Excellent stuff! I particularly like the art for Steamboat and Santana... I think maybe Orndorff's piledriver should be a +3 though... That thing looked just devastating, and was sold as such IIRC... Thanks for the contributions!! I'm not a stat snob. If others thought, I'd have no issue updating. I'd rather have them as accurate as possible I have seen other bootlegs rate it a +2 also, so maybe it is just me... I definitely was an Orndorff mark back in the day, and his piledriver just looked better than anyone else... certainly including Harley Race. I am not saying that he should have better STATS than Race, mind you... I just think he had a better piledriver. Thanks again for sharing your work!

Okay, I consulted with two wrestling friends: one used to play the other doesn't, but knows about the game. Here was their analysis: Orndorff should stay as 2 compared to Race's 3 since Race was a 8 time champ and Orndorff was an upper tier/main eventer. I can see that reasoning.

These are all FANTASTIC! Thank you so much for the great contributions! If by any chance you may be looking to do some great guys who I have never seen cards and/or artwork for, might I please suggest the late great Playboy Gary Hart (manager, booker, overlooked genius)...perhaps in a texas legends addition with maybe Freebirds Michael Hayes and Buddy Roberts?
I'd also love to see your take on some of the top WWE guys going right now along with perhaps some old school AWA guys?

Tough to argue with that logic, I will admit...

I agree....in LOW a finisher has to be special to get a +3 or higher. But it also depends how it was booked... For example I am debating on if I would like to see a +3 DQ option for Patera'a swinging neckbreaker for how it was booked........ Kevin Sullivan and Billy White Wolf had "storyline broken necks" (turned one into a Satanic cult figure and the other into an Arabic Madman , but I digress)... and Rick McGraw's injury was blamed on it... ...... does that make it a +3? Race should have the +3 and Orndorff the +2 (but essentially a piledriver is a piledriver). I'd also say that LAWLER gets a +3 too, (in part due to how severe the move was treated in Memphis).
