June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679735 TravJ1979 gocGrimmasDylan Wacodkookypunk43El BoricuapeachchaosFlyin' Brian I have Grimmas' pick so I will be putting it in right after mine. Dylan will most likely follow shortly so if you are behind Dylan Waco don't think you are too far away to have to think about using a proxy pick if you aren't going to be around in the next few hours.

June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679746 Boon can have access to Jimmy Valiant if he wants to recreate the never ending Paul Jones Army feud. Thank him for saving me from myself on that one.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679747 I wanted him to take Cocoa Samoa because he wanted a Samoan but now they're all gone really But he put in a late change of Paul Jones.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679748 Yeah that's why I grabbed the mild Samoans a couple of rounds ago, thought people might be eyeing them since there weren't many left.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679749 Roy Lee Welch standing at the desk in his crown beside Gordon Solie as they listen to an obviously fake Ronald Reagan phone call talking about the greatness of Roy Lee Welch and how disappointed Ron is about the way Roy had the U.S. Junior Title stolen from him is one my favorite things from all of wrestling probably. The King of Rasslin' was a real highlight for me watching 1986 CCW and I didn't want him to sit unloved on anyone else's roster. Not to mention talent wise he HAD to be somewhere within the top 10 best talents left.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679751 I was going to ask if Cocoa was the last Samoan left. Still surprised I was able to get Samu so late. When did Fatu start?
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679753 I had been considering El Bracero, I had the choice of him and Van Camp (initially based on me mixing him up with El Corsario). Ultimately decided I just had too little information about Bracero and had a ready made plot line for Van Camp.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679755 Yeah couldn't find anything on El Bracero when I was researching guys. Unfortunately International Championship Wrestling doesn't look all that international.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679778 How many Riverias are there exactly? Around 4-5, but I think none of the ones active at this time I are related. Rivera is a common last name in Puerto Rico, like Smith or Jones in the U.S.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679783 peachchaos - Time expires at 8:17 PMFlyin' Brian - I have a proxy pick from Flyin Brian if peachchaos picks after he's goneKrisZJHawkJerryvonKramerWahoos Leg - I have a proxy pick from Wahoos Leg if he isn't around I can take proxy picks if you're in between Flyin Brian & Wahoo and we can knock out Round 17.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679791 Wahoos Leg has 2 picks in a row and I only have 2 proxy picks from him so JHawk you and JVK better not mess it up. JHawk Jerry Von Kramer Wahoos Leg Wahoos LegJerryvonKramerJHawkKrisZFlyin' Brian If you're in there and worried you might need a proxy pick, send it to me.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679798 Dang it, I could have held off if you didn't have him on your list no one did. Oh well, The King is a good hand.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679799 Soto didn't look very good in the battle royal from MSG October 81 we watched recently.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679800 But his appearance was more notable for the fact that when Howard Finkel was announcing him, he said "from Puerto Rico", crowd went absolutely apeshit expecting Pedro and then died down the second they realised it wasn't him. Then, Pedro did come out and they erupted again. One of the funniest examples of the "wrong guy" pop I've ever seen.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679801 Soto had a weird duck out of water run in Continental that didn't really impress me at all. I have no idea how he even wound up having a run there really.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679802 Roberto was a great hand for Continental in 1985-86 He was a star for Ann Gunkel's All-South in Georgia in 72-74 Plus he was also Invader II for WWC.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679803 He looked like he was in his mid-30s in 81. It was one of those where I was expecting Kelly's bio to be really short and then he rattled off a 10-year career. "And he was Invader 2".
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679807 But his appearance was more notable for the fact that when Howard Finkel was announcing him, he said "from Puerto Rico", crowd went absolutely apeshit expecting Pedro and then died down the second they realised it wasn't him. Then, Pedro did come out and they erupted again. One of the funniest examples of the "wrong guy" pop I've ever seen. This sounds absolutely hilarious, I'm going to have to check it out.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679811 This draft is becoming so draining. It's killing my initial interest. Instead of 32 rounds, can we change it like where we can make 3-5 picks per turn and shorten it to like 20 rounds tops? I mean I only have 5 guys left and they are all job guys. I'm tempted to just post the guys on my list and deal with anyone who also wants them via PM. What do you guys think?
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679815 We really do need to come up with some way to just get the rest of the draft over with. I almost say just go 1 hour time limit, if you don't like it make a proxy list. We would be done in 2-3 days tops.
