Tournament Master hinted in another post that the Gencon cards wouldn't be new personas, just alternate cards for two existing members of the LOW lineup. So no Masked Superstar as Ax or Mongol, no Aldo Montoya, ect. UWF Hacksaw Duggan would be cool. So would Curt Hennig sporting the Mr. Perfect look. They will be something along those lines, I'm sure. See, I think this card is basically Hennig's "Mr. Perfect" look. I thought I'd be more interesting to see a "fresh meat babyface" Curt Hennig from his Pacific Northwest days. That would be a totally new card.

Honestly, the mainstream audience would probably appreciate a longer haired Hennig in the singlet, maybe with the towel thrown over his shoulder. The moveset would be pretty similar though. A younger version of Hennig wouldn't do much for me unless he was one of "Gagne's Raiders" with a "Rambo Greg" to go with him!

One guy who I personally haven't mentioned wanting before, but really would love to have is... Sean Waltman.
He would be an excellent addition to any fed. In a cruiserweight division he would be great or aligned with the NAO, he would be incredible as well IMO.
I guess if in the game he would just be Sean Waltman, but with art reflecting "metalhead" as mentioned before, ala DX.
I dunno, would be nice tho.

I'd like him to be in if the art/stats reflected him as 1-2-3 (or Lightning, or Kamikaze) Kid. Wasn't a huge fan of Syxx/X-Pac/Syxx Pac. The one we've got reminds me more of his WCW days.

A younger version of Hennig wouldn't do much for me unless he was one of "Gagne's Raiders" with a "Rambo Greg" to go with him! Granted you're right about his moveset not being much different, it would be cool to get a version of Curt Hennig where the art reflects him from his first reign as Intercontinental Champion. Speaking of Hennig's first IC Title reign, has there been any attempt to get Tito Santana? Those two had awesome matches.

Yeah, Tito said no. Although today I just watched a video done by my friend's cousin and found out he lives in Jersey and owns a hair salon.
here is the video:
FYI, this guy Mark is currently living in an Airtran airplane for the month of June and has previously lived a week in an Ikea and visited all 171 Starbucks in Manhattan in 1 day. Crazy dude....funny, but crazy.

Yeah, Tito was one of the first guys to turn it down. KKB had given Tom the info and Tito was apparently not doing well that day as he didn't even remember King Kong.

I remember that story, Tito not "remembering" Bundy. I kinda find it a load of crap on Tito's part. I mean, Bundy headlined wrestlemania 2 around Tito's peak with the company. Ohhhh kay Tito.

Tom only used KKB's real name and Tito didn't know who he was talking about, the way I remember hearing the story.

But I'm sure he probably said, Chris Pallies, you know, King Kong Bundy. Just to me, sounded like ol' Tito just didn't want to be part of it, which is fine, but was telling a "white lie".
