Japan is not on the list as any new Japanese talent is his to pick from... however, if Gordi would like to get some full time US Talent as rookies, I am sure we could work those parameters out. The last draft was a dispersal draft and he hasn't been part of the fresh face. As he pointed out, Sasaki and Hase are both rookies and will go directly to JWA. Does that seem best or should we change it?

That sounds right to me. It makes sense that dojo graduates would start out in Japan. If I want to bring, say, Doug Furnas over for a tour or two, I can always negotiate with whoever drafts him. Likewise if any other promotions want to bring in Kensuke or Hase.

 

Technically, Hase started out working for Colon in Puerto Rico (and then Stu Hart in Canada), so if Dexstar wants to bring him over for a run I am sure we can work that out.

 

He also got a huge push right away after returning to Japan. Not sure if I'm going to copy that or not. Probably not.

I'm curious to see who will be drafted first. Obviously, should Jerry Lawler & The Rock N' Roll Express being placed in that draft, it's gonna change some priorities for several promotions but I already have a couple of guys in that list that I want and hoping they'll be available at the right position.

I have trades from earlier with Lutte for their first round pick, Continental for their first round pick which was swapped with MACW first round pick.

 

Too clear that up, I have the 2,3 and 5 pick in round 1 and my own in rounds 2 and 3

 

 

From my notes, you traded your second round pick to Lutte... so you wouldn't have any in the 2nd.

At this point, this is what I have and can change....
