PW Draft 2014 - Discussion Thread

connemara man

I have it written D'Lo not D-Lo so I'd guess thats why

A Brad Maddox Guy

Damn you Hashtag!! I had taken Renee Young to be a cert not to be picked. Another re-write for my next show I guess

Sorry amended updated roster on previous page

and ill do it on the OP of the other thread incase that is what Liz is using each time she goes to update the picks so far list she is always good enough to keep ( i did for the first few rounds but now just copy and pasting her work)

still have a few shows to read but went back and realised I had missed an ICW show. Really liked how you used a different format to everyone else as it made yours stick out for me. I did a similar year long background post last year before later moving on to some individual show posts in the build to BWA mania 5 last year so im def curious to see what form your shows take from now on and what happens with some of your lesser mentioned folk from that recap like Hall. def the inter-promotional stuff and the legal stuff was a good hook though and im curious to see how the CWA storyline develops

Hashtag_HEEL

Had to take a little pop at ya there TSC! :P couldn't resist!

Bounty Hunter

Liz takes heidenreich, was considering reuniting him with Michael cole if I had to pick for that person in the next round!

Actually looking toward to that draw and checking out other peoples rosters and deciding who would suit being picked for them

beakerjoe

Second Show up. Really enjoying the draft in my debut year so far. Having great fun writing and reading. Have set up most of my feuds now in the 2nd show and still a few twists planned, especially for the PPV

thebostoncrab

Picks made and PM sent.


Positive Adam Cole has never been drifted before, gonna debut him into the draft in a big big way

JP Liz V1

Is the final round next pick for another roster?

Yeap.

Not decided on a timeframe for a deadline yet. Last year, it fell nicely that we could end on Mania weekend if I remember right, but don't think we'll be that lucky this year. Probably do it as 2 weeks after the last pick though.

I am up next to pick. Have to think about my pick. Want a face tag team of some sort cause feel I'm a bit light on faces. Was going to pick Zack Gowen but he went :mad:

thebostoncrab

Every year I think we have had the deadline extended, so can we make it three weeks to save a post? :P

If I give three, ye will want 4 :P

Moneymaker

Would really appreciate some feedback on my shows if possible.

Furious-Red

Have half of episode 2 done , So fingers crossed should be up by tonight

Lord TSC

Right, decided to have some fun with my last two picks.

Tenta is a high enough profile name and gives me plenty to work with, as well as having a fun tag team to write for. And the Headbangers hold nostalgic value for me cause I used to love them on the old video games :P

Totally forgot about that theme song. Pity the team only lasted a short while.

How are we working the drafts for round 16? Pick for whoever you want and then they are eliminated? Or are we assigned a poster to pick for?

It's in the picks thread. You're choosing for BeakerJoe's roster

ShagNastii

Cool. It wasn't there when I was looking at the draft thread. Nice roster to pick for:)

Just took a look at Cmans show again and his roster, plenty of picks I can think of that could relate to his roster, but which avenue to take??? Ive already 5 guys that could add to his roster due to connections within his current roster.

Well if you were me who would you want ;-)
I like doing this even if it adds a small bit to a roster it's cool

Bounty Hunter

Already know who im picking for Campo, think he will be pleased and this guy will fit into his storylines well

thebostoncrab

A man with very similar wrestling tastes to my own, delighted to get Walt to pick for, have a few names he might like!

Mr.Nice Guy

Feels a bit like it comes full circle with me opening the picks and now making the last one. Will have to have my thinking cap on with who to pick for Hashtag. Midget wrestlers don't get represented much in this game now that I think about it.

Had a read of a few more write-ups. Managed to make it to the top of page three. Thoughts on those I read:

Lebowskilite – Clearly a lot of thought went into your plans with the back story of recent months, as well as match types like the Survival of the Fittest and Belt Battle matches. You've done very well getting over the feel of the show as authentic. Looking forward to more.

Jester252 – I liked Y2J's ‘Jericho championship wrestling’ line. It was a fun way to debut Swagger which I liked. Good matches too. Dreamer/Grandmaster was especially well done.

BH – Entertaining promos with some funny lines. Bret continues to be a fun character and his 'I loved it when I left it' remark was a favourite. You've done well getting the Japanese guys over with the North American audiences which is important.

Shag – I liked the well written promos you did which really got inside the characters. Flair's and Cena's felt authentic. The Springer segment was also effective. My favourite moment was the end segment which was great.

Liz - Shatner and Heenan are still fun. They're like two whacky uncles or something. Looking forward to Angle and Hassan if that's the way you're going?

Will get to the others when I can. Hope I haven't miss anyone.

2nd show up

Still to pick...
19. Prop Joe
20. A Brad Maddox Guy

BONUS ROUND: Round 16!

Stipulation: Choose for Another Person
You guys wanted it, so I shall oblige In this final round, you're choosing for the person listed AFTER you on the draft order.

The order for this round is...
1. HashtagHeel
2. BrianRegan
3. Jester252
4. ShagNastii
5. BeakerJoe
6. ConemaraMan
7. Prop Joe
8. A Brad Maddox Guy
9. JPLiz
10. BountyHunter
11. Campo
12. MrKIsCool
13. RAF32
14. TBC
15. Waltersobchek
16. Lewbowskilitle
17. MoneyMaker
18. TeamShadowclan
19. Furious Red
20. MNG

So the round will start with Hashtag making a pick for Brian, Brian will then pick for Jester, Jester picks for Shag, and so on and so forth. We close the draft with MNG choosing for Hashtag then.

A quick request; this round works best if people take a little time to look over the roster of the person they are choosing for and tries to bring in a final character which suits their roster in someway; be it because it's something similiar to what they have or something you feel their roster needs. Be nice. Put a bit of thought into it

(Also, quick note...check the tag team limits; do not draft a tag team if the person you are choosing for already has reached their 5 team limit).

So for the final time, GO!

Now who to pick for BH

Now who to pick for BH

looking forward to finding out, im sure I have enough folk with history with others if your thinking of going that route. I wont be putting up another show until your pick thats for sure as I have already got 3 up and depending on whom you send my way might need to write the person into a storyline with my remaining build up show.

Meanwhile youve got a brad maddox guy doing the honours for yourself, the same man you just picked Sunny to round off the normal picks, considerd her myself at one point considering her history with Bret but decided I wanted someone more known for in ring talent so went for Mickie for that Role in the end.

Will probably have to wait till Saturday to read the shows ive not commented on yet but plan to read a big bunch of them in 1 go then and def intend on giving feedback cos like Money maker says above (his will prob be one of those) feedback is always appreciated (Cheers MNG)
