I might have missed it somewhere, but do we have definitions for which weights fall into Heavyweight and Cruiserweight classes in the GWF? Also, are there other weight classes?
Thanks in advance!

no other weight classes and the cruiserweight limit I don't think was specified but I may simply have forgotten it all these years later.

Remember, at the time that the original crusierweight division was started (CPC 2105) cards did not have weights listed on them. If I remember, I usually looked at it from an agility standpoint and strength standpoint. Someone with a 0 agility could be a "crusierweigtht" if they had a +1 or greater strength. Otherwise, negative agility of -3 or greater with a 0 strength would be the limit for a 0 strength, and a + strength with a negative or 0 agility also worked. I'll note that things became a lot easier once the GWF files was released, which I believe added weights to character bios. Honestly, if you are looking - do what you think best, I'd set it at the Enigma/Prodigy/Rising Sun - whoever is the heaviest of those three - set that as the upper limit and go from there. I believe the COTGWiki on Filsinger Games Online also lists wrestler weights. |

I remember 240 being the limit for cruiserweights, though I'm not sure where that was stated.
At the time the GWF Promoter newsletter had an annual insert featuring heights, weights, years in the GWF, etc. That evolved into the GWF Files and COTGWiki. Otherwise, I'd say it's safe to go with the smaller or more agile wrestlers. Or go with more of an X Divison style - not weight limits, but no limits.

240 does sound about right. Mind, I saw people use high agility people who weighed more (Wolf being the one who comes to mind)

240 was the original weight limit, and the title was introduced along with Lycosa, though I think Prodigy was meant to be the CPC's Cruiserweight "ace." But you had to be a Promoter subscriber to have "official" heights and weights.

Oooh, I thought the Heights and Weights were standard on the cards above the Offensive/Defensive charts as shown in the card stats on ctogonline galleries. I always wondered why the card loses that height/weight/territory part when fighting matches in ctogonline. Thanks for the responses everyone. I guess I won't worry about it yet until I get to 2105...
