alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 <p>Now the bit I hate - Russell, Kijar and Tardelli aren't here so the next 6 picks could take anywhere between 6 minutes to 6 hours depending on if they have left lists/ turn up or not.</p><p> </p><p> I am not a patient man!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Avalanche Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'm hitting the bed in a few minutes. I'll send you a pick list, alpha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 So Conor McGregor and CM Punk - I don't really like MMA but that's the way the wind is blowing in the WWA America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncrewed Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'm heading off for the night, here is my shortlist: 1) Alberto El Patron 2) La Sombra 3) Rey Mysterio 4) Penta El Zero M 5) Mascara Dorada 6) Caristico 7) Fenix 8) Johnny Mundo 9) Psycho Clown 10) Atlantis I should be able to make my next pick, though.

southside_hitmen Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 4 picks in the books for me so far: Kazuchika Okada Shinsuke Nakamura Kenny Omega Tetsuya Naito I was hoping to get 2 of the above (Tanahashi/AJ were also in the mix), pretty good start. All 4 can go and can pop a big angle, so my vision of a Japanese NXT style product is off and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 4 can go and can pop a big angle, so my vision of a Japanese NXT style product is off and running. Weirdly if you had of gone Mexico or the US I wa probably doing Japan and those 4 were 1,2,3 and 5 on my list with TANAHASHI 4th (only because of his age and condition). So in an alternate universe not a lot would have changed if WWA Japan had existed. I had discounted AJ because I figured he wasn't lasting to the 2nd round.

So in an alternate universe not a lot would have changed if WWA Japan had existed. I had discounted AJ because I figured he wasn't lasting to the 2nd round. Same. I absolutely assumed he would be gone by #4 overall, so I almost pulled the trigger on it in round 1. I had to go with my head though and Okada's 92 pop in Japan. I thought for sure given recent events Omega would be gone too by round 2 and then it was just a matter of who Larrikn picked on who would be leftover. Getting 4 of my top 6 is just great though. I LOVE the McGregor/Punk picks from you. McGregor's pop is great to start and being from Chicago, I'm a total Punk fan-boy and I took him in the 1st when running an American promotion last draft. He usually ends up as wrestler of the year in my sims of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I went with McGregor because he's 28 and I figured that's a good long term investment and once it came round to the next round a Punk/McGregor program is simply too tempting not to book. It's set me on a very different path than what I intended but that might be fun too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemanwba Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Anyone able to tell me the rules on drafting Tag Teams? Was hoping I could pick up both members of the Sumerian Death Squad but I've only got Tommy End Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 You draft them as individuals - you can always try to trade with whoever has the other 1/2. One of the advantages of drafting 1 or 10 is you get the opportunity to secure tag teams with consecutive picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok, ive done other drafts before where you can take Tears depending on how many titles they've won, or how long they've been teaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 So yeah - I got Brock in rnd 3. It's all MMA all the time in the WWA America! Lots of blokes having a bit of a cuddle on the ground whilst hitting each other .... that's entertainment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larrikn Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Really disappointed I wasn't able to pick up Nak as I wanted to make him good again, but Shibata and Marufuji arnt bad picks. Maru is a god in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tardelli Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 <p>Okay the 4 first drafts went pretty good.

mikemanwba Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Can't confirm but when talking to NoLegs last night I think he wanted Scurll and Sabre Jr as 2 and 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Avalanche Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Small adjustment - Ringside Stories is going to be the name of our tv show, not the promotion as such. It will instead be called GWWA - the Global Women's Wrestling Association. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpha2117 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 You can always just post the list in this thread - in general other than southside nobody is looking at drafting your guys so it's not like you are tipping anyone off on a hidden gem or anything.
