I always liked Savage's TNA theme http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VudDXIEAOKw btw LKJ was that the guy who you thought was by far the best value left?

I would have picked HBK over Rock and Cena if I hadn't already had him in one of thee drafts.

No, that guy is actually still available, though I've backed off my stance internally again. That's why I was "grudging" in my acceptance of it before. I do think it's who I'm picking if I can.

Judy, I shouldn't be the one to rule on whether they're skipped so I can pick now. Conflict of interest. This call's up to you.

Im executively letting Disko in since he is active. I told Jim to post in the sign up thread and he didnt.

Disko takes Bret Hart and Chris Jericho. You are up

Okay, those two going makes this pick very easy. And actually I wanted this guy more than those two. Pick incoming.

Was anxiously hoping LKJ didn't take Angle but was pretty sure he would. I think I know who I'm going for but I'm gonna need a little bit of time

If I had only one pick I would have taken HBK; not my personal favorite but this late I would have had to do it.

Welcome to my life, waiting on your first round pick. There's going to be a fun bit of back-and-forth sniping with you and me being next to each other in this thing.

I'd have taken Angle and Jericho over HBK, and maybe Bret Hart over him too. I seem to be on my own here though so it may be some kind of personal bias.

You weren't on your own. Angle was my target after I got done picking Taker. Granted if HBK was around it would have been a very tough pick, but all of the toughness got taken out of the pick by the time it got to me.

Oh I'd have probably taken my next pick over HBK too. Not entirely convinced on it but I'm gonna pull the trigger. Pick incoming.

HBK was wrestling match of the year candidates and looking great at an age at which even most hall of fame wrestlers are way past anything resembling a peak and getting a lot of go away heat. Like him or not, that is an amazing feat.

But you've shown yourself capable of putting together a fantastic supporting cast, so...

(For what it's worth, I do like him.)

HBK isn't anymore questionable as a draw then the guys taken 6-7 and 10-11, and really only Jericho of those was significantly better on the mic.

I'm torn between three guys for my next pick. Hopefully teejayC makes it a little easier for me.

God Punk wasn't one of the 3! I should have my pick up in a few.

He overtook John Cena in merchandise sales at the end of last year and has the potential to be the 'face of the WWE' for years to come.
