Too soon? I say NEVER!
Any thoughts on possible themes, wrestlers and/or new signings?
I know it's not an original idea by any stretch, but my mind jumps to a WWF Legends set right away...
Rick Rude Don Muraco Ace Cowboy Bob Orton Quebecers - Jacques Rougeau Quebecers - Carl Oulette One Man Gang George Steele Koko B. Ware Davey Boy Smith - We've got the son, why not the father? Jake 'the Snake' Roberts - Ok... I know this is unlikely, but I needed a second 'new signing' to complete the set.
Special Editions: Jimmy Hart manager card Mr. Fuji manager card Roddy Piper - Not a new card since he's not actually signed, but a colorized version of the original.

Have to figure WWF will come sooner or later but the question is...do you do it by a particular era or a broader version. We'll see what the LOW gang has in mind soon enough I'm sure.

I would definitely think that a WWF-ish set would be likely for the next release. And that is definitely my desire, as well.
I like your list, but I will make a few alterations for my guesses:
1. Rick Rude - (a must) 2. Don Muraco - (also a must) 3. Cowboy Bob Orton - (You guessed it... a must) 4. Davey-Boy Smith - (a good guess, although I would prefer to get him as the Bulldogs along with Dynamite) 5. Jacques Rougeau 6. Carl Oulette 7. Bruno Sammartino - (Why not shoot for the moon?) 8. Tony Atlas 9. Hillbilly Jim 10.George Steele
Special Editions:
1. Jimmy Hart manager 2. Captain Lou manager
Special gift:
1. Piper colorized.
Alternates for the new names:
1. Paul Orndorff 2. Tito Santana
(Both are huge wants of mine)

I'd love the Bulldogs as a team but I would be shocked if Kid was signed in any way.

I would think '80s WWF would be a fairly popular option. I'd love a WCW themed set with Konnan, Buff Bagwell, PN News, Lash Leroux... Other than hopefully a couple of new signings the rest would be guys that wrestled in WCW but could also easily fit into another fed themed set like Kevin Sullivan, 2 Cold Scorpio, The Patriot, One Man Gang, etc.
I'd also be very cool with anything vintage, whether that be early 1900s, 1930s, 1950s or some combination of all of the above.
A lot less likely but also very interesting to me would be a cruiserweight / junior heavyweight / light heavyweight type of set. Could feature guys like Super Crazy, Mikey Whipwreck, Danny Hodge.
It all depends on what new signings there are though, doesn't it?

I honestly just want Mike Awesome and more lucha legends. Give me that L.A. Park card.

Have to figure WWF will come sooner or later but the question is...do you do it by a particular era or a broader version. We'll see what the LOW gang has in mind soon enough I'm sure. My guess is that it would depend on who the "new" names are. If you manage to land Bruno or Backlund, then concentrate on the '70s and prior, and maybe a few later names to fill the roster out. If it's Davey Boy, Jake, Santana, or someone else, then yeah, focus on that era.
