Hey all, work was crappy the last week. I’ll be looking to get caught up in the next couple of days!

Yeah, that's how I landed on David, who is my least favorite Von Erich. Oh well. The others, I couldn't just name with champs out of the territory, and I didn't want to immediately have tournaments, so BAM! champs appeared out of thin air.

Uh, who knows, they just started out that way? I can make up dates. Also, David is the Texas Heavyweight Champion. He was just in tags this week to help set up Snuka and Orndorff.

I think it was MACW. There's a bunch of photos from there with him in Meltzer's Tributes book.

When I first started watching wrestling, Dino Bravo was the the first guy I figured out was just not good. He was working with the Warrior at the time. I've been prejudiced against him ever since, even having now seen earlier footage. Maybe you can change my mind with the 1981 version.

The only actual crossover that I can tell is San Antonio, in a different building and different night, so I don’t think it should become an issue.

I've found various results from Fritz trying to invade Blanchard's territory and try and fill the void left behind by the death of the Amarillo territory during this time. So I'll be adding that and running with two crews, east and west. Other than who is on which crew, I've no idea what I'm doing yet outside of my von Erich Program. I guess that's all that counts anyway.

I will be using the following titles: Texas Heavyweight Title, Texas Tag Team Titles, Texas Brass Knuckle Title.

OMG, my two first graders went back to the classroom for the first time in almost a year after Xmas and the house is so quiet now while I’m working I don’t know what to do. I can’t imagine trying to work on a Bachelor’s degree, much less a doctorate in that environment. And then you pulled this draft off. Bravo!

And Mr. Irrelevant will be Big Daddy Bundy, the future King Kong Bundy.

I already brought Orndorff to Texas, sorry.

Texas selects Ricky Morton and Bobby Eaton.

Texas selects David von Erich finally, and also Bugsy McGraw.

Texas selects Dick the Bruiser and Spike Huber.

If you want them after the draft, we can make it happen. I have no big plan for them.

Texas brings in Butch Miller and Luke Williams.

Texas signs Buck Robley and Brad Armstrong.

Texas signs Jerry Blackwell and Adrian Street.

Texas brings in its last manager, J.J. Dillon, and Ciclon Negro.

Texas selects manager Skandor Akbar and then Killer Tim Brooks.

Texas welcomes back Don Muraco and Mil Mascaras.

Texas welcomes Brian Blair and Kevin von Erich.

I’ll sign Paul Orndorff and Jimmy Snuka.

Texas welcomes back Rick Martel and Tito Santana to the area for #16 and #17.
