Back in April we had our "Matt Hardy's Not Getting Draft" Fantasy Draft. We went ten rounds on the air, and picked 30 of the best and brightest talents in the WWE, TNA, ROH, NJPW, and beyond. We each picked a ring announcer, a broadcast team, and a senior official, so as to give our rosters added depth. Well today Matt S and I are picking up where we left off, to see who has the strongest team three months later. Here's a quick look at our rosters—let us know who you think is doing the best.

Warning: Gary did not understand the assignment.

"PG" Matt S wanted a roster comprised of wrestlers doing what they do best—wrestle. But he also wanted to cast some of the best talkers in the business as well! We were all given the chance to pick our home venue, and Matt S picked one of the largest, most recognizable stadiums in the world. Not only that, but he's the only person who picked an actual referee instead of a one-time guest referee.

I named my company S.C.R.E.W., because goofy names seem to be all the rage on the indie scene. My promotion is based in Southern California, and features the most non- WWE Superstars out of the three rosters. I feel like I took this shit too seriously.

Okay so Gary went a different direction than everybody else. Instead of assembling a roster of wrestlers, he decided to cast a G.I. Joe style Saturday Morning cartoon. It features the ongoing battles between the heroic FACE FORCE , and the diabolical H.E.E.L. I'm not sure how he plans to implement his broadcast team, or ring announcer, but his referee is on point. In addition to Gary's picks, I've added a brief description of how he plans to cast them on his show.
