    I was seconds away from pressing post on my original pick when I thought of them.

    Can we use other company's titles but rename them as our respective fed titles.

    well my guys fight for the BWA world heavyweight title and I use whatever HW title I find in a pic that suits my situation or has my wrestler with it if thats what you mean. Usually we compete on BWA Raw heading towards BWA Wrestlemania but sometime we will have our own made up PPV.

    People have made up new titles to suit their fed and used graphics programs to make images of their belts too iirc but tbh that stuff isnt too important when compared to the feud and match up of wrestlers competing for said belts.

    Essentially you can do whatever you want in terms of names and titles etc

    edit: A perfect example was Diabhal Beag in 2013 and his " Gráinne Seoige World Heavyweight Champion"

    Brian treat my boy Big E well I've had him since I started the draft I was hoping he'd slip through but this stip makes him a great addition....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,484 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Pick made and pm sent :D

    Cannot believe Ziggler who is a massively popular topic in alot of the threads on here has made it this far and to get Big E with him aswell is a massive bonus, I knew they were a team around the time Ziggler won the WHC but i wasn't sure if it was long enough so I had to ask TSC so so happy with my picks

    Yeah, seeing as i have Bully Ray as 1 of my picks, and in the picture i used he's holding the TNA World Championship, so i was thinking of renaming the TNA World Championship to the IWF World Heavyweight Championship or vacating the title and going from there... I would use graphics programs to make my own belt, alas my photoshopping skills aren't that good. I'll just run with the vacant title idea for now, as then plan it as my roster gets bigger.

    You got Dolph Ziggler



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Had considered Big E with Ziggler, took a while to find but they did indeed have 3 months tagging together, even more I guess cos Ziggler got concussed in the middle of their run and they kept tagging for a while after he returned.

    I also have Campos pick in my inbox so I'll put that up for him :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    Flying through the picks, round 4 could happen tonight.

    Now to pick someone big still left, or pick someone who I think id need more yet could get in the later round. I picked Jake over John Morrison earlier and it cost me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,804 ✭✭✭A Brad Maddox Guy


    Ah I didn't think they ever tagged enough to count so didn't consider them. Almost picked Ziggler on his own :P

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    another top choice gone, woulda loved AJ


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    AJ is a great pick, but I didnt want to have the Shawn and AJ on the same roster as F-Red had those to last year. Keepin it fresh n all that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Pick made for Campo and PM sent on his behalf :)


    I was thinking of leaving Manami for one more round. I know neither she not Aja would have been drafted but I didn't want to risk not having the greatest women ever on an all female roster. Hopefully that won't bite me in the ass and I loose the other two women I've my eye on next round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭mrkiscool2


    Ah campo, great pick there! Would never have thought of him to be fair (even though he wouldn't fit in with the direction I am taking).

    As long as you don't take the one woman I want on my roster I don't mind (don't think you will either, she is a bit out of left field!)

    I can safely say I won't be drafting anyone that would be considered a "diva" or valet if that helps :)

    Haha no, she is a wrestler and she will have a match on the card if I get her!

    Wow been away for the day and things have escalated to an insane degree. Ooouuch

    Have an idea who i'd like this round but i doubt they'll last till me tbh...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,365 ✭✭✭campo


    LOD/Road Warriors were on my list but I knew they would never go another round..

    Anyway happy so far

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,484 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    I love my roster so far all 4 of them could be my Champion !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Think I'm up next. I'm torn between two. Will try not to take too long over it. I'm going to grab a snack and I'll try and have my choice up within the hour.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭Uncle Walt


    Oooooh phhheww! Im was almost 100% sure you were gonna go for my pick there MNG! :cool::):cool:

    Mysterio/Mistico were my back up so yeah amazing pick!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    There's a few great options left that I was trying to choose between but the chance of having the insurance of a huge match-up from just one fell swoop was to good for me to turn down.

    Interested to see who you go for, walt.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭Uncle Walt


    Yeah definitely still plenty of choice left, i wonder how this round will effect the later rounds, with lots of talent usually drafted later, now drafted so early in the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Quality pick. RVD and Sabu were on my shortlist too. :cool:

    Surprised they lasted this long tbh as they'd suit a lot of rosters.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,804 ✭✭✭A Brad Maddox Guy


    Almost went for RVD & Sabu myself but didn't want to be too much of a hardcore fed. I'm praying for a really early pick in the next round; could make or break me and my plans.

    Edit: Of course now that I've said that I fully expect to be number 20 in round 4.

  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Any ideas what the stip for Round 4 will be or will there be a stip?

    I think it's just a normal round.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Cheers TBC, like Liz before you ive copied and pasted that into the OP of the other thread so if anyone else does up a list like that later on itd be great.

    torn between 2/3 options now but 2 people before me will probably help with that (think I saw Lebowski who is next on a minute ago) plus I should get to see the ext round draw before I pick. My placement on that will also help me decide I think as I will then know how likely I am to get a later pick

    O and dang you Walt, suit your fed perfectly but RVD & Sabu were another team like AJ & Daniels I had plans for, shouldnt have expected them to make it to me but only 3 off in the end


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,365 ✭✭✭campo


    YAY Got No.1 pick, in 4 years of the draft this is only the 2nd time I got No.1 but it ads a little pressure now to make sure I don't let anyone slip through the net


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    *Shakes fist at Campo and TSC*

    Use it wisely, with great power comes great.... responsibility pressure

    Damn! Right at the bottom.

    I should've guessed I'd be at the bottom, had an idea on the way in to work about where I wanted to go with my main feud and who would be perfect to play it through ... Man plans and God laughs, as they say.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,804 ✭✭✭A Brad Maddox Guy


    While 9 isn't the worst I'd imagine that even the backup to my backup is unlikely to reach me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    Great pick there, Cody and Sandow were higher on my list than a lot of former champions. Great to write for with plenty of scope or each guy


  • Registered Users Posts: 418 ✭✭lebowskilite


    "Screw the Stip, Sandow will save us!" - Pretty much the logical process I went through about 3 minutes ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Will have the pick up now in 5 minutes. Think I may be forced to act earlier than i wanted to on this next pick.

    sweet Jeenus thats some main event


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Aaaah, I was really hoping Sandow would last longer :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    You could of got him with The Miz instead of JoMo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    Very predictable pick BH. Wouldnt be a draft for you without them.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Ha was not actually my original plan (went through so many of them) but after seeing my no.18 in the next round made my decision and im very happy to welcome back Kenta Kobashi & Misawa...

    BWA 2015 aka
    CM Punk vs Japan


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,365 ✭✭✭campo


    Was tempted to take Nash with a partner in last round but did not see Warrior lasting much longer, anyway glad to bring him back to the CWA.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,879 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    every member of the CWA could legit be in your main event so far, and i'd say backstage would be fierce fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,755 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    "My next pick is...

    *BIG DADDY COOL DIESAL

    Who?

    Is that Diesels Non union Mexican equivalent ???:pac::D:pac:

    Oh I know, and I jumped back and forth between JoMo and Mizdow, but went with JoMo so I can do "The Dirtsheet", hoping Sandow would last another round or two :(

    I was surprised that Miz/Mizdow wasn't taken in that round, but I imagine there'd be pressure to write a better ending for the partnership than the actual WWE story happening at the same time as the draft.
