I agree there are too many at the moment with a basketball theme.
Each are unique.
I like it when different. I love Redz draft. Completely random with the best video clips.
I like that there was a soccer one (even if I know nothing and did not follow)
Would still love to make a Pro-Wrestling one (I have ideas but no time at the moment)
I loved the Soccer All Time Draft. Would have participated as well if I knew more.
I was hoping that there was a Hockey or Football of it as well.
The random draft was awesome too.
AND SIGN ME UP FOR PRO WRESTLING.
Now the wrestling one is one I could get down with!
I have no idea what others ideas for it are, but I could see something where everybody has to build a card of like 6-8 matches. It’d be like a cross between the historical draft and the pub draft.
Draft one specialty match: (steel cage, hell in a cell, I quit, scaffold, ladder, etc.)
Draft one special guest referee
Draft 2 celebrities (one for each corner)
(maybe draft venues, managers, announcers, screw job finishes, etc. but those could be smaller lists to effectively pick from)
Then draft wrestlers from different eras: ’87 Hogan, ’11 CM Punk, ’87 Ricky Steamboat, ’13 Daniel Bryan, ’99 Stone Cold, ’00 Rock, ’88 Demolition, ’82 Jimmy Snuka, etc., and build your matches and book your finishes, all while working in time constraints (hey if you want an epic hour long match between ’85 Ric Flair and ’94 Bret Hart, other people have to have short matches to fit it all in your show).
Questions I don’t know how to answer:
Can the same wrestler with different gimmicks be drafted (Diesel vs Kevin Nash, Kane vs Isaac Yankem)? How do you handle tag teams? Can you draft Team Hell No taking both Kane and Bryan off the table? If someone has drafted Shawn Michaels, can I still draft the Rockers? (To answer my own question, I’m thinking yes you can draft the same person if he was a completely different character/name, just can’t have them on the same card. And a tag team as well a singles wrestler from that same tag team can be drafted separately by different people, but if you draft the tag team they have to be on your card as a tag team).
Like the historical and pub drafts, it would have to be a smaller draft, like maybe 8 participants max.
I know it’s not even my idea, just brain storming out loud, and maybe others don’t agree with my direction but I’m excited just thinking about it.
