Teejay's pick #54:



Spoiler:

"Classy" Freddie Blassie

"Classy" Freddie Blassie is generally regarded by wrestling historians to be the greatest at interviews in the history of this business. His heel work was so effective that he caused fans to have heart attacks, and some Japanese fans even died one night as they were so shocked when Blassie filed his teeth and then drew blood of one of their Japanese heroes by biting his forehead. He was a regular on talk shows and has also appeared in films as well as having a chart hit with the delightful piece of music that you're (hopefully) currently listening to. After 40 years of wrestling he retired from in ring action and had another solid 12 years as a manager.

Some may see this as a reach due to the amount of sought after talent that is still available, but those people are clearly pencil neck geeks, grit eating freaks, and scum sucking pea heads with lousy physiques.

that's christian's music!

may be a reach, but i have edge. that in itself makes having christian an absolute necessity. rebooting one of the GOAT tag teams ever? hell yea.



besides that, christian also had a pretty solid singles career. he can be a main event level heel or an upper mid-card face and is pretty reliable. going on 14 years of consistency. decent ring work. solid on the mic. plus kazoos for everyone!

It's gratifying to watch IRM have to prop up Christian right now after watching him prattle on about how incredibly mediocre he is a couple of weeks ago.

If I was more ambitious, I'd dig up his rants on how bad Kane is and how he wants him to go away and never come back, not to mention Big Lazy and Triple Hubris.

To be fair, he makes no bones about his hatred of HHH even during this thread.

Also I have Judy's pick, so once IRM goes again we can officially get ourselves into a pick run if Dylan has hung around.

Further, per teejay's suggestion, and Judy's silent approval since he wouldn't oppose this in a million years, drafting windows are now four hours for the remainder of the draft. (The dead zone will still happen at night.)

the whole ****ing show rob van dam

main event heels are dime a dozen, really. main event faces who are truly over are pretty ****ing rare. cheered relentlessly during the invasion angle, rvd was one of the many who should have had a WHC run during h's reign of "omfg go the **** away already" during raw. though he only held the wwe title for a month and had to drop the ecw belt cuz he got busted for weed, he had the ability and popularity to justify multiple reigns at the top. his mic work leaves a bit to be desired but his promos with cena leading into ONS were legitimately awesome. does show he can have an edge to him and not just be a perpetual happy go lucky stoner

Lkj I need a ruling. Can we make anyone an authority figure or did they have to be one irl?

Also I take superstar Billy Graham. We was my centerpiece last time so I need him again

This may be a facemelter, but I really need him for the type of company I plan on running so...



Spoiler:


JR is the GOAT announcer. His voice instantly brings credibility to my company. He'll be the voice of my federation through out it's existence. He can also conduct interviews and backstage segments. JR can turn a bad match into a good match, a good match into a great match, and a great match into a legendary match. And because of that I don't think this is too early to take him.

The Rock
Sting
Mick Foley
Brock Lesnar
Randy Orton
Owen Hart
Batista

To me you can use these people as creatively as you want, assuming he was physically able to for that period of time. And since "physically able to" basically means "alive" in the case of an authority figure, I say have at it.

Nice little pick run, but I guess now we'll probably be waiting a bit since teejay was going out and only sent along the one pick to me.

It's going to be funny if teejay's call for a four-hour clock causes him to be the first one skipped.

Sorry for the delay. Didn't realise I'd be up again so soon, and I had no idea who to pick; I've spent the last half hour staring at my draft board. I must have changed my mind about 10 times before finally settling on this guy....



Spoiler:


Ultimate Warrior

He has his critics but not many people were as over as Warrior was during his peak. Was arguably more popular than Hogan in the late 80s/early 90s.
