El Boricua Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think we're going a bit cart before the horse here with Portland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 This is why I just wanted it to merge with Vancouver. It is close in proximity and people are already trying to grab wrestlers, like fighting over a wishbone at Thanksgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goc Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 This is why I just wanted it to merge with Vancouver. It is close in proximity and people are already trying to grab wrestlers, like fighting over a wishbone at Thanksgiving. Yea but Wahoos Leg suddenly getting 22 extra people on his roster isn't really a good solution either. We already have the August newcomers thing that can serve as a way to disperse the Portland roster (assuming Matt D doesn't want to just take it over and delay shows until August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I'd be happy to do it(starting the second week of August) only if: A) No one who doesn't have a territory already wants it now. (Were that the case, I'd even be glad to help that person out come August). B ) it'd be understood that mainly I'd be doing it to hold the roster together, because it's a great roster, on the idea that Dylan will want it back at some point. I'd be more than happy to step aside at that point and he could deal with the mess I made with the territory. C) Said Mr. Hales doesn't hold the entire situation against me for three years. (Just saying). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Well B seems unlikely and C might not even have that good of an outlook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 If Dylan is unlikely to return AND Matt is only doing it to keep the roster warm, we should put that roster into a special draft. It can happen in the last week of July and new additions to the rosters are implemented August 1. Random drawing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I can keep the roster warm indefinitely. You know, if I have to. It's Portland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I can keep the roster warm indefinitely. You know, if I have to. It's Portland. Disappointing....in the sense that those guys aren't going to be available. But yeah unless someone serious pops in in the next month, you should take over Portland. Until then, Portland guys should be freelancers? Maybe even for that it should be a random draft where people get first dibs on a worker or two and some dates.

El Boricua Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Someone can take Portland. Don't ask. That's a bummer, I was really looking forward to your take on Portland. No chance of you changing your mind? I'd recommend leaving Portland as is for now while the smoke clears. It's a little bit late to shift wrestlers around, but still early enough for the territory to start up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Which again, I would be totally happy with. If someone wants to dive in, please, don't let me get in the way (and like I said, I'll even try to help when I can if the person wants it).

dawho5 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I say we leave it until the second week of August. If it is open at that point Matt is free to take it. If somebody steps up in the meantime that works fine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowBlowPodcast Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Can the two guys that Dylan and I share just go to my roster? Just for opinion's sake, would you be willing to give up two guys from your roster in order to get them full time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Can the two guys that Dylan and I share just go to my roster? Ben Bassarab is your draft pick so I'm not sure why you even need to ask about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 It comes down to who has the "written" type of a contract. If Portland has the "rights" they should go to draft, but if they are an "open" contract, it is a loss for that promotion. Again, this is just the opinion of one person and after going through some stuff like this before, it will be good to have a precedent set early.

El Boricua Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Bassarab is Toronto's, he was drafted by them so he stays put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Why don't we just let things stay the way they are with Portland going over to Matt in August if they are still unclaimed? I would guess Matt intends to honor the deal with Toronto as far as sharing, but if he isn't that's in August. Just play it like nothing has changed because in the long run it's going to still be an occupied territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 I will officially take my name out of the running.

dedhemingway Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Might be a day late on my show. Depends how much energy I have when I get home this evening. Have tomorrow off, though, so it'd be up then, at the latest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
