive draw. Very strong card that would deliver for the paying audience.

This roster stands out from the pack, which is a big plus. I like the idea of Taker being involved in a Broken Matt Deletion match, and Foley vs Strowman I reckon would be a show stealer. I see them meshing well together. I also dig the fact Regal stands out on the show just by being his old self. This would be a fun event.

An epic start with the tlc tag match, great womens match and nice to see Corbin lose Dunne win even with Corbin interfering and nice ending with Ciampa as the world champ

Fcuk You Covid, hooray hooray epic ladies match and nice to see Sean O’Haire win good build up, Billy and Chuck reunited as tag champs is nice, Andre Vs. Lesnar what a dream match and great to end the ppv with Jeff victorious as champion, great use of your roster, well done

all matches seemed epic, technical high pace high flying wrestling, The Rock Vs. Arnie was funny and ended well, good ending to the ppv with Eddie as champ

Gorilla and Ventura on commentary was great, epic ppv and delighted SCSA was winner against Piper, go maith

What a match between Edge and Christian, epic, of course I would prefer Christian to win , Abyss and Show was carnage and nice to have Wade win the IC title, good use of your roster, well done

Another former winner comes out swinging with an epic well written ppv, love how especially Ronda and Walter was written, Cole Vs. Flair was awesome

I did some research on some picks as I wasn't too familiar and wow some talent on display, money main event and nice to see Kurt Angle win too, very well done ppv

Before I read a single word, I know I am in for a treat. Each year, whether you win or lose, you always deliver a top notch read and Im almost certain I give you my top marks most years. No pressure.

The set up for the PPV was very enjoyable. Reigns turning on Hogan brought back memories of Savage turning on Hogan in the run up to WM5. Adding Heenan would solidify Reigns as a top heel and its totally a feud I would enjoy seeing in real life. Romans rationale is sensible and believable.

The King vs King feud would be fun, King Booker made the most out of his KOTR win and himself versus Lawler would be a feud worth seeing.


Rude and Honkey as stable mates fighting for the IC title is interesting and can go many ways, plus adding the most natural babyface of all time to the mix is a nice addition.

The Arbs vs the Yanks is a simple, yet effective feud that would garner plenty of interest in the early 90's. The stip adds to the feud.

Windham vs Misawa would be a great match in reality, and the twist in Windam turning face adds to the interest. I wonder will their be a double turn.

At 6 matches, you've build a nice set of feuds.

The PPV kicks off with Windham vs Misawa and it would be a fine opener to any show. The set up the finish would have the fans standing in appreciation, and teh cradle finish makes sense and puts Windham over huge to start the show. I wonder how Heenan will react.

Lawler vs Booker would have been fun, was a huge fan of both Lawler in his prime, and of Bookers king gimmick. The finish is the way to go with Lawler picking up the sly, tainted victory. Lawler Heehan would be a fun double act to watch, esp against the outrageous King Booker.

The Arbs vs Americans match isnt one Id be dying to see, but with that said the angle would be fun. Slaughter turning heel was excellent and it gives the newly face Windham a new dance partner. Excellent way to get Windham over long term.

The Tag match would defo be a dream match, and a hard hitting affair. It would be a big attraction and certain to draw, plus it would be an enjoyable brutal match, that wouldnt be for the faint at heart.

The 3 way dance would be a decent match with 2 excellent wrestlers in Rude and Steamboat, with the always fun to watch Honky making up the numbers. Having Rude steal the pin and then dump Heenan for Stacey was well done. Easy, yet well crafted booking.

Reigns vs Hogan was epicly booked, esp the hot finish. Heenan getting his just desserts and sending the fans home happy makes sense here. Hogan now has Lawler and maybe Slaughter next in line, while Roman could work with Steamboar or Windham.

As always a great read. MNG you'll be tough to beat again.

Real happy you got the PPv card up. Realy enjoyed your work from previous years. I remember one year you helped me care about Randy Orton going over Goldberg when in reality I wanted both to fcuk off.

I loved the concept of the TLC elimination match, reminded me of the 3 stages of hell match from 2001 and the match would be a great way to kick off the show.

The submission match is a nice match considering the way their submissions get over initially for both men at the begining of their WWE careers. Rusev had to win though and Id be disappointed had he not won. The IC gauntlet match would be a great way to get the winne rover and giving Dunne the win was easily the right choice.

Sasha v Trish is a dream match so the match books itself. Bayley turning and winning the title would be a great way to get her over and creates a sympathic challenger in Sasha. Good stuff.

Im a huge fan of both members of DIY (see most of my previous shows, Ive booked them 3 times now) so seeing them at the top makes me happy. Always capable of tearing the house down so id expect a 4-star classic miniimum.

A fun card that I would surely enjoy in reality. Well done D.
