There was a lot of talent to try and weed through... I am still wondering why you haven't done Precious vs Sunshine

I believe I have got the front page updated. We should be able to cruise through this... I think I have it planned out where those of us who saved can go up to 21 but the others can go up to 31

We have not open up our world to England yet. That may be something we look at once week settling on North America outside of Canada that is. So no William Regal is not available.

Hickerson is back in June Gary Young isn't back till 85.

I guess you could inherit him as a figure head. That would be an interesting turn of the tide lol.

ah ok. I didn't realize that. it was just weird and popped out to me. When I started, I offered to just have Gino and Houston and then work from there but he was inactive. He is one of my all time favorites and a guy who could literally control the tide of a company and carry it if he hadn't fallen to drugs. Just too bad.

Yep, he was out of the business for a year, possibly doing work on Farrah Fawcett... He returns in May.

Can anyone confirm if the Sheik retired in 1984? I've been looking everywhere and he is barely active from 1984 - 1991. Should we still use him as a freelancer?

Okay guys, I consider my self a pro wrestling connoisseur, but it is safe to say that debut dates are not my forte. Through some basic research I have come up with this list... we will utilize this list for the fresh face and "return" drafts as we have some guys coming back into the business in 1984. Here is the list. PLEASE... help finding out other people who debuted in 1984 and 1985. I have a base line list here to go from, so if we can do some more research and find people, it will help our cause for those fresh face drafts and what we can do with them. 1984 January Tommy Heggie John Quinn The Spoiler David Morgan Lou Winston February Italian Stallion Tom Zenk New Guinea Man Eater aka Botswana Beast, Kamala II Billy White Cloud Thomas Ivy David Johnson Wendell Cooley David Haskins Manuel Villalobos Johnny Rapone Mickey Doyle Jay York Rick Renslow March Jushin Liger April May Gino Hernandez Pat Tanaka Steve Simpson June Phil Hickerson Kendall Windham Nikita Koloff Woman July August Steve Armstrong Baby Doll September Tracey Smothers October Great Muta Masa Chono Scott Hall Shawn Michaels Dan Spivey Jim Powers November December Paul Roma 1985 January John Nord Nick Kiniski February Lance Von Erich Paul Diamond March April Bart Sawyer May June Mick Foley July August Bam Bam Bigelow Miss Elizabeth September Yokozuna Brady Boone Tom Brandi October Lex Luger November Chris Benoit The Ultimate Warrior Luna Vachon Sting December Missy Hyatt Please post any other people with whom you think started out around these times so that we can add them to the lists whether they are big names or not so we can put these drafts together.

Please click on the links and check specific dates for your guys if they are gone, especially if it says they are partial. I think it is safe to say that we would give these guys a travel day before and a travel day after given the flights from Japan.

Mid South is going to go with Rex and Spot.

I will update that in the coming days. I have a link out there but I want to make it more clear for everyone. I am also working on the fresh face list which I am going to post for us to edit and change so we know who is coming out when. All those things will be updated tonight hopefully.

Owen Hart turning on Bret. It was done so well and Owen cut some amazing promos to put it over and make it realist that he was a jealous young brother who was looking to step out of the shadow and show he was better.

Boris Zuhkov to Mid South

All set.

Well the only thing to remember is that once you're done you only have those people that you kept in the people that you drafted. Once the draft is completed than anybody who was not drafted from your unprotected list will come back to you so you can utilize the pics after the 10th round 2 pickup enhancement talent. I think that after around 10 we will go to a 12 hour window just to speed things up so that we can hopefully be done with this by Sunday. How does that sound to everyone?

I think we are at a point in the draft now where we will start to see some of those extra pieces come into play and people are going to start filling out their rosters with their enhancement and lower card talent. I know that I have roughly 20 people on my roster right now as active wrestlers so I only have 16 more spots to fill and put some extra pieces into place

Awa is up. Let's try and get through the 10th round today. Keep doing work!

Mid South Wrestling is coming to you from Lakefront Arena in New Orleans, Louisiana on Fox and its affiliates Fox 8 out of New Orleans, KLRT 16 out of Little Rock, WXXV 25 out of Jackson, KOKH 25 out of Oklahoma City, and KRIV 26 out of Houston. {Mid South Wrestling opens with highlights of all the top stars of Mid South Wrestling. We then cut to the Jim Ross standing by!} Jim Ross: WELCOME EVERYONE TO MID SOUTH WRESTLING! I am Jim Ross and Ladies and gentlemen here tonight we have got a great card including an announcement that will without a doubt shock the world of wrestling! I am by myself here tonight as Bill Watts has been in meetings throughout the week and still today. We are hoping to hear more from him this evening about a big situation regarding the National Wrestling Alliance. I want to let you fans know that we have got some great action planned this evening and without a doubt, we will see fists of fire as tonight, the Masked Superstar and Don Muraco are going to team up against Wrestling II and ThunderBolt Patterson. Last week we saw the Fantastics eliminate the Blackjacks, but tonight they are in six-man action with Wahoo McDaniel taking on the Blackjacks and Ted Dibiase. Plus tonight we will see the return of the Junkyard Dog but right now, they are perhaps the most dangerous team in all of professional wrestling and they are the Mid South Tag Team Champions, fans here are the Wild Samoans! Ken Raper & Pete Sanchez vs The Wild Samoans -The Wild Samoans come in and rip these two guys limb from limb here. The crowd isn’t sure how to handle the Samoans as Raper and Sanchez are just destroyed in the middle of the ring. This one is over before it really gets going when Afa and Sika hit a pair of bodyslams. Afa then throws Sika to the ropes and picks him up for a spinebuster but falls backwards and crushes Sanchez for the 1…2…3!! The Samoans will defend the titles on the 17th against the Fantastics who are going to be in action later on this evening… Ross puts them over in a big way…. *COMMERCIAL* -MSW returns with Ross putting over the recent events of Mid South Wrestling and the big double night showcase from Houston on the 16th and 17th of December. He says that Mid South will be off the road for the holidays but says that they will be back in January touring all over the Mid South Territory and will even be exploring new areas of Texas. Jim Ross says that the December 21st and 28th editions of Mid South Wrestling will be special edition episodes highlighting the stars of Mid South and some of the best matches from the fall. Ross then begins to lead into the next contest… El Bracero vs Mad Dog Boyd ­­­-A great little showcase for Bracero who is really catching fire with the Mid South crowd. The fans are solidly behind him as he hits a nice flying cross body for the 1….2…3! Bracero works the crowd but we hear something from the back… wait a moment… it is Superstar Billy Graham! ­-Jim Ross is going nuts putting this over and says that tonight is the night that Superstar was going to reveal what he’s been talking about. Superstar has got someone following him and he’s got a cloak over his body. Superstar gets into the ring and begins to put this man over one more time but then he grabs the back of the cloak and reveals… -Jim Ross is not sure what to make of this guy. He puts over his physic in a big way as Graham then announces… SuperstarBilly Graham: I told the world. I told everyone. Look at this body. Look at this physic. Look at the man of the hour. The man with the power. The highlight maker. The heart breaker! This is the man who has a plan daddy. This the man who will rule the world. This is the one who oozes ravishing and the one who is too rude… ladies and gentlemen… the ravishing one… Rick Rude! ­-The crowd gives Rude a little rumble but more boos than anything. Superstar is showing him off like a piece of steak while in the aisle El Bracero is walking back and shaking his head. Rude doesn’t appear to be pleased. Jim Ross says that we will have more hwne we come back! *COMMERCIAL* -MSW Wrestling returns with Jim Ross putting over the debut of Rick Rude. Ross says that Bill Watts may be joining us after this contest. Ross puts over the history of these four men and builds up what could be a very special contest as we head to the ring… ThunderBolt Patterson & Mr. Wrestling II vs Masked Superstar & Don Muraco w/ Paul Jones -A pretty hot contest with four of the big stars of Mid-South right now. Jones is doing everything he can outside the ring to keep his men on the same page. We get some fists of fire with Wrestling II/Muraco & Patterson/Superstar. The fun occurs when the teams mix and Wrestling II and Masked Superstar have got something brewing between the two of them and it spills outside the ring. We have some chaos but when it comes down to it we see Paul Jones NAIL ThunderBolt in the back of the head with the TV Title! ThunderBolt stumbles into Muraco who grabs him for a PILEDRIVER and the 1….2…3!!! This one isn’t over as we have some chaos inside the ring with officials and agents breaking up the action. Jim Ross then says there is a commotion in the back. We see a quick camera angle and it is the ONE MAN GANG CHOKING OUT JYD WITH HIS CHAIN! WE WILL BE BACK! *COMMERCIAL* -MSW returns with Jim Ross putting over the attack from the One Man Gang. Ross says that he isn’t sure if the JYD will be able to wrestle here tonight… we then see Bill Watts come out. Watts and Ross go back and forth on the events and then Watts proclaims… Bill Watts: It has been an interesting turn of events over the past couple of weeks. Over the last 10 or so days some of the most trusted people in my life have gone their own way. I have had deals and programs put together with these men for years… well that time has come and gone and I am here right now to proclaim to everyone watching this television show and who watches and cares about Mid South Wrestling that we are here to stay… we are here to fight the good fight… and we are going to bring the BEST PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IN THE WORLD TO YOU!

Wait just a moment… JYD… -The JYD comes out and he has got a bloody bandage on his head… JYD: I wanna say something Bill… you see this blood right here… this blood… this sweat… and these tears… Bill Watts they are for every single person out there. Now I see you got me going against the One Man Gang on the 16th in that six-man… I don’t know who we will find as a partner yet… but I know he and I have a match signed for the 17th… I wanna use this… (pulls out a chain). You wanna do the thing… let’s do the thing. The Dog Collar Match… you bring your chain… one man walks out Gang! ONE MAN WALKS OUT! I AM COMING FOR YA! -Watts and Ross put this through the roof… they put over the main event with the Blackjacks and Dibiase taking on Wahoo and the Fantastics when we come back! *COMMERCIAL* -MSW returns with Ross and Watt putting over tonight’s action. They say that next week we will see the Rock n Roll Express taking on the Midnight Express. They put over how next week we will also see Wrestling II taking on Masked Superstar. We will also have more matches for the 16th and 17th. They put over the main event and we head to the ring for this huge six-man tag team contest. MAIN EVENT SIX-MAN TAG Wahoo McDaniel & The Fantastics v Ted Dibiase & The Blackjacks -A big main event with some of the biggest names in the sport right now. Fulton and Rogers get a nice amount of work and shine when they are in there with Dibiase. Wahoo plays well with Dibiase and the Blackjacks. We see Bobby Fulton come in and he just gets beaten within in an inch of his life. The Blackjacks and Dibiase are continuing their assault and then out of nowhere Fulton with the tag to Wahoo and the arena comes unglued! Wahoo with chops for everyone and then Rogers comes in with a big standing dropkick on Mulligan! Fulton then out of nowhere tackles Dibiase and takes him out of the ring while Wahoo sends Lanza to the ropes and comes back with a huge OVERHAND CHOP putting Lanza down for the 1…2…3!! Wahoo and the Fantastics have won it. Dibiase is looking to circle the ring with the Blackjacks and the One Man Gang but then we see the JYD run out with the chain… Bill Watts says anything could happen when these 8 men are in the ring. Next week we will have the full cards for the Two-Night Showdown in Houston and a major announcement from Bill Watts! Fans we will see you next week! NEXT WEEK ON MID SOUTH WRESTLING... Ted Dibiase takes on Bobby Fulton... Wrestling II vs Masked Superstar... and The Rock N Roll Express vs The Midnight Express!!

WWA back up then stampede for 2

I think it is updated now... Great picks all around. My 37 big board is down to 5 and I am guessing it will be down to nothing when all is said and done and I get to pick again!

I will get it done soon I'm at work right now.

And the last couple rounds have definitely depleted what I have left for a big board so from here on out it is all the accompanying pieces

Jimmy Hart and the first family coming to Mid Soutb... YES!

Tonga John to mid south - the barbarian!!
