@Natey I like a lot of the talent you chose here some of which goes undrafted or gets little fanfare. I also like the Stairway to Heaven match gimmick and participants. Nice use of poor Andy Kaufman. You got my vote here.

@anonymousGM You inherited a tough group so respect for taking it on.

 

[GKJ]

Man, I really wonder what that card was supposed to be.

Thanks man. I'm very happy with my card considering I had such a small pool of wrestlers (all who have passed away) to draft from.

I could tell that's where you were going, that's a very hard thing to pull off, but that's the beauty of the draft as well when people have different value for specific reasons. Excellent idea.

Funny thing, is originally, my plan was all guys who were never World Champion but had the quality to be that. It was like that for the first 3 draft picks, but then I thought this would be more fun and interesting, so I went for it.

 

[Voight]

Great idea RE McMahon vs Bischoff

 

[BruinDust]

I went Natey here. I've used themes for both of my drafts now so I can appreciate the theme used here honoring pro wrestlers who have passed away.

Anonymous GM you had a tough job with the roster you inherited and I think what you pulled off here is very good. Well done.

 

[JackSlater]

Went with Natey, one of my favourite main events and I appreciate when a theme gets executed properly. Anonymous, well at least that card is a draw in the historical sense, and that's what it's all about to some.

One thing I don't miss about this is the incredibly unethical trade offers I used to receive from les Habs. Good luck to all!

@Natey - just a bit confused by your main event, is the title hanging 5 feet above the cell.. like on the outside? So, do the participants have to find a way to break out of the cell? Or is the title hanging inside the cell from the celling?

Outside of that, that is a fantastic card!

Maybe I can get Hollywood to clarify in my card. I was in a rush.

The middle square at the top of the cell is open to start. The idea is that you would climb the ladder, get out of the cell, and swing shut the middle cell square. You'd then be able to stand on the middle square and the grab the title that hangs 5 feet above the top of the cell.

The idea is that the winner would be standing atop of the cell, holding the championship, with the lid shut and their fallen foes inside.

Of course.... you never know what can happen! They could break out of the cell and climb the side!

Oh! Okay. I like that. Makes more sense now.

I didn't know what Natey was doing in the draft, and if I'm being honest I was dreading finding out. Only to discover a happy surprise. This is the first acceptable use of dead wrestlers I've seen in this draft. Normally I find it low class but this is a combo breaker.

Poor anonymous could not make his card the next big thing.
