Naturally, I'd draw up a list of names for each of us if we did go down that route.

Yeah happy with that
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

If we are thinking of adding any new rules then I'd quite like to see one where you can't pick any wrestlers you have done in previous years. All us guys who have been in it since the start would be at quite a disadvantage, but it would be a nice way to keep things fresh. Also might mean people stuck low down in the order wouldn't necessarily be as fucked. To be honest, I tend to avoid picks from previous years anyway, so I doubt it would make much difference to me.
Maybe only going back a few of the last ones. I'm sure i picked a load of different ones each time but there's been 4 or 5 of these so i'd be left with some slim pickings :D
Could also be a pain in the arse to be told you cant pick someone because you picked him back in 2012... ;D pick another one, no, you picked in 2013... :D

Yeah, that's a good point. I'm not fussed if people just want to keep it simple though. Just trying to prevent Samie from sabotaging his own team up by picking Giant Gonzalez for the millionth time.

He is the one who stopped this Undertaker at WrstleMania being undefeated before Lesnar did him. Taker didn't beat the G Man.

I've had a gander at me own. Now i don't mind the challenge but it's a seriously smaller pool to pick from :D
Wrestlers i've picked over the last 5 drafts

The Rock
Razor
Sid
Haku
Perfect
Dibiase
Piper
Macho
Rude
The Road warriors
Flair
Greg the hammer
The Model
Vader
HHH
Arn Anderson
Tully
Goldust
King Kong Bundy
Harley Race
Big Boss Man
Irwin R schyster

I'd imagine most would have favourites but i'd like to think people would still mix it up anyway. We could also just ban Samie from picking Giant douche

Haha Jaysus! That is some list. Maybe let's stick to the simple no blocks draft, Giant douchbag excepted.

Why don't we say you have to have at least one from the 80s, one from the 90s, one from 00s & one from 10 to present?

That way the you don't just see people only pick modern ones or only pick 80s ones.

I'll actually use that list to try and pick others that i haven't before (might pick Martel again though ;D) But don't think it would a good idea to enforce it on others

Agreed, let's keep it as simple as possible. Definitely interesting to look back on previous picks though. I'll probably do the same. Don't mind compiling similar lists for others if anyone else is interested.

And womens wrestler, so six picks in total

Like that actually, should see some new picks as well for hardcore champion.

How do you guys decide who you're voting for? Best team chemistry? Best all round four guys? Who was booked strongest? If I had Goldberg, Andre, Taker and Brock, would I win because they probably have less than 100 losses in total?
