    Dusty is one I really strongly considered last round, he ended up being my no.2 choice although I had assumed my top choice (after Kota/Omega which never would have dropped to me) would have been gone by my go so I was already considering Dusty vs Hogan or Dusty vs Batista. He is a great choice imo and was actually still my 2nd choice this round... hopefully my top choice comes through though.

    As mentioned the tag teams are great value especially with them going fast now. I've never had Enzo & Cass cos I guess they are relatively new but I'd imagine Enzo would be great to write for.

    Give I'm near the end of the next round, I'm going with Vince cause, as is my goal this year, he'll be a hoot to write, and I really want Mr Meekman in my stories :P


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


    Mr Meekman goes to Lord TSC again, as he did in 2014.

    New Day, Matt Hardy.... McMahon..... this all spells fun

    TBC really has a cracking roster


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


    Some great rosters developed as the results of two non stip rounds back to back. A reminder that the next round will be a stip round and it will be restrictive to a degree.

    Round six will be a stip round too and it will be the last restrictive stip round.

    I'll have my pick up soon just deciding between 2


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


    No.rush campo, in the same boat , some.decisions need time


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,364 ✭✭✭campo


    Pick up and decided to go with Lashley, while I felt there was much bigger names available Lashley fits my story line more in fact I would say a lot of my picks from here on in might surprise a few

    After much negotiations between the LWE and Christian, he decided not to return to the company after his stalker hell by owner Liz, still very traumatised and having a restraining order in place he heavily declined to return

    He was my top pick for this round, take good care of him Cheese, good roster so far with him plus Bret, Seth and Jeff Hardy


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    Great choice in getting Nigel McGuinness Liz. Your talent are definitely well able to deliver in the ring and on the mic. Nigel vs Austin would Im sure be a first time feud if thats the route you go.

    Ha probably a good idea but then again drunk picking duke the dumpster could be good too :D

    I had pmd the face that runs the place (BeakerJoe - guess cos he won last year he could also be the champ that runs the camp) my planned pick yesterday but I guess I'll be. Able to do that myself now today as we didn't go as fast as I'd expected.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    So I think its fair to say we have had our quietest 24 hrs thus far. The stip for Rd5 has me second guessing my choice for this round. Thankfully though the stip for Rd5 should be announced by the time I make my choice as Im #18 this Rd. There is still a few star names from previous drafts I am surprised havnt been taken yet.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,954 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Sorry for my lateness but i have made my pick and PM BeakerJoe


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,869 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    ".....often copied never equalled".

    Me-ow!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    Two of the better tag teams gone in quick succession. Arn & Tully the originals and Dash & Dawson their spiritual successors. Got to imagine both teams will play a big role in Reds and Joes plans.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,869 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    Was impressed by BH's roster before that pick but now he's my favourite for sure.

    A super pick. Ted is a wrestler that year in year out is placed in some perfect fueds and is a perennial in terms an entertaining character for the last ten years of the draft.

    tis a strong enough list of names alright but if im perfectly honest I only have set plans for 50% of my roster thus far.
    Hulk Hogan, Batista, Mr Perfect & Scott Hall, Ted Dibiase & Stan Hansen

    I personally would have Arn & tully above virtually any other Tag team going so it really shows how much stock is in people like The Revival atm that they go at the same time, not to mention the likes of Enzo/Cass etc that have gone already


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,594 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I'll have my pick up shortly. Some great picks so far.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,746 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    WGTT and American Alpha...noice! especially when added to Kurt Angle & Steamboat. MNG will have great wrestling thats for sure

    I love that pick by MNG. Team Angle vs American Alpha is the type of story this draft is made for. Well done MNG.


    Love the stips this round Joe. Not to limiting IMO and very fun with the four distinct sections.
