Better @ me jack

Are you talking to me? One part of War Machine is gone.

You changed it already actually.

Yeah. I want the other half.

 

[JackSlater]

Yeah. I want the other half.

I'm not big on trades but you can send an offer. That was a fast edit by the way.

 

[GKJ]

Will select soon

 

[JackSlater]

I used 2 Cold Scorpio the last two years, definitely an underrated wrestler.

 

[les Habs]

@GongShowWilly, you forgot conspiracy theorist.

 

[les Habs]

Five matches now completed.

I honestly dont know why people sit out each year. Its so much fun. Even if i lose in the first round i love voting and seeing how people built their cards up.

It is...
But for me personally...
I no longer wish to get pissed off at people I have never met in my life...
And then get a warning for it.


I have a great summer so far...
And the only change is that I no longer participate in any mock drafts.

I don't know that much about her. I needed another woman and she fit what I needed, and as you say she seems to be promising. I actually had to research for that pick because I don't know a lot about female wrestlers. Her match is supposed to be something of a frivolity but it still might as well feature some good wrestling.

Personally...
I like her work rate...
As she is definitely one of the better workers in Stardom...
And she can cut a decent promo.
Add to the fact that she has a great look for the WWE audience...
And she is just 21...
The sky is the limit for her.

I am just not sure about her character.
I think she is supposed to be a competitive athlete...
But I have never fully understood any of the characters in Stardom anyways.

Shirai is definitely the best female worker I have ever seen in the last decade or so.
Her athleticism is unparalleled...
And her stamina is on par with Toyota...
So I was really disappointed when her WWE contract got pulled last year.

While I am glad WWE finally signed her...
Because her talents deserve to be seen by worldwide audiences...
I do worry about how WWE will use her though...
Especially on the main roster.
In the meantime...
Just enjoy her talents...
Because you guys are in for a treat.

Great pick GKJ.
I waited a long time to post this comment.

I do find it interesting that Brie is selected before Nikki...
And they are separated.
Is a big trade in the air?

I appreciate the information. I needed someone bitchy or I guess prissy (but can still wrestle well) for what I want and she looks like she can pull it off.

I appreciate the information. I needed someone *****y or I guess prissy (but can still wrestle well) for what I want and she looks like she can pull it off.

Right now...
She is more of a tomboy...
And as someone with a chip on her shoulder...
But I have no doubts about her in-ring talent.
I really liked her match with Shirai about 2 years ago...
So she can definitely hang with the best of them.

Someone in NXT pulled off that transition...
Albeit the other way around...
So Storm can probably do it too.

I await your card.

I see some people taking Tyson and other celebs. I was always under the impression that was illegal in these drafts? @Chris Cutter

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

I think the rule before was it’s allowe if they were used before in wrestling. . I’m pretty sure guys like Tyson and others were taken before. I know one hundred percent that a certain celebrity was taken before too. So if Tyson was a ref you can use him as a ref etc.

He can't be used in a boxing match or a wrestling match if he's never wrestled in one. He can be a special enforcer or things of the sort.

 

[Habsrule]

Ok so I think I am either done or have one more selection to make. Just for fun though I will list my roster of wrestlers. I have my matches made up on paper already. If someone is not participating in this draft, you can send me a list of how you would piece the wrestlers out to make your card.

Great pickup in Tyson Kidd @Morozov . Totally forgot about him. Well done.

 

[Morozov]

When I saw a notification you had mentioned me I thought damn did I misread I thought you were done haha.

It is surprising that he was still around, especially given how Canadian centric this place is.

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

I forgot about blitzkrieg! I was a huge fan.

 

[GongShowWilly]

Growing up , I seriously had the biggest crush on Elizabeth. She was beautiful and classy . But I believed Macho would kick my ass if I ever got close to her lol . My daughter loves Macho and Elizabeth too …. timeless Best couple in wrestling ever !!

 

[les Habs]

Put down the mouse fatboy! Elizabeth only has eyes for The Package!

Barely remember Blitzkrieg. I have somewhat blocked out those years of WCW when someone yet to be drafted was doing the booking.

 

[JackSlater]

You all got jealous eyes!

 

[GongShowWilly]

a close second - even the children love them

 

[Morozov]

Thought I could comfortably wait until free agency for Angelico.
