Indy Wrestler by Debut Year

Hi Guys 🙂
I need some help to find Indy Wrestlers that started up their Careers before the Year 2000.

Anyone who has been wrestling that long probably has a wikipedia page by now (at least the less obscure wrestlers will). If you look up the people you'd like to use in your fed, their wiki pages will probably list a debut date.

EDIT: Just looking at a random handful of names, Austin Aries debuted in 2000, Bryan Danielson in 1999, Christopher Daniels in 1993. If you're looking at B&W cards too, Trent Acid and Johnny Kashmere debuted in 1995 and 1998, respectively.

Thanks Shadows 🙂
I have a lot of Sets already.So im looking for a fast way to sort them out.Doing every Wrestler takes quite some time.
I already tried Wrestlingdata.com
Most of the Wrestlers are more newer in the business I think.
That's the problem with doing timelines like in Champions.

Yeah, doing a chronological fed can be challenging. I've found the easiest way for me is to find a fed I want to...ahem..."pay homage to" and run that fed concurrently with the older shows as I watch them.

For example, I am currently running A Chikara fed in the home stretch of Season Four (2005). There are tons of Chikara cards, but I can sort them out by watching on Chikaratopia and booking my cards as I watch them on the streaming service. That way I know who debuted when, who left when, and so on.

I also just started an MLW fed, beginning in April of 2018. (Thanks to the Best of the Indies 2019 and Best of Canada sets, I have plenty of MLW stalwarts to run it, and I fill in with guys who are lower-card from other sets, like Sonny Kiss or Tracy Williams.) I watch their shows on YouTube and I debut a new talent whenever they appeared for the first time on Fusion. I also have some aces up my sleeve from other sets--for example, I am greatly anticipating playing out a feud between the Hart foundation and British Strong Style.

When I start my Shimmer and Evolve feds (both starting soon in 2010), I will do the same thing. I've found this system works really well for me.

I'm sure Quackenbush and Reckless Youth debuted before 2000 but can't give you an exact date for either.

CW Anderson debuted in 1993. I could have sworn Chris Hero debuted in 98 or 99 but Wikipedia says 2000

I just checked Wikipedia, and it says Hero debuted on September 12, 1998, though he wrestled as “Wifebeater” until 2000.

Also, Claudio Castagnoli debuted in 2000.
