    I honestly hadn't planned on taking this guy but he just ties a lot of things together...
    5 time WCW world champion

    longest reigning WWF champion of the 90s

    and just look at the below video to see the guys worth

    it is of course Kevin Nash!




    Nash is of course a founding member of the NWO too

    nwo-trio-645x370.jpg

    So now on the one roster I have Hogan, Hall & Nash plus other NWO members such as Ted Dibiase & Mr Perfect.

    I had not planned it but I guess the NWO may be heading to the BWA


    Hogan, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Ted Dibiase, Mr Perfect, Batista, Stan Hansen

    With recent draft picks in mind and a number of top tag teams having been drafted, NCW management feels it must act in a similar fashion. Given the stipulation in mind - there can only be one team fitting the calibre of star NCW requires.

    Allow me to present - NCW latest draft pick..... one of the most decorated tag teams of all time -

    Devon....

    CWA have called a press conference to announce their next signings, on the table we find the CWA GM Campo along with Bobby Lashley.

    Campo: Ladies & Gentleman let me hand you over to Bobby Lashley
    Lashley: In the last stip federations could only draft former IC Champions did they draft a member of the Hall Of Fame...No..You have to ask yourself WHY??
    In the whole draft how many people of my colour have been drafted....far too little.
    I myself am a world champion but did not get drafted till round 4...
    So I and my friends have had enough, we won't be treated this way any longer and with that said I am not only here to announce new arrivals to the CWA I am here to announce the reforming of Nation Of Domination..

    So we that said let me introduce to CWA NOD MEMBERS

    All of my picks up to now have been talent I've never used before, but I break with that theme for this pick because I feel he's just too good to ignore.

    While he is an icon of Hispanic wrestling he hails from the good ol' USA. Whereabouts? Well the area code is 6...1...9..

    That's right, Monday Night Grappling is proud to welcome back someone we feel will gel very nicely with our roster. The incomparable, the legendary...

    DM_7: Hey guys did you find another place to stay yet? You can’t stay here forever now you left Japan, It’s great that Kenny keeps the place clean and Kota knows his way around a broom but I really need my own space.

    Omega: Not yet boss.

    DM_7: Well can you at least head down to the PC and do some training? I would like to play FIFA but you guys keep playing Street Fighter and Final Fantasy, hogging the TV.

    Omega: We went earlier but it was closed up.

    DM_7: It can’t be closed up, I gave Cena the keys, he said he would be there all day.

    Omega: Well we couldn’t see him.

    DM_7: Go way outta that, get yer butts down there and do some training.

    Omega: Fine, what are you going to do?

    DM_7: Play Fifa with an old pal………...

    First of all, we are recruiting two men who tagged together in Japan as part of Tozawa-juku. The first man is someone who was original part of the CWC, but recently wrestled an NXT match in Tokyo. Please welcome one of the most underrated wrestlers in the world today, Akira Tozawa

    Akira_Tozawa_pro--2f8866a4efa97b5180e106e7fe04abb6.png


    And joining him is someone that should not be here. He should not be available in round 5, stip or no stip. We are over the moon to welcome back someone that was on our very first show. A man who has been behind some of the best matches in wrestling over the last decade.

    When he teamed with Tozawa he was known as a different name. He had the same name when we drafted him at first. But times have changed.



    ......







    .......


    Sami_Zayn_stat--3bcf2e5bca97b5bc48ec065e428d1f49.png

    (for those wondering, Tozawa-juku was a team these two tagged with in Dragon Gate during Generico tours in 2008 and 2009)

    1) Shinsuke Nakamura

    The next draftee to DPW is former WWE Intercontinental Champion..

    latest?cb=20131119160359

    Luke Harper

    He insisted on having his buddy along to help him out as back up should he need it in his pursuit of gold. So in order to sign Luke, I have also signed his former NXT Tag Team Champion and Wyatt Family Member, Erick Rowan, sheep mask and all.

    2724367d7f36f6e2b4b8311fea360c00_original-1441541579-800.jpg

    As if having Stardust and his oddness wasnt enough, Rowan and his Sheep mask just adds to weirdness knocking around in DPW. Lets hope it doesnt stop others from joining.

    Lord TSC
    Brian Regan -

    Round 6


    0TV.jpg

    YES, IT WOULDNT BE RIGHT IF LISA SIMPSON DIDNT GET HER KNICKERS IN A BUNCH OVER FEMALE EQUALITY!!! Lisa thinks the draft is sexually discriminating against the women by not including the Womens Championships as World Titles and is staging a sit-in with some feminists until she gets her way. I hate Lisa so I agree to get her to move on.

    So DM_7 made a shrewd move drafting Charlotte and Becky together, because the stip in this round will class any WWE womens title past or present as a World title. So The Divas Championship, The Womens Championship and both SD and Raws Womens titles are classed as world titles for this round only.

    BREAKING NEWS:

    Wheeler dealer Harry Redknapp has some huge news regarding a trade between Natural Championship Wrestling and Beyond Chaos Wrestling:

    Rumours were rife in the NCW camp that owner Necrominus was unhappy with his top draft pick Kevin Owens for some time now following this leaked photo to the media:

    Necrominus has now acted and NCW have come to terms with the release of Owens to BCW.

    In his place, comes someone who the NCW management feel can more than fill his place on the roster.....

    When I made my pick of Rey Mysterio in the last round there was one guy I dreamed of putting alongside him.

    Despite being just 23 years old he has already had a 5 star match, has taken Japan by storm and won the 2016 Best of the Super Juniors tournament, and he's even had Triple H describe him as "an amazing talent" in a recent interview with ESPN.

    He is of course...

    The first man was half of the main event of AEPW Easter Rising in a losing effort to AJ Styles in a Texas Death Match. He hails from the Red Hook Section of Brooklyn New York.
