These PWI 500s are amazing. Once I get past the top 50, I start alternating between "Who's that?" and "ZOMG NAILZ WOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!"

While I appreciate the effort, I think doing the rankings by breaking down individual categories just doesn't work unless you have a category that accounts for how well they work together. That was a huge reason for putting Sting and Lawler together. They both have super longevity, Lawler made up for Sting's lack of elite mic skills but Sting makes up for it in what he does in the ring and how likable he is. Lawler evokes tons of negative emotion in people, plus he has GREAT value as an announcer. I just don't see how that combination is a lower half duo in this draft.

I actually agree mjw. There's definitely a couple lower-half duos who instinctively I would rate higher than the scores. It was still fun to do.

I really have no idea if this is a good pick or not. My gut tells me no, but his overall resume is pretty impressive I would say.

So with the 44th pick...

At this point I think it's a very solid pick actually. I'm not a Jarrett fan at all, but I mean, it's round 3, Jarrett in round 3 is fine.

J-E double F J-A double R-E double T

Used to love that... I think he's solid, can you post your entire team? That matters a lot when determining whether something is a good pick at this point.

JJ was amazing when wrestling in TN w/Lawler. He went to WWF and they completely trashed him with the country gimmick.

IMO he was a very solid worker in the south, then had to and 'pay his dues' with the big boys and that ruined him.

Not a huge fan of Jarrett, and I think you missed someone that would have fit a lot better with your roster.

I think Jarrett's a good pick given your roster, he fits some needs

JJ is a solid pick, if unspectacular. I sometimes wonder if he would've gone further in the WWF with his second run if he hadn't pissed Austin off so badly when he came in.

Luger I do not like, especially on a roster with Nash already there.

Yeah, not a fan with Luger and Nash as 2 of your first 3 picks

Totally forgot about JJ, but laughed pretty hard when I saw the picture. That dude was absurd.

I hate Luger so much I don't even have him on my close-to-200-guys board. (I know he's a top-200 all-time guy but I wasn't going near him with a 10-foot pole.)
