Pick up and PM sent. Hope Kolido is happy I reunited the Brood.

Could have taken a partner with Helms but I have a specific role designed for him.

I'll have my pick up shortly.

Update: Pick made and PM sent. Happy to finish off my fifth and final tag pick with them.

Thanks for Sasha MNG. I was thrown initially as she doesn't really fit in with my plans but I've already managed to come up with a couple of possible routes to go with her. Could work out well. I've a stacked female roster now anyway!

Before this round started, had a feeling you would get me either x pac or gangrel, they were on my list of potentail signings, well happy with that pick, cheers Necro.

Hey Necro hope that pick is alright. Think her and Chyna would be an interesting pairing as a team or against each other

Hey,

I've checked and doubled checked. Am I right in saying Alexa Bliss is yet undrafted?

Didn't plan on Nigel but he can probably fill the role I had in mind for Shieky

Hope Al is happy with Paige though. Top women with a different character than most and storyline potential as a result, could always hang around with bulldog too if you want British stable too for example.

Paige was my next pick so thanks man :pac::pac:

I hope you're happy with getting Suzuki for realsies this time Shag

Was totally puzzled that Alexa Bliss hadn't gone considering the amount of females that have now been selected. Hopefully it's someone you can work with Paulie.

I'm sure you'll all agree this really is the tough part of the draft. Picking the main event scene is a doddle. Getting down to the nitty gritty, shaping your whole fed. So many wrestlers you have listed seem to drop extra fast in these rounds.

I had a feeling you would pick up on that. Thanks a million. It's like I threw my rattle out the pram last night and you just handed it back.

Sorry Beaker. I'm happy to land Velveteen Dream but I'm probably only 75% sure what I've planned for him so he may be up for trade. Since day one I thought him V Goldust could be great but I think I've gone off that idea.

Getting a serious bang of NXT off my fed.

You can always trade him. I had a great little plan for him, really high on him. Was hoping with him not on The takeover this weekend people might miss him. Ah well back to the drawing board

It's a bad round to have a late pick. Double the amount af talent going off the board each pick.

It's definitely harder picking for someone else.

Sorry Slick if its not what you want. Would have given you AJ Lee if she wasnt picked earlier. No obvious connections to your roster that i could think of

This round is tough on my list of options. Between relaxing the world champion rule to people gettting their gifts, anarchy!

No you're good! I would've definitely picked him in later rounds.

And AJ would've been picked by me this round, if she hadn't been nicked right before me.

could be worse, you could have just announced on thread that your out of tag picks and will just be going for singles guys when Beaker announced this stip and the fact that 20 extra singles stars (cos they can't pick tag picks) would be going this round on top of the usual.

ho hum nothing can be done tho.

Ha nice pick for your friend Walt, I came very close to picking Sheiky & Volkoff when I went for Bockwinkel instead

Necro

I need.... TWO picks to start writing. I'm 90 per cent certain I'll get both, but holding off until I get them both before committing pen to paper (or text to google docs, whatevs :P)

Ok have my pick, now onto Walt........

Should I go with someone whos associated with someone on his roster, or someone who would fit his roster, someone I think he'd like to draft.,.,,,


Im leaning towards the latter

Hope Walt is pleased. I loved writing for Magnum and I think he fits in well with Tully Arn and the Freebirds

Finally someone picked Hussan. Finally. The temptation can now disappear entirely to fall back into old ways

Great character to write for, had a lot of fun the last two years.

Hassan didn't fit my roster or plans or he'd have been gone ages ago.

Superb draft pick and a heat magnet.

Agreed. Initial plans were a continuation of the last two years of my NCW storylines involving Hussan but I went in... another direction as is apparent

beakerjoe

Ive no plans with Hussan but i love his character. He will fit teh narrative I have for my roster easily, but how to get the best out of him is the next question

I hope Eddie is ok for you Joe he usually gets picked with Davey as tag team, is this the first year he has gone on his own?

I was expecting a low draw in the next average order round, draft gods have been kind this year... luckily I don't need a celebrity... although... should the right one come up...

With the round averages working out at between 9 and 11.5, no one has had an alltogether shocking draw or too kind bar maybe Kolido. Its working out well

Also id love a celeb. Have an idea but doubt they will go un drafted

Necro

Yeah I'd definitely draft a certain type of celeb if they were available... highly doubtful though so I'll more than likely complete out the guys I need to begin writing.

Guys, a quick question, is it mandatory to have a female division on your roster, I've yet to draft any?

Nope. I had none in my first year at all.

Edit: And I was considering doing the same this year if Chyna went tbh.

Not at all, its up to you.

Also its not mandatory to draft a celeb. All optional.

Also if Lord TSC is reading, please pick a number for the rumble sweep .... the round order of round 11 will be determined by it.

Though i may push this to round 12 if we move at a faster pace and reach round 11 before sunday

Delighted to pick up Devlin. Feel he will fit in perfectly with my roster of (mostly) junior heavyweights.

Also hope Liz is happy with Petey. He is somebody I strongly considered for my own roster.

Looking at the draw it has been very kind to everyone thus far. Nobody has landed a stinker.

I had a celeb in mind but given that I'm first pick of the round I really have to pick "himself" now.

I'm glad I'm further down the celeb round tbh. There's two or three I'd feel I have to choose if I had a good pick. I'd be very hopeful of grabbing who I want in the celeb round now.

:pac::pac: I had the same problem last year. Great fun to write for but the fear is 'himself' can overshadow other things a little.
