Boards.ie PW Draft 2016 discussion thread!

Austin vs Ambrose = $$$$$. Throw in one of the best monster heels of the last 20 years in Umaga, the legendary Muta & the best of WWE lucha with Mysterio & the Dragons and this is a great roster. Be interesting to see who you get to face Asuka as the right opponent could easily be a semi-main event.

Balor was actually the person I wanted most this year so eager to see what he does on Monday nights. Edge is a personal favourite but with a roster that stiff you could go in multiple directions and end up with an amazing card no matter what.

Lesnar, Bryan & Benoit. Ridiculously awesome & any combination is a dream match. Unreal undercard too, be interesting to see how the new hotshots Gable & Jordan do going up against some of the most legitimate tough guys ever to step foot in the ring.

Joe, Misawa, HHH & Bruiser Brody is an excellent mix of dream matches. I think your hardest decision is going to be which one to finish with :cool: LoD vs The Wolves could be a great showcase of legends against one of the best teams today.

I think I should get a parachute because I'm great.

Styles vs Punk would be amazeballs. Getting DDP so late was a fine piece of drafting. Anything with Sabu is going to be entertaining but throw in two great high fliers & 3 tough b******s and you've got a great undercard. Not sure how James Mitchell will fit in but I'm sure you've got a good idea.

Flair vs Cesaro or Nakamura are two more dreamland matches in the draft. Kerry Von Erich is a real "what could have been" wrestler. Fantastic women's division as well, you've made 4 great tag team picks.

After last year's all female roster the pressure was on for you to replicate something great. You've only gone and bloody done it. I've genuinely no idea what your main event will be but if it's a Scott Steiner promo you'll be getting maximum points from this guy.

An interesting roster that has a real hardcore feel to it. Owens is one of the hottest names going & can feud with anybody. Potentially great timing with Zayn being back in action now too. I'm a big Sheamus fan & your undercard is really hard-hitting, wouldn't fancy being Neville having to face those guys every week :P Also if Jay Hunter's about, does Bobby Lashley qualify as a "boy"? If so he's one of mine.

A fun roster with lots of great character. You have the biggest star of modern wrestling in Cena, wrestling game changers in Foley & Nash & fun 80s characters in Honky Tonk & Slaughter. Interested in seeing what Kennedy does as he's another "what could have been". Also getting Nash so late is criminal really.

Another great mix, Tanahashi against Perfect would be an amazing match, Tanahashi against Goldberg would be an interesting clash of styles & a huge draw. Great wrestlers or characters in your undercard, Raven & Heyman will provide great promo material.

It took me longer than I'm will to admit to realise you got Bulldog & his son, nevermind the potential Canada vs Britain feud. This is another roster that I can't figure out what will main event as there's probably 6 different matches I could envisage closing the show.

Great mix of technical masters & high flying action. Henry will be an effective monster threat when faced with a generally smaller roster, should be a few interesting feuds in here. Sean O'Haire sticks out a bit but as you said he was your first choice that round I'm sure you've got something big planned.

Safe to say if ever Sting, Warrior, Hogan, Ventura & Vince were in the same company in their prime then fireworks would fly. Interested to see if those backstage clashes can carry onto the big screen of Boards.ie. Santino is also one of the best comedy wrestlers there is.

2/3s of New Day & Sheiky Baby means you're going to have a lot of fun writing this roster. The serious wrestling machine Bret Hart verbally sparring with Kofi & Big E? Sign me up. Also am I right in thinking Strong-Will Wrestling Group is the name of your company & not the tag team?

Crazy character galore in this roster. Undertaker & Jake is money, Sandman could wreak havoc anywhere & 2 good tag teams. Excellent women's matches in there too.

Wyatts vs Rhodes has great potential. You've also got plans for Dan Spivey which will be interesting. Booker T is great, if it wasn't for HHH I think he'd be going much earlier every year. Can you revive The Ascension?

I've already said it but I do think this is the strongest roster so far. Great mix of star power, promos & wrestling ability.

Crazy strong roster from top to bottom. Shane O'Mac has his work cut out for him handling that lot :P There's a few combinations you can go with for your main feuds which means you'll have a really strong semi-main. Even though you inherited the roster you've traded well & made it your own so kudos. Also Rusev is a steal at this stage.

The Rock, Scott Hall & the New Age Outlaws is promo gold. Another that I'm unsure of the main event but Hassan can slot in anywhere. Attitude Era feel to it, multiple World Champions & arguably the best to never do it. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it.

Why/How is someone like Sweet Saraya eligible to be picked?
