WWE Game XVI: Nitro Vol. 3

[BlowUpYourVideo]

I guess the "And I quote" makes it official.

MizDisaster picks Alicia Fox.

[Hammy]

miss_perfection takes heath slater.

[EricxGNRxSTARx]

I should just take Trips. He will  probably get more points in his time back than anyone I could take now. With hopes of tag team gold I take Joey Mercury.

[Hammy]

Yankee1012 takes Otunga.

[MsZigzag]

well i guess i'll pick another smackdown guy....curt hawkins

[nightrain]

Triple H

[BlowUpYourVideo]

Wow, seems we will finish the draft for the start of the game.

And we can still beat the Oldies' League at finishing the drafting!

[slashsfro]

Love the last 2 nightrain picks.  Big Show is a proven scorer and Triple H is a good gamble with the last pick.

We only got one more guy drafting though.  I think we'll finish drafting first in the end.

[MizDisaster]

Now that the draft is almost done I think I was in the middle of two good pickers and they kept taking who I was looking for.

BlowUpYourVideo: The Miz, David Hart Smith, Kane, MVP, Luke Gallows
MizDisaster: Daniel Bryan, Tyson Kidd, Chris Jericho, Layla, Alicia Fox
EricxGNRxSTARx: John Cena, Kofi Kingston, Michelle McCool, Michael McGillicutty, Joseph Mercury

I was very happy with Daniel Bryan after seeing Summer Slam I think WWE has big plans for him.

I kinda was hoping Kofi would of fallen one more spot. He was taken first in the other game and he is always on TV.

Kinda felt I had to take 1 of the Tag Champs as it seems they are enjoying the biggest push of their career thanks to Bret coming back to WWE TV.
Thinking about Kane as he is a world Champion and I feel WWE is going to have him win a few matches first and beat the Undertaker Once.

So then I heard Jericho has a DVD coming out and I thought they usually push the talent to help sell the DVD and Im told now that he's leaving.


Then Michael from NXT falls one place short, Im not an expert but I have been following NXT and I cant see Kaval winning as
there is nothing for WWE to do with him without a cruiserwight title/division, and Miz's rookie, seems like he is the renegade
to the Miz being the Ultimate Warrior, as in being a Bad Rip off so there can't be any way for Mike to loose here.

Took Layla as being half the champ is better then nothing, hoping she makes it onto a few tv and ppvs.

MVP and Gallows, I would of been happy with either guy on my team as if SES does win the tag gold as rumoured I assume it will be Gallows/Mercury or Gallows/Punk
So I thought he would be a solide pick, MVP seams to have his ups and downs but might make his way onto a PPV. Not too sure on Mercury so I picked Fox

I felt Fox was a given for a rematch at Night of Champions against Melina and Also being the top heel I can see some TV matches between the two.

I see "blowupyourvideo" has one of the best teams in US Champ/Case Holder, Tag Champ, World Champ, Contender for Tag in SES and MVP solid team.

I think Yankee has one of the least likeable teams, He has all 3 members of Legacy, Ted Jr seems to be on jobber, patrol, cody is given grooming tips instead of wrestling,
I can't see RKO having world gold this game, I could see him winning and Miz stealing it, Swagger seems like he is on Hardy patrol after being a world champion he seems
to be flushed away, Otunga seems like he would be good but how often will he wrestle?



What does everyone else think?

[Yankee1012]

Rhodes is on a winning streak I believe. It is only a matter of time before he gets into a feud with someone.

I took Dibiase because once Smackdown gets a few guys from RAW, then he will begin to rise. I do not think he was involved with Orton and Morrison for nothing. WWE is high on Swagger, and that leads me to think he will start winning more matches etc. Otunga could be involved in a tag match at NOC for the titles. Orton will win the title soon because of how popular he is. It would surprise me if he did not win the belt by Survivor Series.

We will see. I think I could have done better, but I don't think I did bad.

[BlowUpYourVideo]

Well, I have three champions and it could either be very good or very bad that NOC is coming up soon. I can't remember the last time Miz defended the US Title, it's like they forgot about it after he won that damn briefcase. Not sure whether that points to him losing or retaining at the PPV.... Kane I think will hold the World Title a bit longer, but I very much doubt he'll keep it until the end of the year. As for Smith, I think they'll stay champs for a little while longer, though they have had them since April. Mind you, I won Hawkins and Archer last time, hoping they'd be Tag Champs....

It's been a while since I've had The Artist Formerly Known As Festus on my team. We'll see how that goes.......

There's a few good teams, thanks to there being less players in the league. Eric, nightrain and timothy stand out at first. MizDisaster's might depend on what they do with Bryan and whether or not they give him the US Title (which I very much hope they don't ). I also think my mine looks not bad on the whole. *crosses fingers*

[Mallrat]

Evan Bourne for me.

Timothy is going to make it online to pick so he ask me to post his. ... Matt Hardy for him.
