Tardelli Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Being alone for once is an awkward experience but fun. With 5 Rounds in, OLLIE has the Maineventers set up. Now onward with the Uppercarders.

Tardelli Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I believe you’re just drafting SOTBPW When youre alone in Mexico you take at first the "Big Dogs". All of them are in SOTBPW. If i wouldnt do that im just stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tardelli Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I really thought about Pablo Rodriguez as a pick for OLLIE since he is a Superstar and a possible Booker. Somehow i just dont like him, so i have to take a pass on him and let the wolves fight for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVEFAN95 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Woulda signed up for this had I been around but I am not so I didn't. Hopefully we get a few diaries from the created companies in the draft. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRTVAndrew Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 <p>A quick update on the state of the SSW roster: As I've said elsewhere, I didn't set out to be the "WIN ALL OF THE NATIONAL BATTLES" guy. I figured I'd get stuck with a low draft pick and wind up overdrafting the younger workers that aren't as popular as the bigger names.</p><p> </p><p> When I got the #1 pick, that strategy went out the window. Tommy Cornell was the only guy I could logically take given my "performance > popularity" model, and when I traded up from 21 to 18, Rocky Golden was surprisingly still available. Those two were a pretty strong 1-2 punch early on, and that allowed me to take Sammy Bach at 20, which was more of a curiosity pick for me (I've never actually booked him in a game).</p><p> </p><p> Add me to the list of people ticked off that New Wave and the Bumfholes went when they did. I was planning on taking one of those teams with my next two picks, but neither dropped. My backup plan after that was to form an unorthodox tag team of Brandon and Mikey James...except I momentarily didn't realize Brandon James was taken overnight, a few rounds before that. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/eek.png.0e09df00fa222c85760b9bc1700b5405.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Thankfully, Eddie Peak was a perfect substitute, since he can fill any role on a roster.</p><p> </p><p> I'm pretty happy with the guys I've gotten so far, including some of the younger workers (James, Stardust, and Cannonball in particular). I may have reached a bit for Peter Michaels, but nobody else jumped out at me in the 13th round, so I opted for the best announcer available. He may also wind up being my booker, depending on how the rest of the draft shakes out.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DatIsraeliGuy Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 <p>World of Wrestling:</p><p> </p><p> Based in Montréal, Québec, Canada, Victoria Stone-McFly and Alex DeColt's company may not have the biggest names, flashiest stars or best finance, but it has two things unlike any other roster in the world: A loaded Women's Division, and a bunch of young Canadian talent.</p><p> </p><p> The selling point of this company has to be the Women's Division, led by one of the best wrestlers, male or female, in the C-Verse - <strong>Alicia Strong</strong>, and followed by great talent such as <strong>Zoe Ammis</strong>, <strong>Sara Marie York</strong>, <strong>Amber Allen</strong> and more, they set to turn Canada ablaze with sound wrestling qualities and varrying styles.</p><p> </p><p> In addition, they host the always promising X-Division, made off of the likes of made names like <strong>Trent Shaffer</strong>, <strong>Jacob Jett</strong> and <strong>Benny Benson</strong>, but also young talent looking to make their mark like <strong>Kirk Jameson</strong>, <strong>Spencer Spade</strong> and <strong>Davis Wayne Newton</strong>.</p><p> </p><p> Add that to an already great top of the card - <strong>Ricky DeColt</strong>, <strong>Shooter Sean Deeley</strong>, <strong>Mighty Mo</strong> and the great <strong>Sean McFly</strong>, and you have a roster that puts the "Wrestling" in WOW.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
