Totally stoked that Taven is getting an update... And I'm VERY excited that Luchasaurus is coming into the game... I've been a fan ever since he competed on Big Brother!

you don't need to thank me, I was really glad to sign the half luchador/half dinosaur Luchasaurus to the game. Luchasaurus is one of the wrestlers I signed on New Year's Eve at Bar Wrestling. I remember you guessed it correctly, I just obviously did not want to confirm that since I knew it would probably be awhile before Luchasaurus was announced.

And Luchasauras,.... βͺοΈπππ©!!! Great Job Zeke & crew glad you like Luchasaurus! On New Year's Eve, I rode to Calfornia to go to Bar Wrestling that night with my friend Alex (who works for Bar Wrestling and for PWG,) my friend Ofi, and her boyfriend Willie Mack. On the way to pick up Willie and Ofi, I had mentioned to my friend Alex I was hoping to talk to Luchasaurus at the show that night about possibly signing to be in the game. We got to Bar Wrestling really early and Alex, Willie, and Ofi all go inside but it was too early for me to go inside so I sat in the back seat of Alex's car and read my Comic Book Story of Professional Wrestling when a few minutes later there is a tap on the window. It was my friend Alex and I thought he needed something from the car for the show so I get out and Luchasaurus is also standing there because my friend Alex brought him out to meet me. I was then able to talk to Luchasaurus about the game and he signed right there at the car- first time I ever signed someone to the game in the parking lot before the show. I am glad Alex brought Luchasaurus out to see me as otherwise I probably would not have signed him that day as I do not recall seeing Luchasaurus after the show that night. I hope you guys like Luchasaurus's card. He has some cool moves such as Tail Whip, Tombstone Age (a tombstone piledriver,) Snake Bite, his SHINING LIZARD finisher, and more.

Luchasaurus is actually more fun to me than Taven so yeah glad to see him coming. You always write interesting mechanics, Zeke, so I'm sure this will be fun too.

Yeah, Ian is really excited to be in our game as he has said this card will he the first piece of merch he has ever had. I think Tournament Master did a good job writing the chart on the back of Ianβs card. I signed Ian at Samβs Town in March when ROH was here in Las Vegas for their Anniversary PPV weekend. After the PPV that Friday night, Ian and Todd Sinclair were standing in line in front of me and Will at the entrance for TGIF. Will asked Todd Sinclair to sign his copy of his card and Ian told Will he would like to have a card too so I reached into my bag to get a release form and signed him. I hope you guys like the mechanic I wrote on the back of Tavenβs card, it is based on things he did when he had his purple belt. I showed the mechanic to Chad Olson when he was in town for the CAC and Chad told me he liked it. Yeah this was a fun signing.....this was late in the evening after already getting a bunch of cards signed that night after the show, just happened to see Todd in line and asked Todd for the autograph, once Ian saw what was happening, and was very interested, I said "you want to be in the game" and he said sure without hesitation and right there on the spot, Zeke as always, is ready with the form in hand. Ian was a very pleasant person to talk to and is a very genuine person. I was thinking, "what can we really do with a play by play announcer type card", but what the heck.........just fun to get other personalities in the game. I have been with Zeke when he has signed many, many wrestlers to the game........a lot that haven't even received cards or announcements yet.........but this was the first one where I was actually front and in the conversation when it happened. Zeke and I are going to the ROH show here in Kent, WA on June 1st, hoping we can get the newly signed wrestlers their cards that night.......and maybe a few more autographs as well!

Thank Alex for us Zeke. This card is awesome! Very excited for it! As soon as I saw him wrestle for the first time, I knew I needed a card for him. Strangely I felt that way after seeing Thomas Santell as well, hopefully he will cross paths with you one day. Good wrestler w a fun gimmick. Lucha is very impressive for his size. Guys like him and Brian Cage moving around like they do is nuts (& very unnatural).

I will tell Alex thank you again, I am sitting with him on Saturday at the MGM Grand for Double or Nothing (where Luchasaurus is one of the Indy entrants in the battle royal) and I should also see Alex tomorrow nght at the tag team tournament at the Nerd Bar downtown. I agree wth you about Lucahasaurus's impressive agility for his size, you will see moves such as the standing Spanish Fly on his card plus his Event Horizon signature (a shooting star.)

If anyone is curious as to what the stats are for Ian, I refer you to the Mot and kram announcer card in Promoter Madness 2. I used that as a framework and added in a couple other options including the possibility of a shocking debut. Hope its fun for those that want to use it.
