Haha, can't say I am disappointed. He was doing my tree in.

GCB I hear what you're saying. I had a bit of a review going for you but ran out of time, will get to it soon. Going to have to pop some more reviews around also.

I think if everybody makes a little bit of effort with reviews, it will keep people motivated. They've just dropped off a little of late.

Yeah, will get to some reviewing. School hasn't been that busy. Thank God. Anyway, looks like I can enter the tournament after all.

On a side note, what happened to wrestlingfan?

Nice one. As for wrestlingfan, I'm sure I'm not the only one who could not give a damn. He refused to accept the help he was given and I hope we don't see him around BT no more to be honest.

After such a hold up, finally posted the freaking draft. Probably going to do the Supplemental Draft Thursday if I can get time Monday night/Tuesday morning. Would love to have someone join me as an "expert" analyst. Would be like the WWE.com supp draft. Hell maybe I'll include some interviews from superstars for shits and giggles.

Loved the draft show, Theo, extremely well written. Not convinced by your drafts to SMACKDOWN but the show was good. Loving the angle with CM Punk. I'll be around on Thursday most probably so I'll comment on the draft as you do it ...

Do we celebrate the banning of wrestlingfan today or tomorrow?

You're going to miss him most, I think, Proph!

@Peep
Cheers for the review for RAW and SMACKDOWN. It's so infuriating that I know the bigger pictures that I am planting. Looking at it from your POV, I understand the odd thing that you don't like but knowing what is coming makes it more difficult for me to accept them. I can't really argue them without giving Vengeance away or even giving the 'Road to WrestleMania' away. Kurt Angle's return is something I just wanted to do so I decided to ignore the 'realism' fact that he probably wouldn't come back and go for it. It's another big name, it's a guy I think I have good storylines for etc ... Interesting comments re: Drew McIntyre, watch the Slammy Award show for more on him.

There are a few superstars who I just really can't get sorted in my BT. Dolph Ziggler is one, Jack Swagger is another. They are both guys I enjoy watching in the WWE but I can't unlock them in my BT, I can't think of how to build them. Ziggler is going in NXT now and I'm open on who will win and lose it, if I can get to grips with Dolph in NXT, he should survive. If I can't, he will leave. What I am intending to do in NXT is find a way to write for these guys, same with Kaval, and hopefully unlock a story in them and give them a boost. Same with the two that join NXT in the Slammy Awards show. Hope you'll enjoy NXT once it starts.

Speaking of Slammy Award shows: (1) it should be posted later today and (2) how difficult is it to write a three hour show when there are a lot of promos? I wonder if Theo just found that with the Draft? I feel as if I am repeating things with the crowd reactions, there are so many promos in a Slammy Award show. Usually I enjoy the promos more than the matches but I'm actually looking forward to writing the matches more in this show!

P.S. 67 views away from being the first BT ever to reach 10,000!
 
I look forward to seeing it GCB.

I can see how you feel about the three SD draft picks being the same, but the three men will go in very different directions to real life.

I hope so. That's my biggest criticism of your shows so far is the similarity to the real life WWE. If they go different directions, it'll stay fresh, it just worried me to see the same three guys that went to SMACKDOWN for real go over in your BT as well!

Remember, I said that you were wrong to go with E&C though. What do I know?! :shrug:
 
Edge vs Christian still sucks.

Watching Shawn Michaels vs Bret Hart @ Survivor Series 1997, god Shawn was a great heel. To bad the guy could never draw.
 
I really, REALLY hate the "Too bad he couldn't draw" argument, it is a flawed argument in my eyes because you cant compare era's perfectly. We know a guy from a more modern medium of wrestling aka the Attitutde or PG era of wrestling will out draw a wrestler from the 80's or early nineties because one era had more taping's, shows and event while the other didn't... and to say that HBK couldn't draw is ridiculous mainly because he was a main event wrestler in over three different era's of wrestling lol!

I see that feds with created wrestlers in them are allowed around here but what do you guys personally think of them? I have been on forums where people hardly read them because the fed didn't use real people and they felt they couldn't connect with them, which I think is a bullshit argument coming from a group of creative people anyway lol!
 
Sometime tonight I'm gonna go out and give out a handful of reviews. GCB and Proph are at the top of the list. I keep holding off on giving them out and then they slip my mind. I feel terrible seeing as I haven't shelled out a review to either of you two in ages.
 
With just 22 more views needed for 10,000, GCB is about to post the Slammy Award Monday Night RAW 3-hour special to smash the 10,000 barrier ... Woop!

Just because you're wrong about WrestleMania!

I told you all along that you were wrong. Well, I hinted at it. I have much, much bigger plans for WrestleMania!

For anyone who hasn't checked out RAW don't click the spoiler.

But a match at Vengeance. It just seems to be such a small event for a major match. You have Cena as a heel going against Orton. You don't get much bigger then that. I just thought it would be a big match that you would give more time. It doesn't have that big match feel when it takes place at Vengeance.

I loved RAW though man. Good job and congratulations on breaking the 10,000 view mark.

Cheers mate, hopefully you're not far behind.

All my PPV's are huge, man. Including Vengeance. Where else could I do it? Like I say, I have other plans for WrestleMania. I need them both in the Royal Rumble. It had to be Vengeance. What do you think about Triple H and Sheamus in the Last Man Standing? I've gotten a little bit of grief re: their feud BUT this is the last match and I wanted to give it one last match with something on the line.

The biggest problem I have with Sheamus and Triple H is that we keep seeing the same thing. Triple H keeps returning after Sheamus beats him up. It makes Sheamus look weak and worthless. His attacks only keep Triple H down for a week.
 
For anyone interested in participating in my live discussion type thing you can PM me answer these questions and I'll include them throughout it.

Superstars you want to see drafted at the Supplemental Draft:
Thoughts on the Draft on Raw:
Who needs a move the most that is available:
Who from the draft on Raw is going to benefit the most from switching brands:
Of those that moved Monday who are you most looking forward to seeing:

Any and all input would be fabulous.
 
The deed is done. Bad match. Actually, more stupid than bad. I actually did mark out for HHH's punt, that was probably the only upside to the match. Overall, it just didn't make sense, and I'm ready to re-write it.
