Welcome all to the 8th Survivor Series Draft

Previous winners:

2019: Hellrazor (Bret Hart, Brock Lesnar, Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase, Ricky Steamboat, Jim Neidhart)
2017: Betty Blue (Stone Cold Steve Austin, Jake Roberts, Vader, Demolition)
2016: El Lobo (Bret Hart, Davey Boy Smith, Vader, APA, Gail Kim)
2015: Betty Blue (Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, Owen Hart, Yokozuna, Davey Boy Smith, Dynamite Kid, Lou Thesz)
2014: El Zar (Hulk Hogan, The Dudley Boys, Dean Malenko, The Big Boss Man)
2013: Bobadicious (Stone Cold Steve Austin, Brian Pillman, The Steiner Bros)
2012: Barnsley Scouser (Macho Man Randy Savage, CM Punk, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard)

Current participants: Samie, Tubby, Lobo, Kloppagetime, Betty Blue, Hellrazor, Stockholm Syndrome, Elzar, Wullie, Lawnmowerman, XabiArt, Max Powers

This will be a Sheep Draft - each participant will have 24 hours to submit a pick to me via PM according to the criteria I choose (it will loosely follow the traditional survivor series team).

If two people submit the same pick, that wrestler will be disqualified entirely and they will have to submit another pick during the next round. Eventually we will end up with a team of 5 wrestlers each, and the voting can begin.

How does one get Giant Gonzalez into my stable with a sheep draft?

Don't worry bud, I have a plan

Also worth noting: Only CM Punk and Brock (barely) have wrestled in the 2010s or later from the honor roll there.

Something Worse · « **Reply #4 on:** October 30, 2020, 10:04:31 pm »

I've PMed 11 former participants!

Yup, anyone I could find who is still active and took part in one of the last two. Although I'm pretty sure that one guy with the super long username has blocked me haha

All the more reason to get him on board. Nothing like a proper grudge match.

Samie · « **Reply #12 on:** October 30, 2020, 10:55:58 pm »

I've PM'd him.

Sure count me in. The sheep draft will work well for me.

Something Worse · « **Reply #22 on:** October 31, 2020, 07:44:54 pm »

Chakan has opted out, no hard feelings. Max and Xabi are big pickups!

Something Worse · « **Reply #23 on:** October 31, 2020, 11:59:16 pm »

12 people is good, not sure we'll get to 16

Going to take a break this year, the lockdown stuff has got me feeling down. I'll still vote though!

What better way to recover than by watching promos of 90s superstars!

Thinking I'll get this started tomorrow. To give you all a headstart the first round will be your team leader/captain

Wrestlers who were world champion in two major promotions

That means NWA, WWF, AWA, WCW, TNA, AEW, ECW, plus any major foreign promotion. We will be using wikipedia as our final decision maker on such things.

Samie · « **Reply #28 on:** November 1, 2020, 04:32:13 pm »

We're actually counting TNA and AEW?

tubby · « **Reply #29 on:** November 1, 2020, 04:34:01 pm »

World champion in two major promotions is going to rule out some of the heaviest hitters for the team leader.

Samie · « **Reply #30 on:** November 1, 2020, 04:37:37 pm »

Just make it world champions in WWF/E and WCW Clauster.

tubby · « **Reply #31 on:** November 1, 2020, 04:46:50 pm »

Or maybe people who have won at least 2 world titles but can be for the same company.

I don't mind switching it to this but I do think there's too many people. We need a reduced pool of talent or the sheep part won't work

So you meant people who've won titles belonging to another promotion as well? Rock never won the WCW title in WCW, only in WWF, for example.

Yeah but he was the WCW champion. You've ruined my technicaliteh that I was counting on for fuckery!

Want me to switch it to just NWA/WCW/WWE then?
