No they wouldn't because they ARE LOTF cards! Ok they are LOTF cards but I'd rather see more of the ROH and Chikara type LOTF cards than Big Battel. I'm just not into big battel that's all

I never thought I would see someone would prefer KBB guys over Austin Aries. But I guess to each their own. What makes the game so great, the various tastes/preferences of the different promoters.
I just done know how realistic a KBB set would be. With the limited amount of printed card slots per year, if I guessed I would say that most people would prefer the ROH/Chikara types rather then the KBB guys. Just not so sure how well it would sell. Maybe a KBB set would be better served to be released in a scenario like the NOW cards were done, but obviously with more quality control done. That is if the NOW scenario didn't ruin that avenue for everyone down the road.

I never thought I would see someone would prefer KBB guys over Austin Aries. I've seen both Aries and KBB live and KBB blows Aries out of the water on sheer entertainment value alone. And talk about the hard work that goes into each KBB show and it's no comparison. I can't see how anyone would prefer to watch two guys using hold after hold on each other in a ring with no storyline to go along with it as opposed two two "monsters" crushing buildings and each other! How fit do you have to be to wrestle in a rubber suit with zero to no visibility?! But like you said, to each his own. I just done know how realistic a KBB set would be. Well since the KBB guys are just as real as any other real wrestler, it'd be just as realistic as any other LOW or LOTF card. Dr. Cube won the LOTF tourney at GCon! Just not so sure how well it would sell. I think KBB is the perfect bridge to bring CotG players to LOW/LOTF. I'm sure there's some CotG players who just like it for the sci-fi aspect, not the wrestling, who'd buy a KBB set as a foray into LOW/LOTF. It might sell better than you think.

I agree. It's kinda like Jim Cornette used to say, "Do you like your wrestling chocolate or vanilla? I prefer my vanilla, but Vince McMahon likes his chocolate. But in the end, it's ice cream." I like that quote. I like it a lot. It needs to be used more often.

I am not the hugest ROH fan either, I like to have at least a little bit of story to go along with the wrestling. But WWE can take it to an extreme that way too, having 5 5-minute matches in a 2 hour show and the rest is stories, replays from their other shows, and them promoting their next PPV to squeeze another 40 bucks out of their fans. For the record, I did purchase the Dr. Cube card. What I meant about "realistic" was how legit of a possibility a full KBB set being made by Filsinger Games. Not that KBB is more or less real than what other wrestlers do (separate debate There are a fair amount of people that don't want women in regular sets, and mainly to just have them as LE/SE cards, and debate how well an all-women set would sell. I would think an all women set would outsell a KBB set by a considerable margin.

How well a KBB set would sell is anyones guess. Would it move more than a LOTF set, probably not. I could see it doing ok as SE/LE. Heck the one reason I haven't bought Dr. Cube is because he has no one to wrestle against in LOW/LOTF land. And his character is too over the top for me to use in LOTF. But as a stand alone, KBB is crazy fun.
