June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674051 Could Los Medicos be added to the list of tag teams? By July 10 they win the NA Tag titles, so it's very likely they were already in PR by the start date.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674056 Thanks Kris. I actually agree with Flyin' Brian about having to draft teams together. It adds another element to the draft.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674060 Probably right. I am planning my strategy of packing Portland with underrated miscreants.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674063 When did Maleo Huertas debut? Not sure when, but most likely 85-86. He's definitely around by 86.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674064 I guess for the midnight express too. What about picking one member of a team? I know someone mentioned just wanting Ricky steamboat but not wanting to have to spend a pick on Jay Youngblood. Personally I think that the designated teams should have to be drafted together, but it's up to the bookers what they want to do after that. I see this point, but I'd rather be able to split up teams for drafting if necessary. I didn't think Grimmas got an answer regarding Steamboat, and if he wants to change his pick to that I think it's fine.

I am banking on my prefered top babyface to be available when I draft.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674123 It seems the drafting of tag teams is the last thing that needs clarifying before we can draft. I would personally say that tag team wrestlers do not always have to be drafted together. Anyone disagree?
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674124 Separately I say. I mean for some (Steamboat, Brisco) there's obvious value in them as singles. For others, the tag partner's value plummets of you take the partner (just as an example, Robert Gibson), so you'll probably be able to pick him up cheap later.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674125 Yeah it allows for more freedom and flexibility while also adding an element of strategy to the draft.
June 9, 201510 yr Author comment_5674127 I say teams together, because there are so few and its kind of like cheating taking Morton early, because Gibson will be a low pick and you can take him way later.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674129 No because not all teams are that closely linked together. Some of them would be split up in 6 months like The Midnight Express. RNR Express really hadn't been teaming all that long and weren't a big money team yet, they could easily have been separated. Plus if someone took Ricky Morton early then with so many other people in the draft, isn't it likely someone is going to take Robert Gibson before them just out of spite/strategy?
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674131 And lesser partners in other teams (e.g. Youngblood, Jerry Brisco) might easily have a role outside of the team.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674132 On the more obvious teams, there is no way you could get away with drafting one early and trying to take the other later. No one is going to let you get away with doing that with The Road Warriors or The Freebirds or The Fabs. And you definitely shouldn't have to take a team like Bobby Fulton & Terry Taylor together considering how short their run as a tag team is. The option to draft as a tag should be there but not a rule that you must.
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674137 Probably need to clarify who the promotion owners are for drafting purposes. Places that had owner/wrestlers will end up not having to draft them I guess?
June 9, 201510 yr Author comment_5674139 Probably need to clarify who the promotion owners are for drafting purposes. Places that had owner/wrestlers will end up not having to draft them I guess? Yeah, we should probably have a list of owners out there and who is in draft and who is not. Kris?
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674145 If you go that route then you would have some saves that need to be changed
June 9, 201510 yr comment_5674146 Just to clarify, do our save picks have to be someone from the initial rosters listed by KrisZ? Or can the be anyone?
