One of the reasons they are giving him a push is that he's just a great guy to be around backstage by all accounts. There's a reason Slater, Axel, Hawkins etc are kept around - they can work a match and are great guys backstage but unluckily for them just don't have the ''it'' factor. Jinder looked like he was in the same book but someone has rolled the dice with him. I desperately want his run to be a success because it means they may try it with other workers like that. Someone did the same with Breezango on the back of their stellar work as Chet and the Banker and its just so much fun to watch guys that deserve a push getting a bit of a run. I dream of the day they decide to call up the universally loved backstage Buddy Murphy and push him but I doubt very much it's ever going to happen. He'll just have to content himself with being the all-time punching above his weight champion.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tardelli Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Due to a personal emergency i can not be on time for the first round, so im gonna spoil my first pick and send a draft list to uncrewed.

Dr_Avalanche Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Would it be okay to sneak start the draft, not updating the clock until the time the draft is supposed to start? I can declare the overall #2 draft pick, as WWJ will draft Kazuchika Okada as our ace. I will probably not be awake to make my second pick, but I'll send a list to someone (Uncrewed? - Except we are likely in competition for similar talent?) when I go to bed.

Dr_Avalanche Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I can't see if Uncrewed has posted his company's product, but I can already tell we're going to go for basically the same wrestlers. I'm crossing off names right from the top of my draft sheet. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/mad.png.69834f23b9a8bf290d98375f56f1c794.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone wants that worldwide coverage feel free to send me a trade offer for coverage on the network (lets say a 30th rnd pick) - Fridays & Saturdays are taken as is every week 2 Sunday but the rest of the week is open. If you want tv deals you need to draft them or try to get one in game - which can be tough for start-up feds - so it all depends on your strategy as to whether being on the former WWE Network is worth it. Its subscription so your growth is slower than say Free to Air but it has worldwide coverage. There are always providers with better local coverage but they often have low patience/ low risk levels or stances against wrestling. If you are looking at growing your pop outside your home area then the WWAA might be a decent option for you. It's especially good if you're from the USA and okay if you're from Canada (Medium and Small coverage respectively). I figured I'd let you all know it was still an open option in case anyone felt like going that way coverage wise.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southside_hitmen Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Amazingly I have got almost everyone I could have hoped for given being 10th in the draft order. Jericho, Cena, Cesaro, Miz, Zayn, Hennigan, The WWE Network, Galloway, Stu Bennett (Wade Barrett), Braun Strowman, Colin Cassidy and Alexa Bliss. Some good talkers which is important for sports entertainment. A couple of really good in ring workers and some nice big men for the obligatory brawls and menace angles. A nice centrepiece for my Women's Division who finally has a genuine Australian connection ( a lucky, lucky man). I'm pretty happy. Wondering how everyone else feels now that the prime first 10 rounds have gone down? Pretty excited for my first 13 (as I'm sure others are for theirs). CM Punk Brock Lesnar Daniel Bryan Kevin Steen Dragon Lee II Conor McGregor Paul Heyman Sasha Banks Jim Ross La Sombra Ricochet Rey Mysterio Caristico I'm a total Punk mark being from Chicago, Lesnar, Bryan, KO for the heavyweights. Dragon Lee II, McGregor, La Sombra, Ricochet, Mysterio in the Liger role and Caristico for Juniors. And the Boss for the women's division. Add to that JR and Heyman on Commentary, and American Strong Style is alive and well. Need to flesh out tags and women's division, but the base is extremely solid, especially with Rock/Cena not in the US for national battles.

alpha2117 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 It's interesting to see how things are shaking out. Tardelli is very WWE like. Dr. A and Uncrewed are like NJPW split in two. Southside has a fed of ex indy darlings. Rockambition feels like an anglicized Lucha Underground. BeastMike, s feels like a hard edge smackdown. HRTV feeks like what a Japanese version of the WWE would. Juanster is a new age ECW. Destiny is a TNA WWE lovechild. As for me, it's the WWE if he had of pushed different people a few years back. It still has that style but it's skewing younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanster Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I'm glad with who I've chosen but there's still a lot more of the draft to come so I'm looking forward to see who's available and how this draft works out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanster Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Definitly trying for that old school ECW feel but I also want to capture or evolve on how I think ECW would have turned out if It hadn't folded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
