That sounds like a new wrestler: "The Slow Canadian." Kind of Eugene-like. ;)

1.07 Shawn Michaels
I've never really understood Michaels' popularity. While true he is an outstanding worker in the ring, why he generates such a pop is beyond me. I've never been a big fan, although like many here I have vague recollections of him wrestling as one of the "Midnight Rockers" on that really old wrestling show on ESPN where I first learned how to pronounce "Gagne".
A rumored move to Snoredown would seem to indicate WWE's "wisdom" that they need him over there to generate some new sparks and have new rivalries. I can't imagine him going there to suffer in the mid-card, so he should be good for a top 10-12 in total points this season. I would love it if he was my top scorer, but I doubt it.
2.07 Gene Snitsky
I don't like him either, but he was the highest scorer from last year available and figure after all of that push last year they're not going to let him just rot on the vine. He ought to be good for 350+ points this year, which isn't bad for someone who is basically my 5th scorer.

Hey, Justin has no problem with Bernie. You on the other hand... he'll need a little more gym time.
before I post it in the draft- does anyone have the wrestler "Melina" by any other name? I searched all three threads, and couldn't find him.
If no one has drafted/kept him, he will be my pick...

Melina is a SHE, and i believe she is the manager of MNM...

Farn's up. I took Billy Kidman.
My analysis...it seems everyone is getting a shot at the cruiserweight title. I have always liked Billy Kidman...so hopefully he can get his now too.

And with that, my draft is done, having traded my 4th rounder for Chris Masters.
Last years team (end year) RVD/UT/Reigns/Hurricane/Christy/Keibler/Kenzo and Puder
This years team (start) UT/Reigns/Christy/Keibler/Masters/Angle/Lita and Kidman
To end last year, I had 3 consistant scorers in UT/Reigns/Christy
To start this year, I can put out 6 with a healthy UT, and if UT is hurt, I can throw in Kidman in hopes of a match.
As much as my trades have backfired in the past, I feel like I'm sitting with my deepest lineup yet.

ROFL---thanks a LOT, Tree! Shaddup! He might have taken that "dude" Melina and Kidman could've been mine. A simple "No, nobody has Melina" would have sufficed!

I don't know how Rajah.com got this information about Trish & I's in-bed preferences, but since it's public....
WWE diva Trish Stratus gave a very revealing interview to Maxim Magazine. In the May issue she talks about how she likes it between the sheets: “Usually I like it nice and calm and I enjoy being in control. When I’m really into it/enjoying the sex I can moan pretty loudly, I can also go pretty long.” Does she shave? “I’d have to say I have a bush quite often. I guess I’ll get around to shaving/trimming once or twice a month. When I’m busy it could get pretty hairy down there.” Her favorite body-part: “I would have to say my ass. I like my breasts too but I just love my ass , it has always been my favourite and most sexy body part. It’s a great size and it’s very smooth , probably from all the years of working out!” Does she like getting naked? “Actually I walk around my house naked a lot. Especially when I come out of the shower I won’t put on clothes for a long time. Also when I’m taking off my clothes to get into the shower or changing I’ll stay naked for a while. I like being naked and I like body, sometimes when I’m in the mood I’ll just randomly take my clothes off and watch TV or do the laundry naked.”

I can't find anything on his long term status. I think he wants to stay but they want to hold off and see how this match goes and see what the response is.
If I get multiple PPVs out of him I'll be thrilled.

Bischoff returns for a third consecutive year(?) to team "This Reeks of Total Awesomeness". He's boring, but might get a PPV match and typically gets you 5-7 points a night. Can always cut him for a more upside guy if need be.

Crap. Totally forgot about Kenzo and held a faint hope T. Shane would still be there in Rd. 4.

I had trouble deciding on Kenzo versus Victoria. With Molly Holly leaving, and Trish hurting, I see Lita and Victoria getting decent TV time by default. Plus Victoria has always been a good wrestler, though that doesn't count for much.

I had him a couple of seasons ago. I like him, but yeah, he's kinda stale. I like the RAW aspect too. Not real sure where Kane stands value-wise right now.

Looks like the draft lasted shy of 72 hours. Is that good? What's the record for the fastest draft? Longest draft?
This may be a good time to discuss the pros and cons of having a draft like ours. For instance, what improvements, if any, would you like to see made? As for me, between my work schedule, family life and whatnot, it was a tad difficult finding time to "check my charts" (sorry GO...but that's a phrase that will live on in drafting lore), trying to make up my mind---a worthless exercise if there was ever one---and trying to figure out who was available that was any good. I don't think I ever did that though! ;)
Nevertheless, I had a very pleasant time. Outside of a couple verbal battles of manhoodology, I think our draft was quite the success. Congrats to all who have taken the time to construct, form and dedicate themselves to this worthy project.
I wish all of you a very successful and fun-packed Season V.
one think I'd like to see changed is that the league winner is automatically the last pick. (My proposal is not based on just this season, or any other in particular.)
I think the winner should have the same chance to move up in the draft as others. If he keeps 4 guys with 0 points that should be a factor. I say eliminate the rule that league champion must draft last and subject him (or her, although I doubt that's ever an issue) to the same drafting rules as everybody else.
