Kings of Wrestling and Beer Money i actually put the bids up on a couple hours ago expecting them to go for more, sigh.

1875/2500 spent, but i got 5 awesome tag teams, two of which have two main event singles wrestlers in them.

Tbh i think the price is spot on for everyone of them, i just didnt expect to win 5 of my 6 bids and only really wanted Beer Money and Kings with another pick or two like Gen Me or MCMGs to give me depth to split one or two tag teams up.

My strategy last week was 100% different to what it is now cos you nerds way underpriced your bids imo

It is rather eerie that LKJ so often bid close to me. Was not expecting that.

Only lowered my bid on the Killer Bees an hour or so ago. I was bidding 15 before. Was undecided on how much I truly wanted them. But that's the story on you winning that bid.

Was a hard choice but they were solid workers and Brunzell attained decent popularity in a couple of different places so decided to actually bid something.

Best deal of any of the teams that went for over 300+ in my view.

"Cut Player" removes the player from your roster and opens up another roster spot, but you don't get any salary cap money back.

So if you have $2500 to spend on 25 players, buy a guy for $100, and then cut him, you have $2400 to spend on 25 players.

Should all tag teams be unavailable now or are we going to let them stick around like the other wrestlers will?

I mean, Hawk's mic work is probably worth 250 by itself.

I actually bid $5 on them as my first bid as a test. Then changed it to zero cos i didnt even think they were worth a dollar, lol.

I've decided at 50 cents each,and thereby THE cheapest wrestlers in the draft, it's probably OK.

As George Carlin once famously stated, “I've never had a 10, but one night I had five twos, and I think that oughta count.”

Or, in this case, two 4s.

I suspect we can bid zero on talent and pick them up for free given it saves the zero dollar bids, but we havent had chance to (dis)prove that theory yet.

Considering that I got a good tag team and singles Rikishi in one package for $8, I like my value also.

They're easily the most popular tag team of my lifetime. I was hoping nobody would bid on the Sheepherders, but they got away.

I think later on it'll be pretty much shown that every tag team bought was probably undervalued.

Especially Cryme Tyme.

You mean JTG, who has been in the WWE for 4+ years without holding a single title ever?

Well given that collectively the losing bids on Cryme Tyme total $5 they don't have to be worth very much for them to be undervalued by us.
