    Thank you very much for such an incredible pick Shagnasti, a gent who i was desperately hoping i would i get to draft this year! And with that i can now get writing my shows!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,025 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,430 ✭✭✭ShagNastii

    Really happy with Zeb, really lucked out at getting him so late. Have a big BIG role planned for him.

    Hope BH likes his pick from me. I watched Bryans ROH series with Morishima this week and I really hope BH can find a role for him.

    On the flip side, Walt really....Really....Really helped me out a bunch. I have a ready made role for Evans and Hart. :) Really happy

    Cheers for Morishima (I agree he is often underrated) he should fit in really well in the BWA. Unless I change plans I honestly don't know what I will do with him atm but I can at least see how he can fit in with other peoples storylines on my build up shows.

    back from my travels now so going to start the big re-write although I'd say I'll be like a few others and waiting till nearer the last round to put up any shows because of later picks involvement in my early ideas.

    Thanks for Men On A Mission MNG. Badly needed a tag team to fluff out my division. I'll certainly use both but think Big Daddy V might break away over the course of my fed.

    Ironically I was actually going to draft him with Val but it was a no tag teams round. Think I'm good get writing.

    Thought it needed a quick update with two picks each in this round!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,662 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Sorry for the delay, hope those Teds aren't already gone and MNG is happy to have a father and son on his roster now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,804 ✭✭✭A Brad Maddox Guy


    Sorry Liz but Teddy Hart's gone


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,662 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Sorry Liz but Teddy Hart's gone

    Pick amended to Ciampa & Gargano


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Do Ciampa and Gargano meet the tag rules sufficiently?

    I was put off picking them a couple of rounds ago as I didn't think they tagged enough to qualify.

    I am NOT saying they shouldn't be picked, I think they should be allowed based on on the rules as written.

    As I mentioned on here before I struggle to figure out some rules (or maybe the spirit of them) and just want to try and figure this one out for the last few rounds.

    I would like to see the tag rule qualified better next year. A minimum number of tags inside a set period maybe?

    An example of where I am confused would be, I found a team who tagged together over three years in one promotion but they only tagged 11 times. Would they qualify?

    I changed now to Rick Martel


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Ah no don't change I was asking about the rule rather than arguing the pick.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,662 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I have asked BH if pick is ok but I don't want to slow down the draft until he replies


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Delighted to receive Dibiase Junior. I'm working on my first show at the moment and I'm going to give Junior an important role.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,103 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    I was asked about that tag team before and said they were probably just the wrong side of borderline although given time they would probably end up fitting the criteria. At that point they had only tagged together 9/10 times ever and to make up the 3 months even if they were not consecutive I would have had to count one match in a month as counting for that month in at least 1 case as before this month they had only had a max of 2 matches together in a month (and that was only twice iirc) while still having separate singles matches.

    They have actually tagged together 2/3 times since that previous inquiry which would make it a lot easier to ok them together.

    I know this one isn't a major one but I usually (well the 2 times I've run it and last year iirc) say that people should raise issue on whatever rules before hand so that they can be amended, removed or improved or whatever based on what people think. Mostly people just wanna get started though but I hope next time be it clarification on what kind of tag teams are ok or whatever people do ask then even if im not running it.

    There is a huge gray area in this regard though for instance depending on who the above was I would not be surprised if your pick was given the green light. Did they have a tag team name? did they win Tag team gold at some point? Were they in programs where although not tagging together they were on screen together building to when they did tag together? etc

    things like those could influence the person in the position I am in this year into thinking they are fine or at least fit similar criteria to a previously allowed pick.

    If people think a previously allowed pick shouldn't be allowed I think they should says so before a draft starts or once it finishes in an end of draft review type situation too so thats agreed and nobody goes on to pick them in the next draft. For instance even though I wasn't running it I remember people thinking the Japanese tag teams were def loopholes just cos they were not western world champs that needed closing so (Tanahashi/Nakamura or Misawa/Kobashi) I introduced the IWGP world title rule and had a deceased wrestler round meaning they wouldn't go together. I'm sure the person running it next year (fairly sure who they'll be) would do the same too.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    So Liz can change her pick back now? I hope so.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,103 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    As They have had 2/3 matches together in each of the last 3 months now (having had those 3 matches since the previous inquiry about their eligibility) I will say they just about fit the criteria.

    tbh It looks like they are going to be tagging going forward on NXT but until they had those extra 3 matches this month I dunno if I woulda been able to justify their being okayed as a tag team if anyone had questioned the pick.


    Things def have slowed down a lot. Still though its usually close to WM weekend we are finished so we obviously in no rush even though that those usually include all the write ups being done by then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,662 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Can I change my pick back so?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,103 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Yeah sorry if I wasn't clear enough when saying they just about fit the criteria now.

    Less than 2 hrs till we have our first missed deadline :( Hopefully Stereo can get on in the next 90 mins. What happens if he misses his slot? Do the next person just go ahead and Stereo can make his pick whenever he gets on or does he have to wait till everybody else goes now?

    Usually, if someone misses they go to the end of the round.

    If a person misses their pick they have to wait until the end of the round. I think if they then miss that 24 hrs they lose the pick entirely.

    Question I have is what would happen with the pick for Liz's roster? This is probably the most awkward round for a missed pick. Hopefully it won't matter & Stereo will get on but he's not been active for a few days now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,025 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    I guess the next person could pick for liz

    I would assume the person picking next in place of Stereo would make the pick for Lizs roster.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    In the event Stereo can't make his pick then I guess he would pick for liz when he can make his pick.

    Just did my Week 1 Show which features the crowning of my new World Heavyweight Champion. Here it is in one post for convenience:

    Monday Night Grappling - Week 1 Show (A Champion Crowned)

    Feedback as always is appreciated. I will look to give my thoughts on some of the shows I missed real soon.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Well done on the write ups so far. Will try to provide feedback this week.

    Finally figured out how to start my own main events by drawing from my previous write ups in 2013.

    Now need to figure the rest of the card out!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,542 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Can BH confirm who I've to pick for?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,103 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Having missed his go stereo maniac is no longer before you in the order do pick for Liz.

    Stereo can pick for TBC (now no.19) when he makes his catch up pick at the end of the round

    It will be the lad before TBC, as TBC has already had someone picked for him by the first pick in this round
