[Sportsguy]

Myself and Angle

[DevSop]

This is so tough. I think I'm leaning towards SG and Angle, but Dead is really close. I'm not gonna vote yet.

[Tommy]

DDP isn't in enough matches, and he's not facing enough opponents.

But other than that.

People's Champion vs. People's Champion. Dead should be winning this in a walk.

[DevSop]

Went with Angle and SG for now, but I can be swayed here. All three cards are solid, but there negatives on all of them as well. Sway me and I might consider changing.

[Sportsguy]

I'll say two things in my defense:
1. This is a wrestling board, and I have more pure, better wrestling on my card than either of my opponets (No offense to either one of you)
2. My card might look random now, but when I get to the second round things will start making a bit more sense.

[DevSop]

You think logic will influence people's votes...you are surely in the wrong place SG.

[Batman]

Angle and Dead.

[Sportsguy]

I have faith that people will see the workrate potential in my fed Dev.

[DevSop]

You're going to be disappointed. Just a warning.

[Demko]

Maybe give us some results that tie things together a little better for the 2nd card, SG?

[Batman]

Yup, that might sway me as well.

[Mr. Dashbee]

Either of Angle's cards beats out the other two. I can see some future booking potential on SG's card, so we'll need to take a "wait & see approach there." I don't like SG's main event at all.

But I asked myself "if you had free tickets to both SD's & Dead's, but they were on the same night, same time, and 200 miles apart, which would you go to?" Sportsguy's.

[Byrntrigan]

If Lex Luger is killed and run over repeatedly by the All-American Express then you have more vote.

[Lucky]

I too need to be convinced for sg. I dig the Los Gringos Locos idea and I didn't even realize he had drafted Kai En Tai completely but I always really hated Chetti so he just about ruins that match for me. Other than that the only undercard match I'd watch on Youtube would be Blackjacks vs Furnas/Lafon, and I can't say that seems like a match either one is well suited for. And that main event is just one giant "WHY?!" I see the potential there as a preliminary card but man, that's a lineup I just don't want to see one little bit. And I can't in good conscience vote against a better card because sg might have been holding back a better card.

Fortunately for him I'm not sure he's facing 2 better cards. Angle's isn't bad or anything but just feels like a mashing of any random puro and indy card in 2009, with 2 notable exceptions just sticking out. Eddie/Piper really does nothing for me with two guys I like tons. And the rest... its not that its a problem to feel like something I could see... its that I'm not going out and buying that ZERO 1 USA DVD or NOAH stuff so maybe I just don't really want to watch it all that much.

And Dead's is just... I don't know. I can't remember who it was he drafted that we were sitting in chat thinking "I hope he doesn't put him against Taz because that would be a waste"... but whoever it was I wish he had done that instead of Taz/Luger. Because, wow. I wouldn't want to watch that if you paid me. And I'm probably one of the few people here who sees genuine value in Lex and doesn't want him dead because people see him as an easy scape goat for the death of someone they loved so don't want to hold accountable. But wow... Taz/Lex. Dead must do a lot of drugs.

That card's like "Rock/DDP and then a lot of stuff I don't want to see, including like 20 DDP matches I don't want to see before I get the one I do want to see." That's like a really bad 1999 3 hour Nitro where I just expect when DDP finally gets to the main event Hogan Rock will just get DQed.

[Eric O'Mac]

I'm shocked that SG is getting a bum rap here. I don't understand it. His undercard might need some fleshing out - but his main event is solid stuff. Best pure wrestling in the entire draft, in my opinion.

But it doesn't help he's up against two other strong competitors. Dead's got a solid lineup, even if I don't want to see DDP wrestling 3 times in one night.

AF has a solid lineup too, but aside from the main event and the Rude-Petey match, it seems very "indy" like. And as much as I like Piper and Guerrero, I don't think they would mesh that well.

Sorry, AF. You might make it through this round and be paired up against some other cards I dislike that will get through, but I can't vote for you here. It's a shame, because I feel that all 3 cards are worthy of moving on.

[Deadly]

Yeah, I know I have DDP in there a lot, but the idea is that Rock has essentially been ducking him for a year. DDP finally gets his shot, but it's not without some crazy stipulations.

And I'm voting for myself and Anglefan, because he picked a lot of the same guys I had last year.

His main event has the same problem as yours--a bunch of great guys thrown together with no established storylines or feuds. he just didn't have the luck to draw Gator and have a chance to build up feuds in the next round.

Eric, the card in the first post is not mine. Read the post below it.

[Lucky]

What Serg said. I LOVE sg's talent pool. Considering how many times I cursed at him during the draft I should. What I don't like are the matchups and the big giant main event that seems like you're losing great talents when they're better off somewhere else. And he doesn't need to justify that to me because I get that this is his first card he's hoping to skate on, but still. I can only judge so much on potential out of fairness.
