Now before the round 7 stip is revealed, just a reminder to you all that the 1970 rule has been abolished, and both TNA and IWGP titles are also not viewed as world titles. Now, its time for round 7......
ROUND 7
Everyone likes a game show, even those in Springfield and especially Homer. Homer has spent most of today ingoring his kids while watching Wheel of Fortune, so for this round Homer wants you to Spin the Wheel and get lucky! IM ON MY WAY!
So what the hell does that mean for the 2017 draft? Last years Draft runner, Bounty Hunter, had great success with the jobber round in which when you choose your own pick, you also selected a number that corrosponded with a selection of enhancement talent. Tom Zenk, Fake Sting and Barry Horowitz all came in and helped beef up the rosters by making the other talent look better.
This year, we take that idea and expand on it. Instead of jobbers, we have 80 members of the wrestling world on offer for you to choose as a bonus to your pick. The talent on offer range from super jobbers, to lower card wrestlers, to commentators, managers and valets. Even some Tag Teams are available. All of the men/women available have been rarely drafted over the 10 years of the draft and in most cases they havent been drafted at all. So theres no one on offer that I would consider brilliant, but they may add to your roster in some way as the jobbers did last year
Firstly you make your pick as normal, with normal rules applying as per usual (including the rules/titles abolished previously.) Now once you make your pick, you may also select a a number from 1-20 and a letter from A-D (eg. 20B, ....OR maybe 3A.)
EG : Campo selects Bray Wyatt and he also lets me know hes picking 14D. After he has selected hid code, the bonus pick will be revealed and added to his roster.
Any questions? Just ask.Heres the round order for round 7:
1, Slickric
2. MNG
3. Bounty Hunter
4. Campo
5. Paulie21
6. Furious Red
7. Shagnasti

Easy pick for me.
The King of Memphis. As believable a performer as you'll ever see in the wrestling business. Don't pay attention to the watered down version he's become. He was as hard hitting, as real and box office in his day as you'll see.

The word legend is tossed around very easily in wrestling, but in my next pick's case it's more than appropriate.
He's a man who can wrestle a variety of styles, is an outstanding talker, with one of the greatest minds the business has ever seen that allowed him to become a huge success in his native USA, as well as Japan.
He makes his debut in Monday Night Grappling. He is...
...Terry Funk!Wrestling Observer Newsletter
5 Star Match (1984) with Dory Funk, Jr. vs. Bruiser Brody and Stan Hansen on December 8
5 Star Match (1989) vs. Ric Flair on November 15
Best Brawler (1989)
Best Heel (1989)
Best on Interviews (1989)
Feud of the Year (1989) vs. Ric Flair
Wrestling Observer Newsletter Hall of Fame (Class of 1996)
A great value pick at any time, but especially Round 7.
Monday Night Grappling roster thus far:
1. Kurt Angle
2. Chad Gable and Jason Jordan - American Alpha
3. Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat
4. Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin - World's Greatest Tag Team
5. Rey Mysterio
6. Will Ospreay
7. Terry Funk
And as for the gift pick, I will go with 3D.0 -

I considered Funk and there is a big name pick still available that I almost took in both of the last 2 rounds but im going to change tact now and go for perhaps a smaller name value pick but If I was the Dude and my pick was a rug and my promotion was my room i'd say the pick I will go with instead really ties the room togetherI Draft... The New US Express
This team consists of Mike Rotunda aka IRS who obviously teamed with Dibiase (drafted to the BWA in rd4) as part of Money Inc and was also a member of the NWO (also in the BWA this year) and later NWO Japan
Thw other half of that team is Dan Spivey (or as I'll use him Waylon Mercy) teamed with not only IRS in the past but also Stan Hansen & Scott Hall (already on this years BWA roster) and actually beat world champion Diesel (also dalready drafted) by countout in his last match in the WWF.
Bray Wyatt's daddy and the man who inspired the Wyatt character together joining the BWA
Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall & Kevin Nash, Andre The Giant, Ted Dibiase & IRS, Mr Perfect, Batista, Stan Hansen, Dan "Waylon Mercy" Spivey
and why not get 1A out of the way0 -
