Official WBM Create-a-Card-from-Scratch Draft Thread - Page 10

Probably could've waited a few rounds to pull out Misawa but not a bad pick at all since he's a nice special attraction to a supercard. I don't think I've watched any of the Misawa/Vader matches, gotta do that. Easily two of the best strikers in wrestling history.

I like that match up A LOT more than Goldberg/Angle because Goldberg going 30 minutes with Angle would be hell to watch but a 15-20 minute slugfest with Henry would probably be much more entertaining.

Next up, one of the most over and most hated heels of all time. Known for taking his opponents old country way, making them humble, and not giving a ****:

Tough life

I think it's very hard to evaluate when people will go in this draft because of the nonexistent time element. It's so different from building a federation.

Yup, confirmed. Ultimate Warrior would be a laughable top 15 pick in a draft where lasting power matters, but he was a good pick here.

Yeah I'm completely lost in how people are supposed to be judging this. Seems like DWetz and SRM are way ahead of everyone else.

Shiek and Henry are laughably bad picks at this point IMO. Please don't book a 15 minute Goldberg/Henry match.

Guerrero on the other hand is a really nice pick.

My backup plan is a really good one though imo and def not getting back to me in 15 or so picks.

My next pick is the man who put ROH on the map: Samoa Joe. He held the ROH title for 21 months, main evented TNA for a while when it had good stuff on it, and was apart of the best match in TNA history. Too bad for him TNA dropped the ball with him. When I think of stiff workers I think of Vader, Joe, and undrafted. Vader vs. Joe would be an epic that would be remembered for quite some time.

And Joe was my next pick. I thought heel Joe vs face Bryan would be an awesome match, Joe/Vader works really well too, great pick.

Thanks... Like the heel face flexibility and can also use him as a cruiser weight if the opportunity arises

Also think Henry's a fine pick here, he's getting taken sooner rather than later.

I'd take current Iron Sheik if he just cuts promos using what he writes on his Twitter

This guy is a legit draw and is easy to slot into the card as a face or a heel depending on how I want to use him, will be over big either way, and while certainly no technical master can be a very good storyteller in his matches.
