Aw crap, there goes the #3 tag team on my list. #2 is still on the board but I doubt for much longer.

WWF- February '94 World Champion-Yokozuna Intercontinental Champion- Razor Ramon Tag Team Champions- The Quebecers Women's Champion-Alundra Blayze WCW- June '94 (I started watching shortly before Clash of The Champions XXVIII) World Champion- Ric Flair International World Champion- Sting U.S Champion- Steve Austin Tag Team Champions- Cactus Jack and Kevin Sullivan Television Champion- Larry Zbysko ECW- December '99 World Champion- Mike Awesome Television Champion- Rob Van Dam Tag Team Champions- Tommy Dreamer and Raven

I pretty much have the same strategy as Diamondust does. I have 3-4 people in mind with each pick and a particular niche I'm trying to fill. I modify that list when one of them comes off the draftboard. Honestly, there's only been one pick that really upset me and that was Anderson and Blanchard. I really wanted the Horsemen and I was banking on them falling to me in the third round. But "Superstar" Graham was a great back up choice. I really thought he was a steal in the third round. For my money, he was a borderline first rounder so it all worked out for me fairly well.

That was supposed to happen in WCW in the Summer of '99 and that's what the vignettes of Hak and Raven hanging out at Raven's house were slowly building up to. Of course, it being WCW, nothing ever came of it. Great picks as well there, Brooklyn Zoo. I'm kind of shock that Brody hadn't been picked so far. He kind of slipped my mind. RVD was one of the guys I was downright flabbergasted as to why he hadn't been picked yet with this draft's love of current and semi-current guys. I was mildly tempted to pick up Sabu and RVD as a tag team but I figured everyone would get pissed at me and they wouldn't really fit what I'm going for. I've got to say there have only been two or three picks in this draft that I've outright disagreed with thus far. Great selections for the most part by all of you.

Good pick there, Hawk. And one that was completely off my radar (huzzah!) I'm really interested to see where you're going.

Man oh man oh man oh man. I kind of regret not picking a tag team with my third pick. I don't regret taking "Superstar" Billy Graham but it seems like all of the great tag teams are flying off the board. My #2 tag team choice is still on the board but I'll be lucky if they fall all the way down to me.

My third pick is a guy I'm truly shocked hasn't been picked yet. I was going to go in another direction but I realized I couldn't pass him up. This is a man that was ten years ahead of his time but in his own time, was a bonafide superstar. He planted the seeds of the Rock 'N' Wrestling era and was truly one of a kind. He is the man of the hour, too sweet to be sour. A former CWA World Champion, two time NWA Florida Heavyweight Champion, and former WWWF World Champion. He helped pave the way for the likes of Scott Steiner, Hulk Hogan, and John Cena to name just a few. For the 40th pick in the All Time Wrestling Roster Draft, I select... "Superstar" Billy Graham

Hell I haven't seen anybody else that made a half lemonade-half ice tea drink. Off topic, but there's a new (to me) Arnold Palmer half-lemonade-half ice green tea that is equally is good as the original.

Thanks

I have two really good backup plans, hopefully they both aren't snatched up by Drury and Garth.

Fuck fuck fuck fuckity fuck fuck fuck

Didn't WCW do a million dollar giveaway in '99ish? Just saying...

I like the latter rule but some things like are too much for me to not to pontificate aloud about.

I'll put this in spoiler tags so you won't have to read it if you don't want to since it's discussing someone who hasn't been picked yet. So don't read it if you don't want name dropping! BUT I'm incredibly curious as to

Hmm, bit surprised at that selection. Not a bad choice by any stretch of the imagination (in fact he was on my shortlist) just not what I thought you would be going for.

He's got two hours and sixteen minutes...

This twelve hour rule is killing me. This draft will last months!

I never really thought about it but a Dusty Vs Rock feud would be pretty incredible. Excellent pick there, Garth. I'm surprised Dusty lasted so long.

Well I hate to keep up with the 80s-on streak but given my lack of knowledge of pre '85 stuff, I kind of have to... Anyways after much consideration, I've decided to pick a wrestler with more wasted potential than possibly anybody in the history of the industry. This man could have been truly one of all of the all time greats and a surefire first rounder in this draft. However, what we ended up with was one of the all time pretty damn goods and a man I feel perfectly confident picking as my second choice. Though his drug problems ended his career and his life all too prematurely, he was one of the greats of the '80s. A former NWA World Champion, WWF Intercontinental Champion, and a Modern Day Warrior. For the 33rd pick in the All Time Wrestling Roster Draft, I select Kerry Von Erich

I know...this thing is going to last for weeks perhaps even months. It'll be interesting to see the later rounds of this draft. "For my 28th pick, I select former WCW superstar, Rick Fuller..."

Finally Warrior gets picked. He gets shit on a lot by the IWC and was a mediocre wrestler at best but he certainly had the "it" factor even during his terrible WCW run.

Listen if Roadblock is still around for some reason in the 3rd round, I'm going to take him!

Damn you Diamonddust. I have three other backup choices for my second choices but of the four guys, Harley was tops. Damn you! Ah well. Only two more picks.
