I know we got EVOLVE 2 back in April and it's a great addition to the FG family of products, plus we just had the release of Inspire Pro and at the end of the month we have the two ROH sets, but I'd like to keep EVOLVE in our minds. A few names that I'd love to see signed and in the next set are...
Martin Stone (I really want)
Andrew Everett
Trevor Lee
Rey Horus
Mike Bailey
Andrea (wrestling stats w/distractor rating)
Scott Reed (former tag team partner of Caleb Konley as The Scene)
Cheech
Cloudy
Papadon
Ethan Page (if not in the AIW set)
So those are names that have a place in EVOLVE history and could make up a new set, plus who knows what other wrestlers that'll join EVOLVE in the future and before a new set is released. I wonder if it's possible that Filsinger and Gabe Sapolsky can work out a deal to make a WWN set using wrestlers from their other feds like American Combat Wrestling (which is a fun fed I'm watching on Roku) or FIP, it's food for thought...

Don't know much about the names on this list, but you know I'll be researching them now... Rey Horus is like he'd make a fantastic addition, but couldn't we just just Tristan from COTG? (Just kidding, of course!) It's great that you have such a passion for companies like EVOLVE, Crimson Cross... Helps people like me, who have had so little exposure to independent wrestling, know what they should be checking out... Thank you! |

Trevor Lee is probably the one Indy guy we don't have yet who I want the most at the moment. His matches with Hero are definitely worth checking out if you haven't already.

Helps people like me, who have had so little exposure to independent wrestling, know what they should be checking out... Thank you! I can say it was back before I started my EVOLVE fed a year ago, when I looked at the starter set for EVOLVE and that kick started my interest in the product. I took a slow approach at first in buying dvd's and then jumping on board with the Roku, so my passion for the company is on and I'm glad that Filsinger Games opened the door to EVOLVE, but Indy wrestling overall... Trevor Lee is probably the one Indy guy we don't have yet who I want the most at the moment. His matches with Hero are definitely worth checking out if you haven't already. Agreed. Trevor Lee and Chris Hero had two excellent matches and Lee was on the last 5 EVOLVE shows, so he has been a fixture with the company and I want a card for him too... |

I'm sure we will have a little while before the next EVOLVE set is released. I don't follow any indy promotions super closely anymore but just looking at the names you have listed, I would think that Ethan Page would be in the AIW set and Papadon would be in the next CZW set, which will probably come before the next EVOLVE. I also feel like these indy sets need 1-2 big names to really garner interest from people who aren't hardcore fans of that fed specifically. Maybe I am wrong but that is how it is for me. The reason the first two EVOLVE sets were so interesting to me was that we were getting guys like PJ Black, Drew Galloway, the Bravados, Anthony Nese, Trent Barreta, etc. who have had success on larger stages. Getting guys like Tommy End, Timothy Thatcher and Zack Sabre Jr. were just icing on the cake for me.
So, I would hope that when we do get EVOLVE 3 we they get 1-2 more bigger name wrestlers who would make sense for the game.

No doubt a few big names can make a set outside of the hardcore fans work and right now TJ Perkins is a name that currently is on broadcast television, so he's right up there and I'm not sure who would come to EVOLVE and is a big name before a new set is made. The next set most likely will be in April 2016, as was the first two sets and so there is time to build on a set...
TJ Perkins and Davey Richards are solid names for a new set, plus I thought of a gimmick card for a guy whose been with EVOLVE for a long time is Lenny Leonard. I think a actual card (I know we have PromoterPrime and not everyone likes gimmick cards) for him as either at the broadcast table (it can be like the Mot & Kram with Johnny Rocket card from Promoter Madness 2) or conducting interviews could be cool, just like a Bill Apter/Gary Michael Cappetta card...

TJ Perkins would be awesome! I don't know if he is available due to him being in TNA still but you never know I suppose. I don't know anything about Lenny Leonard but I am a fan of gimmick cards (as you call them). I think they help flesh out the shows and stories. |

Yeah, TJ Perkins being in TNA hurts the chance of him being in the game and he's at the top of my wants list, Lenny Leonard is a solid voice for EVOLVE and I agree about fleshing out shows is a great thing and a card for Leonard (you could add either Ron Niemi or Rob Naylor to the card) would be fun stuff... |
