I have Al Madril slotted for my 18th round pick so no one touch him.

I'm going to miss Ole, but I'll be fine as long as my 2nd choice makes it through the next 8 picks.

Apology redacted. Damn it Ole.

OK cool. Sorry if it's coming off like complaining.

Priorities. Appreciate you doing that, but can we at least do it in a way that doesn't hold things up?

I think we should be allowed to bitch when they're on the board and not just out of reach for a few hours.

I expect Parv's pick to be absolutely amazing since he's been working on it for like an hour.

1983 Rulebook
No, otherwise they probably would have been taken near the beginning. At least with the injured guys they're back in a lot less than six months. Funk comes back after a couple of six month drafts.

Everyone basically is a smaller fed now because of the equal drafting. It's not like WWF and AWA were able to draft 2 for every smaller promotions 1 or anything.

I agree. He was a strong possibility for my next pick. Now I'm hoping the other "diamond in the rough" I have in mind can last another round.
-
Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
Well he was a rookie at the time and didn't really get great for a few years so I'm not surprised he wasn't grabbed right away.

Williams was a contender for my next pick, nice one Wahoo.

True, but I was clinched when I saw that in 1983 Meltzer wrote Hector was a truly incredible wrestler no one knew about. He'll probably be a face to start with anyway.

Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
I was wondering why you chose Mando first Dylan, thought maybe you had a specific reason. Hector is basically my Eddie. His territory character blows my mind and I'm so happy you went the other way.

That was way too close for comfort. Chavo was on my radar, but even before he was chosen I'd decided I wanted Hector as my foil for Tommy Rogers. Dylan picking Mando....wow. Scared me good.

1983 Draft Thread
David Crockett steps up to the mic sweating like a hooker talking to a beat cop. "This was a close one everybody, but Jim Crockett Promotions is happy to announce that with our 6th round pick, we are drafting Hector Guerrero!" Mariachi music begins to play with confetti falling from the ceiling of the convention center. Hector Guerrero walks down to the podium wearing a sombrero and holding toy guns. He gives David Crockett a big handshake and smiles for the press.

Trade deals
Jim Crockett and Ric Flair want it known that he is always open to appear on other big shows around North America. Flair was World Champion until June 10th and will surely eventually be again, so he'd be a great get for any competitive promotion to make their stars look major league.

BRAINBUSTER 5!!!!!!!!! IF YOU WEEEEL
Same. When it comes down to literally one question, that can sting. Stella Mae and Harley Davidson were somewhere in my knowledge banks, but at the time I knew nothing was going to pop up. Hyped that I didn't embarrass myself though and looking forward to building to that rematch.

Things left to be Settled
I think expansion should just be based on when someone drops out or falls behind, then their territory may be divided and conquered. Also want in on freelancers. Also want in on President or Committee.
-
Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
I'll be out for an hour, hopefully Dylan picks in the meantime. And hopefully Dylan doesn't choose the same guy I want.
-
Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
Somers is available. He was a freelancer at the time so maybe he was overlooked when compiling the list.
-
Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
I assume that's basically it until morning. Desperately hoping my next pick isn't usurped by one of the five promoters before me. It's a good one.
-
Draft discussion, analysis and trash talk
He's still around, I assume he's thinking about who to pick next. The list of wrestlers needs to be updated because its a couple rounds out of date. Adonis isn't listed as picked in the thread for keeping track of draft picks.
