Also, no more whining from you whiners about me taking too long AND not using gifs or fancy fonts. Pick one or the other to complain about. Because I'm either posting from my phone asap, in which case I'm not wasting time doing stupid manual formatting, or I'm posting from my laptop when I have the time and formatting is much easier.

If gifs come with the laptop posting, THAT.

That said if I'm at work I'll just draft with the name, no sense in holding things for 12 hrs.

Same here. That's what I did with Flair yesterday.

Dang Baker changes his football allegiances almost as often as KING KID does. Almost.

I know! Sad, isn't it? The worst part is I didn't even realize it until I came to PW. I swear I don't do it just to be a front runner though. My reasons are always sincere. I'm just fickle. It was no different with wrestling. I'd be a huge fan of a guy. Then one bad angle, or an ill-timed turn, and I'm like "Be gone, yesterday's hero!"

You root for a football team called football team.

?? Confused you are, my friend. I am not a Washington Football Team fan. You must be thinking of Nobi. Only time I ever liked the Redskins was a year or two in the early 90s with Mark Rypien at the helm. They were usually in my bottom 10. Hating the Redskins is common in these parts. It's a Baltimore vs. DC thing. 

Best thing to do if you're gonna bash my football fandom is accuse me of being an insufferable frontrunner. Flip flopped between the Broncos & Saints from about 86-99 so I could have a team in each conference. Then waved the Terrible Towel throughout the 2000s-early 2010s. My interest in the NFL has waned considerably since then. I really only bother with the playoffs nowadays and my favorite team is Derrick Henry. 

I could have sworn you were a WFT fan. My bad.

@ness 🤯 any of you mofos up to GIF my pick? I’ll PM you my pick.

You got 10 minutes or I use regular font.

I just realized we can find out how many people are online when you’re on the site. @admin is that accurate?

Anyways; time to SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM!

OH YEAHHHH!

I didn't see this, but also...

I gif from my phone and am the same age as most of yinz, so fuck off with these weak excuses!

@ness wasn't wrong in his epic gif post when he called Flair a vanilla pick. Feels like I've picked Flair in a good 40% of PW drafts. Hard to pass on the GOAT. Guess what? Sting is vanilla, too! Probably took him in about 30% of PW drafts. 

Here's the thing. I had 2 ideas for this draft. Idea #1 is something that has never been done before on PW. The wrestling itself would have been almost irrelevant. Mere window dressing for an elaborate non-wrestling story. But it would have involved A LOT of writing and I just wasn't in the mood this time around. 

Option #2 is basic, safe, wrestling-related, and will involve a lot less writing. But at least Sting will not be wrestling Flair. I'm not THAT boring. 

Damnit. I was hoping we'd finally get to see a Flair vs. Sting dream match!

WCW's top star vs TNA's top star. Sad that it's never happened.

Friggen RT getting upset at his figure skaters skinning their knee on the ice. Taking a day!

If KING KID 's pick wanted to describe my recent drafting posts.

I think Ness is Spear guys...

Also Sting and Macho were atop my wish lists to make it back to me. Stupid #1 pick.

I was contemplating Macho Man for my first pick so this worked out extremely well for me. 

If AJ Styles didn't do the "peekaboo" in his entrance, he woulda never made it past opening match jobber.

I knew RT was drafting AJ Styles. I didn’t want him on my roster but I had no choice but to have him in my Top 3 just to make sure Styles didn’t get paired with some of the rosters in the Top 4 picks. Decided against sabotaging rosters and sticking to my plan.

You’re welcome.

Fuck you RT.

AJ was 100% my next pick and I 100% knew RT was going to take him. He’s so predictable.

Well fuck you for your hypotheticals and the fact I wasn’t going to get him anyways.

Looking forward to more Bret calling guys out. "He's the type who worked with the talent, he was never the guy"

I've edited my post to include GIFs.

Now begins the dread. I've had my guy picked since pretty much my last posting (I don't bother doing any long term planning because fuck you) and it's lasted a while. My #2 after this upcoming pick has already been captured. That was a gamble. But I really want this other guy. Will he still be here especially after a 2x pick from UT. I dunno bros, it's getting dark.

FUCK. I THOUGHT SETH WOULD HAVE BEEN SAFE. FUCKING UT

I had a whole Seth Rollins post ready to go. Oh well, I'll post it anyways:

"You watch Seth Rollins who they've pushed as this huge mega, mega push. I watched him a few months ago, and you can watch it back on YouTube but he knees John Cena in the face. Just knees him in the face so hard, so recklessly, so dangerously, you can easily kill somebody with a knee like that in the face."



"Seth Rollins needs to improve his technique and become the safest wrestler in the business. I have great respect for Seth. I believe he’ll improve and hopefully stop hurting the talent before someone gets killed. Wrestlers have to trust one another. If a wrestler holds the life of another wrestler in his hands for the sake of his family, wife or children you plain and simply cannot drop it!”



"Seth Rollins, I saw him hurt Cena and it wasn't even a week, ten days later that he was so rough or hard on Sting. He did things to a guy that kind of ended his career a lot faster. It was a little bit of a disrespect to a guy that you need to take care of him in the ring."

 

Well I was going to take HHH and Foley but you forced my hand!

Shootist, even though I'm loving your gimmick and am also disappointed you didn't get to drop that post for a Seth pick, I think you're actual roster is turning out for the better. Your top three are an excellent mix. Always enjoyes HHH/Kurt's chemistry in 2000/2001 and Bret tangling with either in their 2000 or later versions are dream matches.

I appreciate the compliments but I am not Shootist.

For that, I have to rate your post a 4/10.

Apparently we all look the same on mobile.

Also Seth ended Sting's career when he finally came to the WWE. And somehow Becky threw everything away when he has the same size dick as son. Seriously fuck Seth I hate him.

Also show please get trapped in a building that's on fire.

Fuck.

Granted there was still 5 more to go so likely he was gone.

So much potential.

Moonsault.

Goofy kurt.

MILK O MANIA.

That weird clown mask from TNA.

Why.

Lol, I pulled an iron maiden and KING KID/@ness'd @theshow/Shootist!

Fuck.

Foley and Angle were on my mind for my next pick. Fucking shit. I literally have no back up plan as I assumed 1 would get to me. Thought it would be Foley for sure.
