WBM All-time Match Draft - Page 5 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Oh, now I see where the struggle came in. I was scratching my head at the sheer possibility of ginger not taking Taker/HBK. Turns out that wasn't a possibility.

Haha, well there were actually several others which came close, but only because I spent so much time trying to work out which of those I'd pick if and when someone else took both the 'Taker/HBK matches. Although my second-favourite match of all time is now off the table for me as it involves HBK.

Ginger is on the extended clock until 1 p.m. EST.

Just a stance against WWE matches as I'm going to pick an ECW match, a TNA match, and then a couple of indy matches.

My thought exactly. Gives me room for some great matches. Also to have Terry Funk main event my card against the greatest wrestler of all time in my favorite gimmick match of all time (I quit/submission matches) I thought it was a perfect first pick.

I figured I could wait as a lot of people would go with other Flair matches but I'm not too worried about any of my matches being picked.

Should take Punk/Hero from IWA: MS that went 90 minutes.

That's the problem with all the truly great indy matches. They all go too long for this structure.

Plus Punk vs. Hero was okay. I am going to draft an IWA MS match as my next pick. I was strugling between that and a TNA match with similar competitors.

As already stated I'm burned out from WWE overload so I will be drafting only non WWE matches and based on how much they wowed me when I saw then the first time. With that said here is my pick;

I have a feeling that this draft is going to be who can post the most obscure, best indy match.

Maybe between 2-3 of you, but I doubt that will be most of it.

I won't be picking a lot of obscure indy matches but I can't have a card without that 6 man.

TBH, Its not that great of a match. It's a good match, but nothing close to epic.

I haven't seen that match before, I'm pretty excited about getting to watch a lot of great matches I haven't seen.

What an awesome ****ing match. The wrestling in that match was better than literally every match nominated in the best match tournament. WWE should use the Dragon Gate rule in a tag match. It makes it so much more exciting when someone can come in without being tagged.

I'm just talking about the wrestling. Idk the storyline at all so I can't comment on that, but I don't care where the match is on the card. That match is so sick.

It's not even close to being a 5 star match. CIMA is a goat but the rest are above average at best. If you were to compare it to american stars, imagine a 6 man with guys like Jimmy Jacobs, Teddy Hart, Amazing Red, Ace Steel, MDogg 20, and AJ Styles. One doesn't belong.

LKJ, Flair vs Funk is listed as an NWA title match on the spreadsheet, but I'm pretty sure it was non-title. Just FYI.

Oh, you're right. Wonder why the title wasn't on the line since Flair was the champion then.
