... the lack of Native American wrestlers in LOW?
It's almost hard to believe we haven't seen any yet considering how many there were and how many cards are in the game.
Kinda wanted a classic Indian character for a story line and there are none...

Well, if you want to be technical about it, Jim Brunzell is of native American ancestry but I know that's not what you mean. Little Beaver is there too, but again not quite what you had in mind.
Anyway, who are the strongest candidates out there? Jack and Jerry Brisco Tatanka Wahoo McDaniel ...Woody Strode, maybe? He'd be a real interesting one.
Then there are guys who weren't Native American, but used that gimmick: Jay Strongbow Jules Strongbow Mark and Jay Youngblood Billy White Wolf (although he'd probably get a card as Adnan Al-Kassie)
I think Tatanka may be the most likely one of the bunch. Wahoo would be the one I'd most like to see.

Right. Mostly looking for an Indian gimmick.
Yeah it's funny how most of the guys portraying the traditional 'Indians' weren't. And yet Woody essentially portrayed a black man.
So, as far as the gimmick goes, the Strongbows and the Youngbloods are who interest me.
But I would take Wahoo or Jack Brisco over most anyone.

The Youngbloods were Hispanic, I meet Mark's daughter. I am surprised Tatanka is not in the game as it seems right up his ally of things to do.

There was a guy in early 1990s WCW that wrestled as Charlie Norris and did a very poor Tatanka impersonation.
Alere Little Feather is also in the game, for the record.

I want a card of Alere from her WEW days as Nav-a-Ho. For the longest time I thought she was totally working a gimmick but I guess she is NA.

I think Alere's card works fine as Nav-a-ho. A separate card would be of even less strength for that gimmick.

A look at Tatanka's website makes me believe he would want money. I thought you were probably kidding about a card for Nav-a-ho, but so many people say they want all these different alternate cards you never know.
