WBM All-time Match Draft - Page 10 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

lots of years in between your two matches (which im still not sure what to make of, but it seems like other drafted are against that).

that match was truly awesome though. big point in hart's career for sure.

Personally - the fact that matches are 20+ years apart doesn't bother me at all.

I stated earlier that if the same person appeared on your card twice, a long time apart, that I would consider that negatively.

EXAMPLE: You draft the Shockmaster promo that features Ric Flair from the 80s, then draft Flair vs. Hogan from TNA in 2011. That, to me, makes no sense.

Having two matches like wsrwood does that are 20 years apart, but feature totally different people, doesn't matter to me at all - personally.

I think Perfect v. Bret KOTR is superior in ringwork and doesn't saddle me down to that as my IC title match unnecessarily. IC title match is obviously sick too. It has historical significance as Bret's breakout singles match that really pushed him to the next level, but in a one-card vacuum that factor doesn't do much. They were within a minute of each other in time, so no big deal there. I'm glad to have the one that I have and it's not as though I was unaware of the other one, but in any case nice pick.

Also Dylan is completely delusional about Bret, who apparently was carried in every great match of his career.

Age doesnt bother me, but what makes a good card is so subjective means meh, each to their own. Ive already picked two matches 11 years apart. Similar to the WM draft im just picking for my own personal tastes.

No Nash didn't really carry Bret in their match, but Owen, Austin, HBK, and Perfect all carried Bret.

Was Goldberg stealing Jarret's finishing moves?

they also had a rematch at the next years Supercard of Honor event that appears to have gone unrated for some reason. Cima and I think Doi swapped sides but the rest was the same.

I'm gonna take a reach in the sense that it would probably be around by the time my next pick rolls around, but for certain strategy reasons I'm gonna go ahead and take it anyways.

Spoiler:

Card Thus Far:

WCW Cruiserweight Championship, Title vs Mask: Eddy Guerrero (c) vs Rey Misterio Jr.

WWF Intercontinental Championship: "Macho Man" Randy Savage (c) vs Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat (WrestleMania III)

I feel the same way to be honest. I couldn't pick between the many great world title matches and higher profile matches, so I just sorted by match length and picked what I felt was the best short match. When it comes back I imagine there will still be lots of great top card matches, so I have no issues waiting on the big draws.

People who attend my event live, or watch it on PPV, aren't going to see the best technical wrestling - but damn are they going to leave having seen some of the biggest moments in wrestling history.

Trevorwc should just name his card "Most Shocking Wrestling Moments". The fans that go to see his show are going to faint from all the surprising things that happen.
