I know that everybody will hate this next pick, but I don't give one damn, because this guy is 100% completely absolutely...

Spoiler:

With my next pick I select the person in this draft who can very clearly be called the most improved from their original position to their peak. I can only mean

Huge steal seems like a bit of a stretch but it's a decent pick.

My roster needs something to draw the trolls to my audience, which would result in better signs, and better entertainment overall.

I select:
Damien Sandow

Yep.

I'll wait for the people who are really disappointed that he's off the board now to chime in, but I won't hold my breath.

I will take Christopher Daniels. Another guy who can really go in the ring and bring pure awesomeness to the upper mid-card.

I'm hoping to recreate a lot of the excellent wrestling of early TNA before the AIDS set in, and he was definitely a part of that.

I'll take Dynamite Kid.

Bret Hart has called Dynamite Kid "pound for pound, the greatest wrestler who ever lived." He main evented a program in Stampede built around a heel tossing around the arena like a ragdoll. That will come in handy with my current roster.

Yeah, Orndorff would have been on my short list here.

Far more valuable pick than Jarrett IMO.

Yeah, Larry Z may have been the pick on the way back. Considered him with this last one. His overwhelming heat came just after the 1980 cutoff. You don't have Sammartino, but obviously Larry can backstab Hogan or whoever.

In this format I agree. I get the impression that a lot of Jarrett's heat was Roman Heat; not quite go away heat, but "Get the hell away from the top of the card" heat

Obviously Larry's greatest moment in wrestling was from the broadcast booth during a Hogan/Warrior promo segment on Nitro.

Warrior: "Hogan, I will beat you, and I will send your body across the country in a BOX!"
Larry: "I hope it's not a CABLE BOX."

Larry really was historically bad in the booth.
