Professional Wrestling Promotion Draft - Page 99 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I really would like to hear a reasoning here, since Kane actually has/had pretty solid in-ring skills. His masked gimmick was better than Big Show's/Giant's ever has been (which is pretty much just being a huge guy) imo.

Pillman is pure genius. I was really hoping that he'd be slept on

I don't get the Pillman love. I feel like his death actually helps his fame more than it hurts him here. He was never as beloved before he died as he was after imo (this can probably also be said about Owen to a lessor degree). It's probably a good pick but it's not like some great value steal.

Oh I'm not disagreeing that he was awesome. I just don't remember him ever getting a significant push. You guys are seeming to completely ignore stuff like that and I'm not sure you should be.

Whoever had the idea of including the intro music and spoilering the pick was a genius.

Meh. I think we are getting to the point where guys are taking the best fit and not the best player available.

wrt Pillman, I agree that he is a bit of a reach, but like every other one of my picks, he was the guy I wanted and I was willing to overpay.

entrance music is awesome

I have always maintained my only requirement for my wedding is that I get to pick the entrance music. and I am torn between "Enter Sandman" and the SCSA theme.

Close runners up that have been eliminated are the bret hart theme and the million dollar man theme

Kane's entrance to a wedding with fireworks would be fantastic

Then after you say I do, the groom could rip off the Kane mask and reveal it's THE BEST MAN. OH MY GOD JR SHE MARRIED THE WRONG GUY.

Then cut to you being tied up in a closet demanding number one contender status at the divorce proceedings.
