Spoiler:


Trust me, Goldberg is not the guy I planned on having pull double duty on my card, but this actually makes sense. In Kayfabe Hogan made Goldberg beat Scott Hall before he could face Hogan for the title. Hall makes Goldberg look like absolutely a million bucks, and this helps build the suspense to the Hogan/Goldberg match for the title. It gets me one step closer to this moment:

vs.



Spoiler:


As you can probably tell with a lot of my picks I was a huge WCW fan, so I had to have a Sting/Flair match. A lot of the good ones were for the title, and I thought of taking the one they had on the last Nitro but that wouldn't really have the significance in this format. So instead I took the match they had in 1999 for control of the company.

With my 8th pick, I select...



v.



Spoiler:
Chris Jericho v. Dean Malenko


Spoiler:
Butnahhhhhhhh


Spoiler:
With this pick, I take Chris Jericho on Monday Nitro taking on none other than Bore-us Malenko.

The sign thing on the way to the ring, Jericho's promo...hilarious. The in-match stuff like the suplex spot and Jericho draping himself over the ropes to mimic Bore-us is awesome too. And I have to say, Tony Schiavone does a really nice job at putting Jericho over here. Bell-to-bell time: 1:51.

With this match, I add a wrestling legend and a nice little comic relief segment to enhance my card.

Phill selects...

Spoiler:
R-Truth vs WWE champ Cena in a non-title tables match from the same Raw as the shoot, the total runtime i clocked at 5:13.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yyRjHzVaMo

Its not the best match but it helps my continuity so Cena doesnt magically appear in the ring for no reason.


Commissioner note:

Spoiler:
He could have had the shoot promo by just picking the match with his prior pick.Same thing as moorobot taking the match that Hall interrupted.

Ugh I'm kicking myself now. I could have waited on the Hall/Goldberg match, there's one match left that I really want so hopefully it's still there when it gets back to me.

vs.



Spoiler:


Bret Hart vs. The Undertaker, MSG, January 1992

We had to get Bret on here somewhere, and this seemed like the best way to do it. Undertaker gets a warmup match before going for the WWF title at the Rumble later in the evening. This has some historical value to it, as it is the very first meeting ever between these two Hall of Famers. There's a few technical problems with the video, so it comes in for me at 12:30.

Current card:

WCW LHW title: Jushin Liger (c) vs. Brian Pillman (SuperBrawl II)
Rockers on the Barber Shop
Bret Hart vs. Undertaker (MSG, 1992)
WWF IC title: Honky Tonk Man (c) vs. ??? (Summerslam 88)
Mr. Perfect vs. Blue Blazer (WrestleMania V)
WWF Tag titles: Chris Benoit & Chris Jericho (c) vs. Edge & Christian vs. Dudley Boyz vs.
Hardy Boyz, TLC match (SmackDown, 2001)
WCW World Champion Vader vs. Cactus Jack, Texas death match (Halloween Havoc 93)
Royal Rumble for the WWF World title (1992)


I think our card is done, given that we only have 2:37 left, but I'll wait until our next pick to confirm that.

Wesrwood asked to be skipped for his last pick, I'm going to assume that still applies here. Keed is on the clock.

Write-ups for my last two picks (thanks to LKJ for posting in my absence):

The Great Muta vs. Ricky Steamboat - Inoki's 30th Anniversary Show 9/30/1990 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX4AR9AflU4 - 18:58

Well, there's just no way I'm having a fantasy wrestling event without including Keiji Mutoh. He is far and away my favorite wrestler of all time, and as far as I'm concerned if I could build "the perfect wrestler" Mutoh would come closer to anyone else of meeting all the criteria. I kind of pinched myself into a corner with the available matches that I could use Mutoh in, in retrospect, but I had this one in my back pocket, and it really works well with the rest of my card. Getting the legendary Ricky Steamboat is just icing on the cake.

Kerry von Erich vs. Greg Valentine - 11/6/1981 St. Louis Wrestling Club - 8:06 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdWgXZjjSQo

Don't even ask me how I stumbled upon this match, but I was looking for an opener or dark match that had some recognizable names when they were young, and well, this accomplishes that and also gets Greg Valentine on my card, who is one of my favorites. Sometimes I think S. Louis gets lost in the memories of the great NWA days, but Sam Muchnik had a great fed for a long time, and I was glad to find a match from there to include.

My Card:

Magnum TA vs. Tully Blanchard - NWA US Title "I Quit Match" (14:43) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvVNzCI-GxQ
Bruiser Brody and Stan Hansen vs. Dory and Terry Funk - PWF World Tag Team Championship Match (18:57) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI0jj85QX9I
Ric Flair vs. Mr. Perfect - "Loser Leaves Town Match" (23:00) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlvLhUQ1-Yw
Wild Pegasus vs. The Great Sasuke - 1994 Super J-Cup Finals (18:46) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08pXe-jZEuA
Randy Savage vs. Hulk Hogan - WWF Championship - Wrestlemania V (17:54) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xnfc3uhdthc
Steve Williams and Ted DiBiase with Skandor Akbar vs. Jim Duggan and Terry Gordy - Texas Tornado Match (8:23) - http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xca...vs-jim-d_sport
Ricky Steamboat vs. The Great Muta - Inoki's 30th Anniversary Show 9/30/1990 (18:58) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX4AR9AflU4

I'm not sure yet which match/matches I want to take to finish off my card. Instead, I'll go ahead and grab the greatest promo of all time.



Tossing this promo into my show before the Wargames match will set the match up like nothing else could. The crowd is already rabid for my Wargames match. With this promo setting it up, the crowd heat will be absolutely insane.

I have not seen five of yankeys's matches. I'm going to love all the viewing this thread provides once I play catch-up at the end.

Nice pick on the Dusty promo by the way, keed.

Since yankeys referenced these two picks as his "last two," I'm marking him as done for the draft. Correct me if I'm wrong on that, yankeys.

As far as everyone else goes, say it when you know you're done. Like disko is under a minute left but he does have promo-drafting capability, so I won't just assume anyone is done unless they indicate that they are.

Yeah there's no limit aside from the time limit. That's just as far as I've gone with making the spreadsheet so far.

I can't understand how you guys are loading up the card with 2 hour time limit. I wouldn't mind doing another draft without a time limit. Just do something like ten matches and 5 promos.
