Suppose bed can wait then

waltersobchak

How many people are up for trades this year lads? Cause I've got one guy i think i might need to get rid of, if i can find a suitable opponent for him..

My pick is now also up, delighted to get Chavo and Hernadez plus with Del Rio already on my roster it is something to work with

thebostoncrab

Drat BH, there goes the second pick on my list! Not surprised, two excellent men that suit your roster perfectly

Bounty Hunter

pick made, pm sent (cheers for the pm Campo), next guy is online too, nice little late night run here

edit: sorry to dissapoint TBC, kinda surprised they slipped through to me tbh, decided to pass up a singles star I wanted and am sure will be gone by the next round to take em though as like you say I think they fit well

BWA Roster 2014;

and im thankful for that fact

Great pick BH.. Literally had The Freebirds written up yesterday and was just about to hit post when i remembered Jake Roberts hadn't been picked yet, they should suit your roster perfectly

waltersobchak

Also great pick mrkiscool2.... What a diverse roster! Pretty sure the drafts gonna be done by the Rumble and not Mania weekend this year lads
:pac:

I was so very happy I got him! I wasn't sure I would get him when I saw the draw so am very relieved indeed!

Bounty Hunter

Beakers online too now flying through the picks so we are. cheers Walt btw and if you wanna trade ill give you steve williams for however you have in mind (doubt it, 100% chancing my arm but what have i got to lose and ive yet to think of something for Dr Death)

campo

Who you looking to swap Walt

waltersobchak

Kenta Kobashi possibly lads..

brianregan09

There goes my lax idea lol

ShagNastii

Brian you have to book Bossman and OMG as the twin towers. Such a killer tag team.

There is no denying

Blue Shirt Bossman > Corporation Bossman and Akeem > One Man Gang


Saying that it's lovely when you draft somebody that has quite a stacked resume in terms of career gimmicks. Sort of opens up even more possibilities in terms of write ups and scope for feuds. Will we see Nicky from the Spirit Squad reign in NWO:Anarchy or will the whitest man alive Kervin White be showing up in BWE?

beakerjoe

Pick made. Fandango was the man I wanted. EC3 is a lovely brucie bonus.

Have big plans for Fandango.

Originally wanted Regal but since hes gone, his replacement can be picked in a later round. Wanted to make sure I got Johnny Curtis

brianregan09

As for bossman and omg all im gonna say is poor Rollins is gonna suffer

Lord TSC

Had hoped Chavo would last way longer.

Don't think you're the first person to say that lol

There are a few midcard card guys I have my eye on with soild angle ideas. Am going try hold out a few rounds and hope they go unpicked. Like you missing Chavo I'll probably end up not being hasty/lucky enough.

beakerjoe

Once no "Cat amungst the pigeons" type strip takes guys off my roster, I have 4 feuds sets up.

Hopefully a kind draw in teh enxt round will help me get the next guy on my list

A Brad Maddox Guy

I really hadn't planned on that pick. Took a risk by leaving who I have plans for in the hope they'll slip through to me next round, was just really surprised Booker made it this far. He wasn't even the only big name I could've gone for either.

Jester252

With five guys left in the round, we should be seeing the next round draw soon. Kinda hope there is a Stip.

beakerjoe

Surprised Booker Lasted so long. Was never on my list but Hes a serious player and could be fun to write for. The Freebirds were my pick of the round so far.

Will there be a Stip for the next round...only 5 more picks til Round 6

I kind of do to but at the same time I think I should be careful of what i wish for. The Stip can be a harsh mistress. A steal another guys pick round would be unpredictibly horrible and awesome at the same time. Same goes for a pick for the next guy round

Lord TSC

Round 7 will be our next stip round.

Then likely Rounds 10, 12 and 13. Still a lot of big names left, so see can we churn through them in this round.

We're flying this year. Usually takes till March to get the drafting done, and then Mania weekend is closing date for writeups, but can see drafting being done far earlier this year.
