The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

Morrison!

Get in. I only need Taker and Christian to move now and I've got 5 out of 5.

#17 Natalya to ECW

I thought she was already on ECW with Alex Wright?

[Adam Pollard]

The next pick will be No. 17 .... We will not have any more than 25 picks, the GMs have promised.

WUT.

They want us to believe the GMs are CHOOSING these guys? Way to bury your on screen authority figures! Unless they are trying to give Tiffany a completely incompetant blonde bimbo gimmick which leaves her having her best wrestlers being drafted. Why has she not gone "Yeah, I'll have like John Cena, Shawn Micheals and Undertaker kthnxbi."

[Adam Pollard]

Festus to Raw.

TAG TEAM WRESTLING AM CRY.

[sw26]

I haven't watched Smackdown in an absolute age - is Festus still doing that stupid bell ringing gimmick?

Bloody hell.

"15. John Morrison to Smackdown (from ECW): I love it. Morrison could have been a big fish in the small pond known as ECW, but I'd rather see him get a real chance on one of the big shows. I suppose it's worth noting that his former valet Melina is also on Smackdown, so an on-air reunion is at least possible."

JTG to Smackdown to put Cryme Tyme back together.

The well-documented war of words between Hulk and Linda Hogan has taken an ugly turn. The New York Post has some quotes from a recent interview Hogan did with Rolling Stone magazine where he talks about understanding how O.J. Simpson could [allegedly] murder his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson.

Linda Hogan walked out on Hogan last year, filed for divorce, forced him out of his $18 million mansion, allegedly started spending the couple's money at the rate of $40,000 a month and is dating "some shaggy-haired pool boy 30 years her junior."

Hogan tells Rolling Stone, "I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody's throat. You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it."

Dolph Ziggler to Smackdown (no surprise really, having seen the SD spoilers.)

I bet if Hogan sees this 19 year old boy doing his moustache sniffing bit he'll go absolutely batshit mental.

'No one else get's to go down on my wife'

4 more picks left.

[Adam Pollard]

Corey Clayton: We just received word from the GMs that we will have one extra pick added. So we've got 24 picks total. So FOUR more to go.

This is so painfully obviously being done totally half arsedly on the fly. Logically doing 24 means that each brand should have eight picks, so what's it standing like at the mo?

Raw: SEVEN
ECW: FOUR
Smackdown: NINE

Kendrick to Raw.

[Adam Pollard]

Charlie Haas to Smackdown.

Reformation of The Worlds Greatest Tag Team on the cards?

[Adam Pollard]

Hurricane Helms to ECW

[Adam Pollard]

The final draft pick...



















































































Brie strawberry floating Bella.

Yep.

Bloody hell.

Wanna see how that should be done? (no) see Delerious

[Zellery]

3/5 for me in the end. Not a bad score but I could have done better if I didn't switch Triple H for Kofi Kingston

Surprised Evan Bourne didn't move to be honest.

[Mockmaster]

"Wow, way to save that big pick for last, WWE. Yawn. The Bellas are back together again. You had to see that one coming since their entire gimmick is that they are twins. I would have saved the Kendrick or Helms pick for last or maybe even started with one of those guys and closed with Kennedy. Looks like the announcers all stay put. Too bad. Jim Ross and Matt Striker deserve better. Thanks for following along with the supplemental draft coverage here on Dot Net."
