I really wish I knew who you were going to pick. There's two guys I really want and I can't decide which order gives me the best chance of getting both.

Pretty sure moorobot is targeting Milo of Croton as his first pick.

Maybe Pharoah will show up and take his pick, and you will have zero percent chance of getting both!

I had trouble deciding between him and another wrestler but in the end I decided on my Olympic Hero. He's in the conversation for greatest in ring wrestler of all time, he can cut awesome promos as a heel or face, he's held countless titles, can fued with anyone, and has been the face of a company. Yes TNAids counts. All in all I just think his value is too sick to pass up here.


Team so far:
Spoiler:
Kurt Angle

My first pick:



Spoiler:
Savage was so good in so many different ways, and I'm surprised that I am able to get him here over guys who are much less multidimensional. He had an extremely high peak; out of the two most purchased pre-attitude era PPVs in all of wrestling, he main evented one, and stole the show in the other. He also was involved in several of the best feuds ever. A long career with many good years? Indeed; he had nearly a quarter century of awesomeness both on the mic and in the ring.

Mic Work? Check. Ring work? Check. Drawing power? Check. Merchandise sales? Check. Success as top heel? Check. Success as a main event face? Check. Huge amount of fame drawing attention to the organization? Check. Big time value at this pick?

Oooooooooooooooooooooo yeah.

Savage had it all in large quantities without burying or having a lot of baggage.

Kurt Angle was the correct answer.

Yup I had Angle and Savage next on my board in that order. My top 10 is finally off the board thanks to those last two picks.

Savage is also great value and kicks the **** so hard out of Dibiase for value. Although he never got true separation from Hogan in 1988, when Hogan was out filming No Holds Barred there was no loss of revenue for the WWF while Savage was holding down the fort. You also get almost 15 years out of him if you choose to start him in 1985 form. He is also immediately over.

Yeah, I like that pick.

I was really really hoping id get Angle when it swung back. He and Taker were the two i mentioned when choosing Edge and it was his drug abuse and the **** with his wife and kids that made me choose against him. Really solid pick otherwise though.

He was also one of the better picks instead of HHH doing the same thing as HHH i mentioned.

I dont think you get more than 5 years out of him main eventing is the problem

There's two people left that I can't decide between, I really hope Moorobot takes one of them.

My next tier has only three guys left. As that starts dwindling (and with you guys I expect it to be the next three picks) I'm going to be really tempted to move up.

As for my next pick, the most difficult choice is which awesome entrance theme to use.

Is it:



or

Spoiler:
This man’s resume in a career draft is jaw-dropping. A quarter century as a ticket selling, merchandise selling, kid hooking for life, ratings grabbing top face; 25 years as the face of a franchise, more or less!

Awesome peaks in addition to being a top star for even longer than the Undertaker: main eventing the #1 selling non-WWE PPV in history during a year when his merchandise sales were off the charts, and a decade earlier main eventing a show that went head to head against WM IV and greatly decreased the predicted buyrate of it.

One of the best at doing mic work designed to appeal to children without driving away adults much with it. Multiple runs with the WOAT writer couldn’t ruin his overness; none of the hundreds of company botches and botchers he’s had to deal with could. An utterly foolproof moneymaker.

Oh, and in his younger days, he was nearly as strong as John Cena, but also a great high flyer with incredible stamina and speed-an awesome in ring worker-and sure to provide entertainment for the masses in addition to the athletic tools. He even comes with no baggage or backstage bs, and is known in fact as easy to get along with and a good clubhouse guy

Roster so far:

Randy Savage

I wanted to pair Taker and Sting. Sting had a huge peak

Well I was really close to taking someone perfect but I just couldn't pass Punk up. He is an amazing heel and a great face. He's proven that he can be main event, he cuts the best promos in the business and wrestles some of the best match today. Just imagine an Angle/Punk fued.


Roster so far:
Spoiler:
Kurt Angle
CM Punk

Sting is such a great pick. He was on my radar for sure if he was still available when it got back to me.
