1983 Draft Thread
I don't like the idea of passing someone, but I'm not going to be up by nine which is when I'll need to make my pick if I don't want to get passed myself. So with that said, Don Owen Sports is proud to announce that the latest member of the Pacific Northwest Wrestling roster is he master of the double punch, Rufus R. Jones!!!!!!

Samu was gonna be my next pick. So now I have to take a guy I was trying to leave open to his home promotion. Oh well.

If you haven't liked the Scenic City Invitational page, I'd appreciate it if you did. I'm not involved in the promotion of the show (well, not officially anyway), but I really want it to succeed as it is a first of it's kind type of event. I'm going to start reviewing a match from each participant in the next few days. If the likes on the facebook page get up to 450, the promoter will announce the next entrant. https://www.facebook.com/ScenicCityInvitational?fref=ts

Is that Wahoo's pick I take it?

Tomorrow is Saturday which I think will almost certainly move quick. By the time tomorrows over I doubt people will even give a shit who they draft given the scraps that will be left

The irony of the five hour rule meaning nothing at all at the end of the day is pretty rich.

I tried to contact Parv. I would really hate for him to get passed over on back to back picks.

Matt D's role in this has been worrisome to say the least.

We'll talk. Tell me Parv's double pick didn't coincide with the period of time where he actually sleeps.

It probably was unlikely but after Mad Dog Lefebvre went three rounds before I thought he would I'm not willing to take risks like that anymore.

I had no real need for him. I thought about drafting him and putting him in the role that Sierra/Assassin was in as The Nightmare, but it's really not a necessary role. I still came very close to taking him and probably would have but I was paranoid someone was going to get at Two Eagles before I could.

Ted Allen is an excellent utility pick at this point. I came very close to taking him with both of my last two picks

I cannot believe my luck in these later rounds. Every time I think "the guys I really want are all going to start falling now" a bunch of people make picks who aren't on my radar at all. Keep it up people!

If it makes you feel any better Beast I picked by far the best worker left on the board to no discussion.

Don Owen will take a seat at the NWA table for now, though there could be issues on the horizon that will lead to problems.

There is honestly no one left where I would be crushed if I didn't get them. There absolutely is one person left I really want, but they are not totally essential to my promotion, and in fact they are going to be kind of hard to plug in. And that person is certainly not the person you are interested in.

You can send me a message. Not positive I'll be at six, but I might be and it's not like I can pick before you.

I contacted him over an hour ago to see if he wanted me to proxy for him and didn't hear back

If this was a draft in 86 I would have taken The Invaders myself two or three rounds ago if not sooner.

I'm guessing dkooky is sleeping, so goc will be able to lap him if he's willing to stay up all night.

The benefits of running a promotion as unique as WWC - you can take a great act like The Invaders this deep in the draft. The negatives of running a promotion as unique as WWC - Dylan might be eyeballing one or two guys left on your draft board!

I have to say that the pieces of my puzzle have all fallen into place after despite some serious scares. I have two more solid targets, but still over thirty names I have interest in in some capacity. What that means is that I will almost certainly get picks I really want through the 14th - and possibly 15th round. At that point I won't even care how the rest of the roster fills out so this is great.

Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
I maybe could have waited another round to grab Morrow, but most of the guys I want haven't been going with these recent picks, so I feel okay. I would say I will probably get two more guys I really want, and I can't complain about that.
