Class pick in THE end

ShagNastii · 22-01-2016 10:00PM

Shall have my pick up ASAP. Have a few guys that I really want but am sure will be picked. Trying to work out who to jump on.

I think we are all at that point.

I know I am! There is a tag team that I just realised hasnt been drafted and that while not huge stars they would fit my plans perfectly, while there is a big singles star undrafted so far that I *could* fit in but Im not 100% sold on him but I doubt he will last till the next round while the tag team probably will...................WHAT DO I DO?????

beakerjoe · 22-01-2016 10:42PM

Lots of great pics still available but only one who I want in particular, hopefully he lasts

beakerjoe · 22-01-2016 10:44PM

Also for those looking for a woman to add, Becky is still available for trade

ShagNastii · 22-01-2016 10:54PM

Picked Santino and Carlito. I'm fairly sure they have never been picked together IIRC. They teamed fairly solidly on Raw and Raw house shows from the end of 2007 through to the summer of 2008.

LeeJM · 22-01-2016 10:59PM

Never realised they were a team. Really good pick though. Interested to see if you use them as a team. 2 great characters and would defo make a great babyface tag team

Was thinking of picking Santina this round myself

good tag team pick there ShagNastii

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-01-2016 05:24PM

Sorry for the delay, folks. I hope to have my pick up shortly. I was trying to log on last night and I was getting a message telling me I'd had too many failed log-in attempts or something. From looking at the feedback forum I wasn't the only one. Hopefully everything's okay now!

beakerjoe · 23-01-2016 07:29PM

Have to say im surprised it took that long for DDP to get picked.

LeeJM · 23-01-2016 07:33PM

Yea so am I. A former WCW champ in round 7!! Even though I have no plans (YET) for him I just couldnt ignore him once I realised he was available.

Bounty Hunter · 23-01-2016 07:40PM

Just to give an advanced heads up to the new drafters this year.

When we get to round 10 I will open the Evaluation thread - this is where we put our write ups. How it generally is done is that you can have one show inc a PPV for each round after that point. You don't have to write that much of course but you have the option of doing up to that many,

So 5 shows used to build to your PPV is generally considered your max. That said you can also have a post to outline your promotion if you so wish to before these shows. Your shows can also take whatever form you so wish, normally people will have them be their promotions weekly Raw type show on their road to Wrestlemania or whatever they call their PPV but you dont have to go this route.

People understand not everyone has the time to write so much but most will at least try and get a PPV write up done. Personally I'm going to try and do as much writing as I can done early in case I dont have time closer to the submission date (which will be decided after all 15 rounds are sone but is usually close enough to Mania).

Necro · 23-01-2016 07:40PM

Great pick alright, I wanted to slot him into my roster on a number of occasions but couldn't figure out a place for him.

I had the same thoughts for this round but he thankfully he is picked so I dont have a dilemma anymore

Stereomaniac · 23-01-2016 07:50PM

Which are people more excited about, their next draft pick or the prospect of a new WWE Champion?

Depends on who we get x2

I feel apprehensive about both, you know that feeling when the person before you / the booking team might just screw everything up for you

Stereomaniac · 23-01-2016 07:54PM

Self High-5, sure.

Personally I think everyone should be excited about my draft picks :pac:

Stereomaniac · 23-01-2016 07:59PM

I think I should get a parachute, because I'm great. In fact, I think I should get both of them.

beakerjoe · 23-01-2016 09:47PM

I mean this in the nicest possiblr way..... but what is peoples problem with Roddy Piper! :pac

Is it possible that people dont like the way he keeps changing the questions??

mrkiscool2 · 24-01-2016 04:49AM

I had three different choices there but went with the one I thought was most likely to go. One of the other two probably will but I'm hoping the other slips through! Still though, delighted with getting the Vaudevillains! Had plans for them so was good to get my mitts on them!

Stereomaniac · 24-01-2016 05:20AM

I'm wondering is there a change of character coming for them after that little vignette that aired on NXT this week. Look forward to seeing what you come up with for them anyway Mark.

Bounty Hunter · 24-01-2016 06:46AM

Dunno if I coulda left them till later but felt I had to strike while I could and like Mrk raid NXT for a tag team cos there really aren't many left that could fit the need I have esp since Regal/Storm and a few others were taken.

Really surprised at the Piper deal there, I guess he has big plans for Booker T but I'd imagine if we knew Piper was available there woulda been plenty of offers in for him. Although probably the best I could do with be some mix of Kowalski, monsoon & Blackman as the others I think I have to have for my planned storylines.

DM_7 · 24-01-2016 10:51AM

The Liger pick is great. I took a risk in the last round that if I picked TGMTEL I might get a high enough draw to get Liger in the next round but NOPE. Typical draft life.

Well done BH, getting Brainbusters then Shamrock and Blackman then American Aplha is some cracking picking.

I had Shamrock in mind but didn't pick him as I picked him before and don;t want too many I had before (Already have Randy, Briscoes and now Piper on baord)

Bounty Hunter · 24-01-2016 01:10PM

EC3 I think is a really good wrestler and from everything I've seen very entertaining (always thought WWE shouldnt have let him go when they did) but I honestly could not have booked him because I have actually not seen enough of him due to him being on TNA
