El Boricua

It's a fun looking roster, but we're only three picks in.

Embry's a favorite and I look forward to his adventures in Portland.

It's a bit dicey just having your top title vacated for no reason.

Thanks Stu, but WWA is Dick the Bruiser in Indianapolis. By the way, you are welcome in Puerto Rico anytime.

Considering what the state of the WWA roster was when you made your save pick, these are two huge building blocks.

Don't know. Jumbo did work three shows in the U.S. in June according to WrestlingData.

Is AJ and NJ on tour on July 1st? New Japan started a tour on 7/1/83 Abdullah the Butcher Adrian Adonis Brian Blair Dick Murdoch Tiger Chung Lee Paul Orndorff (7/22 - 8/4) All-Japan started a tour on 7/8/83 Alexis Smirnoff Gypsy Joe Jerry Oates Terry Funk Nick Bockwinkel Gerry Morrow Tiger Jeet Singh So no Abdullah until August? Oh well. At least I'm not Central States who has to go without Bockwinkel.

I'm running Superstars tapings there. Ambitious, I know. That is ambitious. So you're running weekly tapings? That's even more ambitious

Good to see the potential war over Maple Leaf Gardens be resolved in a peaceful manner. There's always the Capital Center if WWF needs a fourth arena to run.

Yeah, I kept going over the wrestler list and though there are some better options (in a vacuum), Pedro was the best 'fit' for what I was looking for. I probably could have got him later but I wanted certainty for the top of my cards. And getting the most accomplished Puerto Rican wrestler makes sense for WWC.

WWC selects the pride of Culebra, Puerto Rico as our second pick. Welcome Pedro Morales. Boon is up next.

Don't worry, it's understandable given your schedule. You've got a nice roster shaping up.

Maybe it would help if we knew what time zones we were in. I'm Atlantic, although with Daylight Savings Time that means it's currently the same time as Eastern (without DST I'd be one hour ahead of Eastern).

Wow Parv, that's an impressive list of gets. Now you just got to keep the dates straight and don't forget to take into account any Japan dates.

Puerto Rico Owner: Victor Jovica Announcers: Joaquin Padín, hijo (Spanish language announcer), Rickin Sanchez (show host/producer), Eliud Gonzalez (ring announcer), Hugo Savinovich (English language announcer) Referees: Tomas Marín "El Martillo", Ricky Vargas Benitez, Victor Quiñones Wrestlers: Carlos Colon Sgt. Slaughter

True, but if we assume that the previous vote was on 1/1/83, then the next one is due on 7/1/83.

I saw we plan to have Race drop the title at Starrcade to somebody (Flair, DiBiase or Greg Valentine) I thought the vote was every six months? That puts the vote to drop or not and then who to drop to at 1/1/84(15) Then we would have to hold a vote at the beginning of July as the first one, then hold the next one in six months.

Especially since he lost the Fabs earlier in the draft.

Works for me, my house shows run on the weekends. So I guess me and Boricua have to discuss Andre dates so we both don't want him at the same time. Sure, let's hash it out over PM.

Works for me, my house shows run on the weekends.

Do we negotiate here or work it out via PM and then post the agreed upon dates?

If I had been looking for a face as my first pick, Windham and Magnum would have been on my short list. I'm getting excited about the potential match-ups we'll be getting from our ""universe" already.

I'd happily do either one MSG loop + a TV appearance (4 dates on Slaughter for 3 dates on Andre) or a special deal of MSG loop + Philly loop + 1 tv appearance (7 dates on Slaughter for 7 dates on Andre). We could work out when both guys can fly to and from Puerto Rico. As in, you don't have to use all the dates on Andre at once and just because I'm using Slaughter doesn't mean he couldn't fly back and work a date for you between the house shows. Let me know what you're happy with. Great! I'll take the second option with the seven dates. I definitely wouldn't use the dates on Andre all at once. We can work out the dates later after the draft, but I already have a couple in mind.

Parv, do you need Slaughter to finish out any programs? If you do, I'll let you use him to finish up in exchange for some dates on Andre. Let me know.

Do we need a separate thread for the NWA World champion or the other freelancers?
