Female competitors continue to fly off the board with three more going in the fifth round, as well as the first half of a clear tag team being chosen. John finally grabs a talent able to match up with AJ Styles for a 6-8 month program, and Eron nabs the recent New Japan Cup winner Katsuyori Shibata.
Best Pick (according to Tim): Once again, I go to a pick that I was hoping would stand for one more round, only to see Eron take Katsuyori Shibata immediately after I stake my claim for The Young Bucks. Shibata is an absolute stud in any country, as we’ve seen with his ventures to Europe and even the United States for independent promotions. He’s a huge value at this point.
Worst Pick (according to Tim): Baron Corbin will be a real player at some point in his career, but I’m not ready to consider him a top-40 talent at this point. A bit too early for “The Lone Wolf” in my opinion.
