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.

Began his first stint in WWE in 1993 as the country music singing JE-double-F (ha ha ha) JE-double R-E-double T. Rose to midcard status in 1994, winning his first IC title from Razor Ramon in 1995.
Jarrett went to WCW for a year and was introduced as a "free agent" to be bid on by the Four Horsemen and the nWo. Jarrett only lasted a year in WCW before opting to return to WWE.
When Jarrett returned, he delivered a worked shoot promo against UNDRAFTED and Vince McMahon. He led a stable of invading NWA superstars and actually defended the NWA title on WWE television. Jarrett had subsequent feuds with D-X and formed a tag team with Owen Hart, winning the WWE Tag titles.
Jarrett would later rejoin WCW where he created a stable known as "New Blood" which featured younger WCW wrestlers taking on the "Millionaire's Club", a group of older experienced wrestlers. After working in WCW for 2 years, he was fired by Vince McMahon who had just bought WCW.
In 2002, Jarrett and his father then created the wrestling company known as TNA. Jarrett has mainly appeared as a wrestler in TNA however has been a mainstay in the overall operations and booking of the company and has been one of the main reasons the company is where it is today.
Team OLD SCHOOL
Andre the Giant
Bruno Sammartino
Jeff Jarrett
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.
He is a 2 time world Heavyweight Champ, 5 time Us Champ, 2 tme Tv champ and 2 time Tag champ. He even main evented for WWf. One of the first guys to screw Vince and show up on nitro. He had longevity Main eventing for over 15 years. He had it and I think he is a steal this late.
Current roster. Kevin Nash, Mr Perfect and Lex Luger
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.
I'm going for a popularity contest. I could have picked better wrestlers. thought we were doing what the fans would like. which s somehting they would love about my roster.
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.)
