I also like the picks this round. Well done everyone.
His promos alone make him well worth it at this juncture. I was pushing DW to grab him this round myself.

No just the one. I'm sure he'll make a pick by tomorrow afternoon.

First, thank you to Dylan for making my pick for me and for bearing with me and my issues through the draft. If I'd have known I'd be out so much, I would've stayed out this draft.

My write-up for Dusty. Dusty was who I was talking about when I said I had a write-up done before erasing it all and taking Terry as I figured Terry's work rate + promos would be taken before Dusty's promo + passable work rate.

He's doesn't look how the athlete of the day's supposed to look but he's bad and you know he's bad!
Spoiler:



Spoiler:


Dusty's gimmick clashes perfectly with Corporate Rock and to a lessor extent, Razor Ramon. Imagine Rocky or Razor selling the Bionic Elbow . He'll also be a great rival to Terry Funk.

Roster:
Goldberg (97-98)
Corporate Rock (Survivor Series 98 - Backlash 99)
Big Van Vader (90-1/4/96)
Razor Ramon (WWF run)
Dusty Rhodes (77-end of 87) 77 is his first MSG main event
Terry Funk (1975-1997)

Onto the next pick hopefully soon.

I guess everyone waited for this round for Lucha Underground picks.

I choose one of my favorite on screen personalities in the business.

Here we have one of the most well acted gimmicks of the 2000's. I'm taking him for his insane character development from face to heel and to continue being a heel in front of smark crowds to face and back to heel again in epic fashion in a title defense vs. Bryan Danielson. Truly one of the saddest stories of unrealized potential in the wrestling business:

Well now that I'm fully tilted from that last pick, time to break some arms.

One of the most over guys right now in any promotion.

Time for me to start rounding out the stable. There really is no replacing this guy since he's the catalyst of the most popular faction in recent wrestling history.

Spoiler:


Prince Devitt/Finn Balor

Ran this by Dylan already but the name change is WWE mandatory and that's really all he changed. He was already using the demon paint in Japan for big shows and WWE is selling Balor Club merch and has acknowledged the Too Sweet on air.


Roster
Daniel Bryan
A.J. Styles
The Game HHH
Rated-R Edge
King of Harts Owen Hart
Samoa Joe
Prince Devitt

I was actually going to pick him if he was still available next round. For the purposes of the draft the pick is fine.

Yeah I can get on board with his ring work being a bit over rated but the entrances are super over and founding the biggest, most over stable in the world adds tons of value in this draft

I mean Finn is still the drizzling ****s, but he's inexplicably over as a face which means a lot for this draft.

I don't think it's that inexplicable. Cool entrance and face paint = getting over with the marks.

Who who who should I take ?

Well it's time to build a tag team division .

So why not take the longest reigning WWE / WWF tag team champions ?

Super over as faces and heels
