Hey guys..it's been a while since i've seen or been in a History Draft which consists of past and present wrestling talents. If you're interested...the first 16 to join i'll sign you up!


Rules of the Draft :
- The draft will go in snake order
- ***You will have 12 HOURS to make your choice --NEW RULE 5/10/13
- *** If you get on this site, but fail to make a pick in two hours from that time, next person is up.-- NEW RULE 5/10/13
- If you miss your pick , you can make it up when you return.
- If you draft a wrestlter you draft all of his gimmicks. For example : If you draft Mick Foley you get every character he ever played like Mankind , Dude Love , Cactus Jack etc
- Anyone who has ever wrestled a match in any federation is eligible.
- Tag teams do not count as one pick , if you draft Titus O'Neil, you better hope no one else picks Darren Young lmao.
- You have 20 picks.(Does NOT include the manager/valet)
- Please dont make it a habit to continue missing picks , if you know you arent going to be on for awhile , PM me your picks to someone to make for you.

After the draft is over there will be a tournament where each participant will make a match card with the winner being determined by a poll.

Rules of the Match Cards :
- Your card must have 7 - 9 matches
- One 2 gimmick matches allowed per card (I dont count tag team , triple threat etc as gimmicks)
- Each wrestler can only be involved in one match on your card.
- When your card is complete , PM it to me and I will set up the matches.
- You dont have to write any storylines behind your card , just the matches are fine. If you want to though you are more than welcome to.

- The winning card will advance to the next round and be able to choose one wrestler from their opponents roster for the next round.


Again, First 16 to sign up!

I'm excited for this start, should be lot of fun

It'll be really fun and competitive to see which 20 stars of all time each person can take for their roster.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**For those who don't understand how this works, i'll simplify it: For Round 1 let's say obby chooses his wrestler, and The Fourth Wall chooses last (in that round)..THen to start off the 2nd round the Fourth Wall chooses first and obby chooses last in the second round, etc..

-Once a wrestler is picked, he can't get picked again. One wrestler like Mick Foley also counts for all his gimmicks like Mankind, etc...

--After drafting, players will make 7 - 9 matches. 2 gimmick matches are allowed per card (I dont count tag team , triple threat etc as gimmicks) - Each wrestler can only be involved in one match on your card. - When your card is complete , PM it to me and i will set up your matches. You dont have to write any storylines behind your card , just the matches are fine. If you want to though you are more than welcome to.

- The winning card will advance to the next round and be able to choose one wrestler from their opponents roster for the next round. The Wrestlingforum members vote for which list of matches they think is better. This will continue in tournament style, by poll.

- The voting process will go like this, a match will be up for 3 days, with one match overlapping on the last day of the previous match.

- The winner advances and the loser gets knocked out of the tournament.

-The winner also gets to pick ONE talent from the loser's list and must let go of one of his original members as well.

Also.. ~ - You must pick one manager or valet at some point in your drafting.

Okay let's get the show on the road!

Thanks to everyone for signing up! From here on out...if you want to discuss anything you can use this thread for that. Let's leave the "OFFICIAL DRAFT" thread for just our draft picks.

What i likely will do is have posters choose in the order they signed up. Therefore once i get the "OFFICIAL HISTORY DRAFT" thread going, i'll PM obby, who will have 24 hours to choose a wrestler. The 1st round will end with the poster iwatchwrestling who will choose first in the second round.

lol if the posters on here visit a few times a day, that definitely won't be a problem. i've been on drafts where there was 30 participants..and rarely did someone miss a 24 hour mark.....it'll take a while, yes..but we'll likely have quite a few people choosing a draft pick in a single day :cool:
