All-Time Wrestling Draft: 2021

[JackSlater]

I thought that Baker would go earlier. She's had a good year. I thought that Tazz would go earlier as well with his name more prominent again due to AEW.

So did I, I didn’t plan for her but at that point it was time to not pass it up.

 

[JackSlater]

So did I, I didn’t plan for her but at that point it was time to not pass it up.

I'd considered her for a while but the match I wanted her for has already happened, which usually sours me, so she didn't really fit any plans. A nice talent though.

 

[JackSlater]

Also I've got around 8+ hours of driving for an appointment today so I'll be leaving a list with our fearless leader to make picks for me if I come up on the clock.

 

[Kaner9]

I know the anonymous GM is done picking, but it looks like the vast majority are as well.

I will add rounds 21-25.

Who is done picking, if anyone?

Im done for now. If I need anymore wrestlers I can get them in free agency.

 

[theedge9]

I would like to announce a trade deal:

@theedge9 takes Cesaro
@Natey takes Kerry Von Erich and Sparky Plug

@Natey will confirm

 

[JackSlater]

I'm not paying a whole lot of attention to which wrestlers any given person has selected, but Bruindust seems to have a bit of a theme recently.

My picks this year ended up focused on guys from a couple particular eras from two particular promotions. Once I was about 4/5 picks in kind of decided I needed to go in a particular direction with the rest of the roster.

I really must say, dis draft has been a 'uge disappointment, heh-heh. It is unfit for a trew champion such as KingHollyood-eh. None of you have de style, or de class to even compare with KingHollywood-eh heh-heh. Which is just as well, when we tink of one of you peons holding de belt, it makes us sick. Nobody can wear de belt with the dignity and elegance of KingHollywood!
None of you have de Arrogance needed to go toe to toe with de Model either, heh-heh!
Next year KingHollywood will have to defend de championship in Europe, where they have more class and respect for people as fashionable and as talented as KingHollywood and de Model! Dis year KigHollywood is too busy showing everyone in HF wrestling, GKJ, theedge9, Megahab, whoever, how it's done!
De Model and KingHollywood are going to win dis year because we are a trew masterpiece in motion and a walking work of art, heh-heh. By de end, you will know why Arrogance always smells like de sweetnes of success! Ha ha ha.

[les Habs]

I think @Megahab is skipped and it’s @theedge9 who is up.

 

[GKJ]

It’s weird to be at this part of the draft sometimes, I have way fewer matches than I thought. That’s not bad of course.

 

[theedge9]

Same I only have 7 matched at this point

 

[Natey]

Sorry working 12 hour night shifts.

 

[HandsomeHollywood]

@Natey's Headshrinkers pick is invalid. I took S. Fatu as Rikishi not too long ago.

 

[Natey]

@Natey's Headshrinkers pick is invalid. I took S. Fatu as Rikishi not too long ago.

Not invalid at all. Sam Fatu is Rikishi's brother also known as Tama or The Tonga Kid.

 

[HandsomeHollywood]

Not invalid at all. Sam Fatu is Rikishi's brother also known as Tama or The Tonga Kid.

Good to know. I just know S. Fatu made me assume you meant Solofa (Rikishi). Seeing as he is featured prominently in the video you posted. And given the fact that Sam and Samu never teamed together as The Headshrinkers, I will still call the pick invalid.

 

[Natey]

The Headshrinkers are just an extension of the Samoan SWAT team, The Wild Samoans, etc with a different name.

But fine. I'll bow out then. Best of luck.

 

[JackSlater]

Well, that escalated quickly. The pick was a bit confusing but it's now clear. Let's move on.

 

[Megahab]

The Headshrinkers are just an extension of the Samoan SWAT team, The Wild Samoans, etc with a different name.

But fine. I'll bow out then. Best of luck.

Be honest, you originally meant Rikishi.

 

[Natey]

Be honest, you originally meant Rikishi.

I didn't. I use search before every pick. I know he was taken that's why I put S. Fatu instead of just Fatu.

I also didn't know Rikishi's name started with an S so that was my bad but he never went by his first name like Sam either.

It's for the best anyway. I'm working a lot of 24 hour shifts these days and I've held up the draft on more than occasion.

 

[HandsomeHollywood]

A new anonymous GM has stepped up. Will finish out Natey's picks.

 

[les Habs]

Anonymous...

Tonga Kid is a bit before my time so I looked him up. Didn't know Rikishi had a twin brother, and then both of them had their own sets of twins.

Re; State of the Draft Address
​

To the HF Draft participants, I would like to take this moment to catch you up to speed.
This year we have had two participants quit. I cannot recall a time since I have joined where this has happened.
As some of you may or may not know, I do like to use precedent when making draft decisions as much as possible. The anonymous general manager is a tactic used by commissioners since before my time running the draft. This is the easiest fix there is and it is up to them to remain anonymous or not. They are doing us a favor by stepping up to take over some cards so we aren't down numbers, and I thin the majority prefers this to re-dispersing the picks, or ruling people like Steve Austin or Tanahashi unusable.
Both anonymous general managers can accept trades. It is up to them to reveal themselves however. If you want to access a trade with either GM, you can post in the discussion thread like les Habs has done once already. Then they can decide if they wish to reach out. The alternative is sending me the trade offer and I send it to the GMs.
I would also like to state that no, I did not make up the anonymous GMs and I am neither of them. They are indeed two different living, breathing people. Them being anonymous is just traditional as that's how this began the first time.
Please, post the accurate names of who you are picking to avoid confusion and, admittedly uncalled for, arguing. Some participants have expressed they want the names in place as they want to avoid clarification revealing unnamed wrestlers.
