The Initial Draft!
Giant Baba looks around and then steps up to make the announcement of his next signing... he is known world wide... he is The Ultimo Dragon! ECWA has got two picks coming, one from the last round and one from before me. WCW is up next in line but I am pretty sure he's asleep since he sent me the proxy for his last pick so we may be done for the evening. Left should have a fun morning waking up and seeing how everything went down with the WWF.

At this point ecwa still has a pick from the last round. In round 6 uwfi is up with wwf on deck but I think we should figure out business with wwf before jumping ahead too far.

Do the guys he drafted get released then? Does he bring them with?

I will admit some sadness to see Dr. Death go but I think that the direction I am going he may get lost i the shuffle so I was also happy to see him go so I wouldn't be faced with that booking decision.

I don't know much about Yoshinari Ogawa but everything I am seeing and reading, he looks to be a pretty good hand.

I like that pick up if Konnan for sure. He is a good hand around this time with the right people.

He will probably break his first opponent's leg out of spite...

Exactly. It is all about how you use em that counts. Hansen was a stud in AJPW so he will continue to be that.

I'm just mentioning that all you do is criticize everyone else's moves, but when someone does it back to you, you get all defensive. I love my pick of Austin there and he will be a major player long after Hansen has been retired. I think you either don't remember his run in WCW in the Hollywood Blondes and his singles work there when he was a top 10 worker in the US. Injury and politics (Hogan and friends) derailed Austin there and he won't have that problem in the WWF. As much as I LOVE Hansen, see my name), Hansen is a 8th-12th round pick due to his age. You use the fact that he WAS a legend in Japan as your reasoning for the pick. I'm using the same reasoning in reverse with Austin. He became a major player in the US within 12-18 months after going to Vince. However after thinking about it, I apologize for hurting your feelings. You run your WWF the way you imagine it and I will run All Japan the way I do. Good luck.

So wait, your argument highlights the point I made earlier when I called out that you would pick Austn and you are subsequently pointing out that your going to push him when in reality he was a year away from it. Not to mention the guy that got him over, Bret Hart, you skipped out on... I dare say Stan Hansen, in the twilight of his career (I mean 4-5 years really), has a little more in the tank for the time that this game will be going that Steve Austin at this point in his career as he doesn't have the momentum and the time in ECW to actually hit the "IT" factor that caused him to get over as well as he did. We all know he had it in him the entire time, but in reality it was his short run in ECW that isn't going to happen, and a great series with Bret Hart, than isn't going to happen, that really made him get over... so you have thus killed any sense of realistic feel to the development of someone like him and you haven't even booked a match yet.
