    is only 1 carnation of a wrestler allowed ???

    Moxley is Dean Ambrose too etc

    You can book them whatever way you want but they are still just one person. Using the moxely example as he has been picked already, if Nitro wants he could have him doing double duty under both his personas on his card but they aren't different people.

    Macho Man was my third choice this round, couldn’t believe when I found that photo of him either! Of all the crimes 😂

    It's mental. I had seen the photo but wanted to check the validity of it since his kayfabe name is listed on it

    I'm almost happy that I'm going last this round as I have about 5/6 wrestlers I couldn't/can't choose between.


    I had one standout but will have to wait for the different stipulation.

    Triple H Savage feud is money considering the rumours

    I think we may have had Savage/Trips before. Triple H has so many dimensions. The possibilities in how to book him are endless.

    So happy to see Vince go early. I’ve had him twice and in any draft he has never been less than gold. Easily argued that he is pro wrestling’s biggest character.

    Yeah could have easily tried for someone to match up with Cena but (even though there will not be as much) writing should be so much more appealing with a character like Vince to write for. Much easier to thread a storyline throughout a card too.

    That's the thing about the draft, we have had so many different promotions down through the years that most mega feuds from the past that never happened have happened but sure still go ahead and book the likes of Hunter/Macho Man as I for one will not be comparing it to a former draftees storyline. Vader vs Moxley could be a war, Brock/Hardy would be great to watch as well and Flair/Adam Cole could be really interesting especially if say they had groups with them. Battle of the spears with Edge & Goldberg is possible too, will also be interesting to see what TBC does with characters like Angle & Jericho even if they have had many matches in the past.

    Plus with the way the rules have changed over the years, and folks have become more familiar with more non WWE talent, your 1 and 2 picks aren’t necessarily to main event or big feud.

    To be honest, I don’t intend on putting Jericho or Angle against each other! I have a list of dream match ups I’d love to see for either man that I hope to pull off

    Had a feeling you might go a different way then putting them together, that said I do like the look of some potential match ups already. Bryan V Bret now stands out too.

    Do Hall and Mr. Perfect have to be used as a tag-team, or can they be singles too?

    Once tag teams are drafted they can be used however you like.

    I have PMed Liz as I can't find any indication Owen Hart had trouble with the law on or off screen.

    Davey Boy is grand though

    Ah grand.


    I couldn't find anything for Owen Hart, and I did a fair bit of looking. Fair play to Liz if they had something, good pick.

    Round 3 order up given there are only 5 left to pick in this round - the Rumble Order round has been deferred to Round 4.
