While looking through my booklets of the past issues I have come across wrestlers that are not in the LOW cardstock as we speak. I will list them with the booklet version. I was wondering if these wrestlers might already be signed?
#1 LOW
Louis Klein (Louis Bastien)
Rikidozan
George Hackenshmidt
Youkon Eric
#2 Rematch
Tony Altimore
Greg Gagne
Bob Orton Sr
Randy Orton
The Sheik
#3 Hardcore
ENTER George Hackenshmidt
ENTER The Sheik
#4 Vintage
ENTER Rikidozan
ENTER Yukon Eric
#5 Fever
Dick the Bruiser
Evan Lewis
Bruno Sammartino
#6 Teams
Junkyard Dog
#7 International
Bolo Mongol (Masked Superstar)
It seems as if we have had some of the wrestlers that were mentioned appear later on in the future. What about some of the guys in the booklets?

Just a guess on my part, but unfortunatly no I really don't think Randy Orton and Bruno Sammartino have signed with LOW.
But here is a question I am wondering about in regards to Randy Orton. Since he uses his own legal name can the WWE still restrict him as much as their other wrestlers when it comes to things like LOW once he's done wrestling for them? Since we have his dad and grandfather already in the game, could that possibly increase the chance that someday in the future we could indeed get Randy Orton in LOW?
Sammartino would be cool to get too as he is the only bootleg I use in my LOW fed Major League Wrestling (MLW) where he serves as the chairman while wrestling an occasional PPV match. I remember reading in Tom's book where Tom wrote that Sammartino politley said no to LOW but left open the possibility of working with Tom in the future.
In addition to Junkyard Dog, another name hollywoodlyn listed in Dick the Bruiser would also be great to have in LOW someday. For starters, we could reunite him with his former tag team partner The Crusher.

I believe the names mentioned in earlier booklets and then signed and received cards later is pure coincidence. Possibly a name or two were signed and mentioned in a book then got a card later, but not all of them.

At best it shows the people Tom sees as potential signees that he will try to contact.
As far as the Randy Orton question, I'm sure WWE can restrict him just as much as any other wrestler with a "no compete clause" which means anything that could potentially take away any revenue from WWE.

Bruno Sammartino and Dick the Bruiser said no I believe.

Well Dick obviously didn't say no but his family did, yes. Bruno also turned it down and Tim said Lou has not been signed.

You have like -100% chance of that ever happening.

Although he wasn't mentioned in the book, Great Sasuke is on the cover of International with Liger.
