    Cheers Joe, really appreciate the feedback and looking forward to getting the your shows soon (had been doing most of my reading of shows on my phone while travelling to and from work & university but didn't have it for the past few days but got it fixed today)

    Just thought I'd point out that although I still kinda expect to have to extend the March 23rd (9 days from now) deadline that when the official deadline does end I plan to also give a few extra days to allow for reading time especially considering there are usually many last minute entries and PPVs tend to be quite long.


    After which there will be voting which will consist of 3 catagories each of which you are asked to submit a top 5 in.
    1) Best Roster
    2) Best write up
    3) Best Overall

    I believe someone else other than the organizer (May have been BeakerJoe iirc) has run a Slammy awards show the past few years as well where you would be asked to vote on things like best draft pick, individual character, tag team, feud, match etc although if I'm wrong and the draft organizer also did that let me know as it's no issue for me to also do that.

    LeeMJ :
    I love how AJ Styles is written and he and Taz in a Texas Death Match would be a helluva match at Easter Rising. (Love the PPV name too with the year that's in it). Jerichos pre-match promo was exactly what you would expect from Y2J and was very easy to imagine him in. Is Rick O'Shea an homage to the FM104 DJ haha. Pairing JR with Alpha 4 is a great move and a nice thrown back to Dr Deaths WWF days, but its topped by the pairing of Lawler and Debra, they seem like a natural fit. The ending with DDP was brilliant, I didn't see it coming at all and Jericho v DDP should be gold. Will his DDP yoga be a secret way of recruiting his followers? A great read my friend and look forward to more.

    MNG :
    Show 3 was an excellent read and it shows you haven't lost your touch. I liked the Virgil joke at Iishis expense and Finn came across so well in this opening segment. He and Edges slow build so far has been excellent, with you not quite knowing if Edge is on the up and up or if Finn is over reacting. Ted Dibiase in control of the night was a nice touch and brought the show in a welcome different direction. Liked the way you've used Ivelisse and you've done a super job of getting her over. Axel v Larry was written well, I really didn't see Larry turning on poor Curtis. Iishi and Vader has been built up well and I really love how Ted has him by the balls. Storm and Hansen are a good fit together based on mutual respect (and similar gimmicks ha, just kidding) and having Ted jr be revealed as the man helping his father was a nice touch. Great idea of who ever gets the pin gets to pick the stip and I didn't see Finn allowing Edge to have the pin, great mind games there. Great ending with Edges true colours showing, I wonder what Stip he will choose. Great stuff as always.

    BradMaddoxGuy :
    Show 2 was a step up from the already enjoyable first show. Delighted Pillman won and even more delighted that your pushing Johnny Curtis hard. Faannn-Dannn-Gooooo versus RVD has great potential (you know who I'm rooting for ha). Loving the LoC and Omega and Okada are booked very well. Okada v Pillman later on in the show should be money. Poor RVD, hes taken a beating this week. The Miz and Mizdow/Batistow stuff was excellent, really was top stuff (esp the pic). Loved the commentary too and I loved the finish to the main event and I look forward to it already. I'm guessing Pillman might be the blonde guy that attacked Batista but we shall see. Great stuff man, you're PPV is shaping up nicely.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,823 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Mrk has picked and with that The drafting is complete!

    So who are you surprised were not drafted?

    My top picks here would be:

    D-Von Dudley, am I right that he wasn't taken ? I know Bubba was picked on his own in an early round and then I would guess everyone assumed D-Von would go to the same roster later but I don't think that ever happened.

    Dan "The Beast" Severn, 2 time NWA champion including a 4+year reign, UFC hall of famer and a member of last years draft winning team but much like the (well I thought they were at the time) bargain duo of The Original Shiek & Abdullah The Butcher Dan Severn just could not find a place on any roster this year.

    Vickie Guerrero, I think she has been drafted almost every year and actually usually has a big role to play on the rosters she joins as the heat magnet GM but I don't believe anyone wanted her style of latino heat this year for whatever reason

    to a lesser extend I'm a little surprised nobody had a place for Stevie Richards (perhaps as part of a RTC gimmick), The Mexicools, Rockstar Spud or perhaps a Baron Corbin or WIld Samoans pick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,753 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    should have Show 3 up later and working on Show 4 now (still plenty to do) and hopefully have my PPV up next week. Thanks for all the feedback so far and I can honestly say its been a joy to read so many quality fantasy shows.

    Baron Corbin was on my radar this year, but my plans changed when I drafted Breeze. I think as a character he has bags on potential.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,359 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    My pick I never made was Shibata and Goto. Was going to have Jinder Mahal recruit them to take down another wrestler.

    Jinder would call them the JPA (Jinder's Protection Agency).

    Jinder would take some jobs, then get left high and dry by the lads who set up on their own as the Japanese Protection Agency.

    Vickie was my GM back-up in case I didn't get Cornette. She seems to be underrated in this game. I picked her for someone else's roster one year and she probably would have been avoided that time too if I hadn't. I think she's a good option. Corbin would have been good value too.

    I thought for sure D-Von would go. Was Rick Steiner picked? I thought he would go as well. I also thought Jack and Jerry Brisco would go. Dunno if they went? I think Victoria and Mickie James were good options near the end also.

    beakerjoe (show 2) -
    I liked the opening segment and the focussing in on each of the Horsemen Reborn members; that was a fun touch. Also a great heel move for Cesaro to have him beat up Farmer as Ric Flair. The crowd would be fuming for that one. Can't wait for Martel to get what's coming to him although the 'El Slave-o' line did make me laugh, as did that jobber name Harold S. Cross. Looks like Nakamura vs EC3 is the direction which should be a great one and hard to know who will come out on top. I loved the segment with Martel, Stiller and Breeze. You had the perfect cast there for that one. I got a kick out of the later skit too with Breeze not knowing Zoolander was a character. Great promo for Emma - if only WWE would give her something interesting like this. I was pleased Bayley walked out on her. Poor Kerry as well: I look forward to what he has in store for Zeb. The end segment was a definite money segment and reminded me of a female version of Tyson and Austin's one. That match will be great and I'm wondering what way you will book the finish.

    A Brad Maddox Guy (show 2) -
    The first semi-final match was well done and I liked the finish with Pillman getting the knees up. Good to see Faaann-dan-gooo being presented way better than on WWE. Omega is another fun character. The second semi-final was also well done and I liked the touch of Graham having more stamina because of an easier match last week. I also liked how you contrasted the styles of Graham's old school offence with Okada's modern moves. The ending played into the story with Pillman and I thought that was a great segment with Pillman and Maddox. It's refreshing to see a wrestler take charge like Pillman did. In WWE we would have Stephanie calling all the shots and making demands with the wrestlers being passive. Looking forward to your plans for Sin Cara. Batisdow was a great concept and I LOL'd at Miz and the line 'celebrates with a replica title bought by many online'. I enjoyed the main event and the table spot and I liked the cage match stip which makes sense in order to avoid any run-ins. Great read once again.

    I'll have my fourth show up in the next hour or so, just have to finish editing. Will endeavour to get some feedback and my preview up by the weekend before I make the final push with my PPV. Will try to get all done by original deadline.

    and now to give some feedback for the first 3 shows on Pg 2 of the evaluation thread which I read today and first off I know people say this every year but the standard has improved because all 3 of these shows were quality and combined with the ones I read from page 1 (unless the standard dips and if anything the shows will build to a big blow off) there will probably be more contenders this year.


    ImnotheHulk:
    Really enjoyed Enzo & Cass and their interaction with the Ortons, from the start it meant I knew you would produce well written shows. the next match with The American / USSR teams actually highlights for me how strong your roster actually is, there is far more to it than the eye catching big Wyatt & Rhodes groups. Speaking of The Wyatts, I think Waylon is going to be a great character for you this year although you do gotta wonder how Bray is going to work into this whole scenario in later episodes. Obviously it's Johnny The Bull as Muta as the more well known Muta is on my roster but still creative use of him though I hope nobody is confused by it... overall a very strong start and thats without people like Bray or Dusty even being used yet.

    DM7:
    Shane mimicking his current "you don't know, do you?" storyline was smart and I wonder will we build to Shane vs Piper at the PPV now. I'd say now that you have him Ryback will be fun to write for and you seem like you will write the Guerreros well too. I am very curious to see how you book Los Ingobernables after their intro (ditto La Sombre). Meanwhile your main event def felt big and as a result what happened after it felt even bigger! If people can get past the image of WWEs Alberto Dull Rio then you have a money feud on your hands there imo. Also like how you spoilered the results, I plan to do that again in my PPV like last year.

    beakerjoe:
    This was just a preview but somehow I already feel like we are looking at a big time contender here. Starting with a nice review of your impressive 3rd place finish last year before introducing new stars well and making people like The Von Erichs and Cesaro seem like a big deal. Nice referencing of MNG, the BWA, Jarrett joining Trump and Jake defecting to MWF then Bischoff makes an immediate impact - your womens division looks strong and Elimination chamber and Flair... boom! Good work Eric, things look good for BCW and :D a @BountyHunter tweet...awesome!... might need to edit mine and add BCW to my MNG / WECWF jibes

    Cheers for the feedback! And sorry about the Muta/Johnny The Bull bit. I went back to edit the original post/show to make it clear, but couldn't edit it. So was gonna make it clear at the next show post .. but I've been taking a while to get it written.

    No worries man and as said it was a really good first show and tbh it is a creative use of him even if it could potentially confuse some as only the Muta name is used. I look forward to reading the next installment.

    Happy ive been able to get some feedback in the past few days, Will try and keep doing so as I go along so I dont leave it all to the last minute when im potentially also trying to complete my PPV

    Feedback:

    MNG:
    Really loved the man in the white hat turning up at random places to convince the stars to sign actually kind of reminded me of Smithers getting the MLB baseball stars to join the power plant team. The battle royal was very well done was happy when Balor won but expected a twist as it's too early for the babyface to come out on top and you have a great fued now between him and Edge which would of been a dream match of mine. Like the Stan Hansen/James Storm fued feels like a passing of the torch moment and Curtis Axel been disowned by his grandad while I expected it I'm interested to see where you take it. Overall I've loved everything so far and and really excited for Grapplemania

    LordTSC:
    Very interesting concept for a show, knew you had a good plan n place when you drafted Trump and I was right. The Ambrose/Austin interaction was well done and I actually expected Austin to help Ambrose and not the cabinet so that was a nice twist. Can't wait for the next installment

    BH:
    Would like to know how you get Brock to show up every week. Seriously, really enjoyed it a great main event set between him and Bryan it's actually hard to call a winner in that one. Nice to see Punk back to finish off a story arc. Loved the Rick Rude interactions and can't wait to see what's in store for Nikki's title. Can't wait for what's in store for the big one

    Brock Lesnar is a simple man and all he wanted was to have the opportunity to work in a fine establishment like the BWA on a weekly basis. Oh and he also requested the BWA provide him with this for his farm house, apparently he didn't have a coffee table.

    Here are the full final rosters:



    If there are any mistakes please let me know.

    Ryback is no longer on my roster. He went to DM_7's roster while in return I acquired Hernandez. Also I just noticed there were two Jim Cornettes listed plus two Gail Kims and Molly Hollys, but sadly I've just one of each. :pac:

    I tidied up our two rosters so you can cut and paste them into your recent post:
    Mr.Nice Guy: Finn Balor, Nick Bockwinkel & Ray Stevens, Edge , Stan Hansen, Ted Dibiase & IRS, Vader, Curtis Axel, James Storm, Tomiro Ishi, Manami Toyota, Just Joe (EH 5), Jim Cornette, Molly Holly & Gail Kim, Ted DiBiase Jr, Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton, Konnan, Homicide & Hernandez (trade) aka L.A.X., Ivelisse, Larry Hennig

    DM_7: Randy Orton, Eddie Guerrero, Roddy Piper (trade), Alberto Del Rio, Mark & Jay the Briscoes, Austin Aries, Shane McMahon, Rusev, Pentagon Jr, Adam Cole, Jinder Mahal (EH 16), Chavo Guerrero, Ryback (trade), Michael Elgin, Dalton Castle, Heath Slater & Justin Gabriel, La Sombra (Manny Andrade) and Rush, Blake and Murphy, Mil Muertes

    You're right there. Imagine the promos. :D



    Feedback:

    Bounty Hunter (Rumble show) -
    Heenan continues to be a great character. I'm liking The Heenan Family and its old school feel, plus the modern touch of having Lesnar adds to it. Good to see Arn and Tully booked strong too. I like the Von Erich storyline and their grievances. George is being booked well too and the one-liners from Heenan's commentary made me laugh. I especially liked his line in the Rumble that it was only luck that Arn and Tully drew sequential numbers. The Rumble was well written and I particularly liked El Generico showing up. Bryan winning was the right call and a clever way to do it too with the suicide dive.

    Bounty Hunter (Show 2) -
    I liked the promo from Rude to kick things off and Heenan's commentary was great again. Bobby was even better in the Bryan segment and a great photo to go with it to truly capture what a weasel he's being. American Alpha vs Briscos would be a classic for the fans. Nice touch to involve Kharma with the Bellas. Also I liked Nikki's role in the Patterson/George match; I LOL'd at the 'like she wouldn't distract you' line. A cool stip that Patterson offered although I was a bit gutted to see it as I had planned that idea for my own show. (Dunno if I will go through with it now, I'll have to think about it). I liked Brock on the warpath in the main event and the turning over of the table. Brock came across like a true monster and the build here has been great.

    My 4th show was nearly 7,000 words. Twice the length of my 3rd. I shudder to think how long my PPV is going to be

    I usually have to split my PPV into 2 posts it's that long :o

    Necrominus: show 2 or 3 cant remember :pac:
    Heel Cena isn't new to the draft but you have done it exceedingly well imo and in many ways you gotta agree with his heel promo on Jeff. Interesting to see how you will build the WHC and Tag titles now that you have them suspended / with a no contact clause but im sure your IC tournie will fill some of the void next week. Kanes issues are intriguing also and had me very interested in where it would go PPV wise...of course Abyss, perfect...wait what! Boogeyman ha! that was unexpected for such a big storyline.

    beakerjoe: Show 1
    I feel like you've really polished your writing style this year and honestly wish I had read yours before mine and not just for the MNG/BWA mentions. Zeb with the Von Erichs seems like a good pairing... if it lasts. The model is a d!ck and I def wanna see how he gets his comeuppance but those are just the appetizers the main course is why honestly I have you as my current fav - You bring in Flair and make a big deal of it, you have a huge reveal with Nakamura as an elimination chamber begins, the to have a woo off before "The Four Horsemen" arrive and we get a (really fresh and different) Cesaro heel turn as he wins his first world title with the help of his buddies! Unexpected but damn good imo

    edit: forgot the Divas too, the match was made a big deal and therefore Sasha comes out of it looking great who could face her now.... Is Ronda just too mad to happen!? Meanwhle a Becky vs Del Ray feud has potential although after that I would wonder what is left for the others like Emma

    Sorry lads been offline for a few days. Hoping to have episode 2 up either today or Saturday. Shows 3 and 4 hopefully should follow soon after. Will try give some feedback over the weekend too

    Cheers for feedback. To be honest I did it to give the other storylines time to shine a little more, they had dominated the first 3 shows so pulling back a little once finalised seemed the right idea at the time!

    yeah I get you, it's the same reason I'm going for the full number of allowed build up shows (5) and spreading them out. Raw skip to the next PPV then 3 more Raws to build to my Mania Wrestlepalooza VI. I think with less shows itd almost be impossible to both allow the big feuds time to breath and properly build the 8 (I think) matches im going to have on my PPV (some for the pre-show though).

    Hope to have another BWA Raw up today (95% done) and I've got my go home show 85% written already too.

    Then it's time for
