Not gonna write a big OP but feel I should get a thread up so anyone who doesn't check my Peehs thread has a chance to check up.

Basically it will be somewhat similar to the wrestler drafts we do but instead of building a roster we will be building a HOF. Any individual who has been involved in wrestling can be drafted, as well as tag teams and stables. People who have already been drafted as an individual can still be drafted as part of a tag team or stable, even in the same HOF (there is at least one example of this in the WWE hall of fame.)

There will be a max of 10 teams, drafting 20 picks each (though this can be extended if people want). 12 hour clock with no dead zone, though again this can be changed if people want. If there's anything I missed let me know.

In so far:

Oh, draft order will be snake with the people picking at the end of the first picking at the start of the second and third, then normal snake after that, so ABBABABAB etc.

Draft will start 24 hours from this post or when we get 10 players whichever is first.

I have no issues going with six. I would however wait a little longer to see if those who were gone for the weekend see this and want in

Ok that’s fair, but I feel this would be better with fewer players so since there was no mad rush I’m gonna reduce the cap to 8. If it’s not filled by the start of raw we’ll start then.

By the way I should mention that potential shouldn’t be taken into account, we’re drafting as if they’re going into our hall of fame today.

In, if not too late

If someone wants a co owner instead that would be ok too

I have PMed yankeys, clock will start when he picks. Try and post writeups with picks (and entrance music if possible). Maybe add who you want to induct the person as well (although I guess this would interfere with the undrafteds rule).

Alright, pretty sure I've already locked in my pick and my inducting person for my pick.

I have a clear top 5 in order then after that I don't really have a clue so naturally I rand myself #7.

I could never decide between 1 and 2 at #1.

Pick 1.1:

Spoiler:
Hulk Hogan


Spoiler:
This is a pretty easy pick for me. There are a dozen people or so that make it hard to tell the story of wrestling without, but I think you can find some kind of replacement-level figure for all but a couple of those. I honestly can't imagine what wrestling looks like without Hulk Hogan. The Golden Era and the Monday Night Wars were two of the most popular times in American wrestling and he was essential in jumpstarting them both. His long list of titles and accomplishments are gravy.

Yeah, would have certainly picked him #1 also.

That said, allow me to steal the points that you left on the table by failing to post this:

I'm at work, so was trying to be quick. I'll think about who I'd like to induct as well.

The whole family caught a nasty stomach bug, so I’ll check in periodically, but I won’t do write ups until this stuff passes
