Heel/face aligments, teams, etc are fine imo. but multiple gimmicks from different companies is past that imo. I'd even say you'd have leeway with 1997 Mankind when he did Mankind, Cactus Jack and Dude love all at the same timeTrue, but no one else could select Issac since Kane is gone right? I agree we have to be clear which iteration we draft, but there is wiggle room with what we want to do with a given guy. Like Heel/Face alignments, teams, managers and gimmicks.
Selecting '95 Yankem would just give you an unproven and less impressive version of Kane in my eyes.
