2012 OTC PWN WWE/WWF Wrestling Draft - Official Draft Thread

Loneshot, you stole my pick

Sorry, lol. Depending on who you pick and if another guy i want is still available, maybe i'd consider a trade.

I'd say Orton was the next best rookie star after Brock. He didn't take off as fast but probably went to a greater height.

I'd go with the latter. I think we should come up with categories that judges can evaluate and critique by, or the judges can come up with their own. Probably have 3 or 5 main categories, with a couple of minor categories related to the main.

Example
Main ----------------------minors
In-ring skills-------offensive arsenal and selling to opponents.
Achievements-------years of main event status/top billing, title runs/length of reigns,
Non-wrestling skills------mic skills, marketable asset

Something like that.

Yeah i'd like that over simply stating who would beat who in a match.

[AK47DR91]

I'm picking the guy who has a little of everything.

Chris Jericho

Despite the GOATs that have been taken, i'm surprised he slipped this far.

Ultimate Warrior sucks, plus he's batshit insane. I'm much more surprised that some other people are still around.

Sucks in what sense? When it comes to the world of pro wrestling, there is only on man that walked in during Hogan's prime and stole the spotlight.

[Jackass18]

He sucked as a wrestler. I liked your Lesnar pick a lot more, which sucks for me since the guys I had targeted (Andre the Giant, Lesnar, and Jericho) are gone.

[Loneshot]

Yet as we know, the WWF/E has never been about who is the best in-ring wrestler.

[Maniak]

wow ak thats a good idea.

[Jackass18]

I was kind of expecting someone to fall to me here, but I'll have to settle for:

Eddie Guerrero

[AK47DR91]

Personally, I think being able to put on great matches is just as important as having a diverse arsenal set of moves. The Rock, my all-time favorite, doesn't have many sets of moves like Angle or Hart but he's always been able to put on great matches. Ric Flair is another example.

And again, it's more than just in-ring skills. For the Warrior's case, you can use his main event status, title reigns, and significant role in the WWE/F for his case against another wrestler's great in-ring skills if you want.

Yeah i think we should definitely be judged and argue based on the criteria you mentioned before. Because while one guy may be a better wrestler, he may not actually be as entertaining as someone who just has pure charisma.

wow ak thats a good idea.

Thanks. Just a little idea for the judges and us to go by.

Also, BuffaloBill at plate.

we can judge based on a criteria but it needs to be an odd number of categories
