Another name I would love for an 80s WWF set would be Bad News Allen/Brown. But I imagine the odds of that are low.

If we're thinking of an 80s WWF set, then the names already waiting to be colourised are pretty impressive: Rick Rude Don Muraco Bob Orton Jr Hillbilly Jim Cousin Luke Koko B Ware Killer Bees SD Jones Lanny Poffo Jimmy Hart Mr Fuji Jim Powers We already have colour cards for Valentine, Beefcake and Jannetty and perhaps there are manage cards waiting for Albano and Johnny Valiant. There's probably more, but a set could easily be headlined by Rude/Muraco/Orton and hopefully there's some new names waiting! Exactly! Both sets are just begging to be released. Can't wait to see which we get first and who the new signings might be to go along with the legends we already have in those themes.

EDIT 2: Ok, I couldn't resist... Here's a list of names already in the game and available online that have appeared in ECW at some point in it's history: RVD Steve Williams Terry Gordy Jimmy Snuka Hawk Bobby Eaton Jazz Sandman Sabu Justin Credible Steve Corino Al Snow Danny Doring Amish Roadkill Chris Candido Tammy Sytch Bill Alfonso One Man Gang Eddie Gilbert Doug Gilbert JC Ice Wolfie D Tracy Smothers Jim Powers Mikey Whipwreck Tommy Rich 2 Cold Scorpio Don Muraco Stevie Richards Super Crazy Jerry Lynn Redd Dogg Blue Meanie I think that's everyone, but I may have missed a couple here and there. And granted, some of these folks just stopped in for a cup of coffee basically, but they were there at some point. And don't forget The Sheik!!

True, though it will be interesting if they would go with ECW or just a straight hardcore set to include guys like Sheik and Bull Curry

Other than those already released... Add One Man Gang, Andre, & Piper, yeah, I think so.

He did a match in 94 on The Night the Line Was Crossed. Which reminds me, there's also Kevin Sullivan. But, and I could be wrong about this, I don't know that we're able to get an online version of the Sheik. At least he was one of the very few that never made the transition from physical to online in the B&W days.

No, there are definitely more guys who appeared in the WWF in the 80s. Probably a couple dozen who don't have color cards yet.

Other than George Steele, Warlord, Buddy Rose, Dan Spivey, Tony Atlas, Angelo Mosca, Killer Kowlaski's one appearance in the WWF in 87 and Inoki and Tiger Mask's MSG shots, who else? Because I'm wracking my brain looking at the legends B&W cards that either don't have a color card or aren't on that list (plus the 3 I added) and can't come up with any other names that were in the WWF in the 80s. Maybe you could toss in Blassie, but really only as a manager. Unless there are names that have yet to be released, that's about it for 80s WWF.

Maybe I missed it but did you mention Mr. Saito, Virgil or Abdullah Farouk (Grand Wizard)?
