Just watched Funk vs Hansen from '82 before reading the pick. Very disappointed

Nice Dibiase pick. Talked myself out of taking him last 2 picks.

Is this the first time we have done this that Funk and Foley were on different rosters?

Alright I'm still up. Looks like there's a chance it might get back to me.

All right **** it.



Spoiler:


I almost went with someone else, but Lesnar is just too ****ing awesome to pass up. Longevity is an issue, but with his recent return that adds a lot of value to him imo. He's amazing in the ring, can work as a fan favorite or a monster heel. Like Rock heel leave my federation, get mainstream success, then return to my company. Plus a Foley/Lesnar match would be awesome. Imagine Mick bumping for Brock, it would be so sick.


Dylan's Roster:
Spoiler:
The Rock
Sting
Mick Foley
Brock Lesnar

With the ultimate uncool heel accounted for, I may as well pick up perhaps the ultimate cool heel. A man known for having it all; the looks, the mic skills, the in ring ability, and most of all, the drawing power. An innovator of style in multiple senses; both in ring wrestling style, and appearance.

Spoiler:

The first total package, the first nature boy, Buddy Rogers. If you were thinking of taking him, what Buddy has to say is: "To a nicer guy, it couldn't have happened."

Your spot got given away...sorry dude. Drafts will usually replace a person if they miss their first pick by any significant margin of time.

Buddy Rogers is a great pick and would be a first rounder along with Thesz and Sammartino if it weren't for recency bias. I considered him but at the moment I'm trying to draft different people from last time. That will probably change as we get deeper into the draft though and there aren't as many options.

rorrr, yeah unfortunately Judy ain't the most patient of wenches so you're out. There'll probably be another one in a couple of months, we'll make sure you have a spot reserved.

I really wish I'd have picked up Andre in the second round. Last time I ended up with hardly any recent guys so I thought I'd grab some big modern names at the beginning while they're hot but yeah, I should have just gone with the best pick available.

Rick Rude

I will begin writing up a pick as well just so it's extra painful when disko snipes it.

Last edited by LKJ; 06-05-2012 at 08:38 AM. Reason: Slow pony. Also I wasn't taking Rude.

At pick #34, I select...



Spoiler:
By the way, I have no idea why we put our YouTube clips in spoiler tags.



Even though I've never been a great fan of his, Roddy is obviously fantastic on the mic since it's almost singlehandedly what elevated him to legendary status. Also a great story-teller in the ring, gives a lot of longevity, wildly successful as both a face and heel...I think this is excellent value at 35.


Spoiler:
Roster:
The Undertaker
Kurt Angle
Dusty Rhodes
Bruno Sammartino
Roddy Piper

Pick #36



Spoiler:

Vader

I said like an hour ago that I'm staying away from people I drafted last time for now, but Vader is just so ahead of everyone else available in the monster heel category imo. I'm sure fans of the Japanese style of wrestling will be foaming at the mouth at the prospect of prime Vader vs prime Thesz.


Spoiler:
Roster:
John Cena
CM Punk
Vince McMahon
Lou Thesz
Vader

great pick LKJ, he was the guy i was torn with. i actually wouldve picked him had i picked last night but i slept on it and ended up changing my mind this morning.

Piper is good value here, I was definitely considering him. Too early for Rude imo but he's another one who I don't seem to value as much as anyone else (which is pretty much the case for everyone on disko's roster except Jericho).
