Since they were doing their top 5 for 2020, may as well share mine (in no particular order)
Eddie Gilbert
Eddie is one of the guy that got me watching when he and Ricky Morton battled Tojo Yamamoto, Fuchi and Sato in the (second/third) Tupelo Concession Stand brawl
Fabulous Moolah
I may be biased since I signed her, but in all seriousness, she’s one of the most influential women in wrestling history
Scott Irwin
Knowing Super D is coming puts him on my list. One of my dream matchups is he and Superstar taking on the Road Warriors
British Bulldogs
Dream matchups vs Rock n Roll Express and the Midnights has me salivating
Jack & Jerry Brisco
I know the potential these signings brings to the game

I listened to the podcast today while closing out the 2126 year in my GWF fed.
In regards to the junior heavyweight limit in LOW, there is nothing official as different territories/feds often used different weight limits. But I personally have used 225 lbs for LOW while also allowing wrestlers who weigh slightly over 225 to compete for that division's championship under the assumption that they cut enough weight prior to the match to qualify.
I agree with Sam about Mildred Burke's book The Queen of the Ring. Years ago, even before she was signed to LOW, I checked that book out from the library and enjoyed reading it. Unfortunately, Mildred Burke is still having problems trying to win the Ladies Championship from Sherri Martel in my fed.
These are my personal top 5 for each of the game lines for 2020:
COTG
1. Matador of M83 (One of my top all time favorite COTG wrestlers got a color card! I am looking very forward to the release of 2091 in color sometime this year!)
2. Thunder (another one of my all time COTG favorites!)
3. The Basilisk
4 Evolution updated (my current Carnage Champion, he has been unstoppable with his new card)
5. Orrus The Unstoppable
Honorable Mention: Bad Dude, Rack and Ruin
LOW
1. British Bulldogs
2. Adrian Adonis
3. Barbarian
4. Baron Von Raschke
5. Manny Fernandez
Honorable Mention: Fabulous Moolah, Briscos
Indy(this is the hardest list for me to narrow down to 5)
1. Alex Zayne and Blake Christian
2. Ace Austin
3. Matthew Justice
4. WARHORSE
5. Aussie Open
Honorable Mention: Mil Muertes, Salina de la Renta, Matt Cardona/Brian Myers, Flamita, Rey Horus, Willie Mack, and Killer Kelly

Great episode! First of all, I have to echo Sam's comments on "Master of the Ring: Buddy Rogers". This is rocketing into my top 5 of favorite wrestling books. It's like a textbook of the Golden Age of wrestling. I'm literally putting book flags in my copy because it's a great reference for the Legends game. I'm learning so much about the early days of wrestling and television, plus more about the east coast version of the AWA world title and it's multiple claimants. I cannot recommend this book enough. Here are my top 5 for COTG and Indies: COTG 1. Murdok 2. Avenging Force 3. Proteus (hooray for the Greek Gods!) 4. The Matador of M83 5. Warden Indy 1. Danhausen 2. Warhorse 3. Willow Nightingale 4. Mil Muertes 5. Willie Mack My Legends picks are on Uncharted Territory Episode #10. I don't remember my answers, off the top of my head!  |

Listening to this right now.
Junior heavyweight limit for me is always 227, but 225 is the standard.
Talk about the perennial championship and how the indie winner may be at a disadvantage. My advice for an overlooked powerhouse "indie" card is ROH champion edition Michael Elgin. If I may, he may be a little OP and can definitely hang with the big boys.
Great to hear talk about Nacho Barerra. That's going to be a nice addition to the game.

Great podcast, as always! Figured I'd quickly sound off... In regards to the Junior Heavyweight class... I have adopted the same principal used by Vegas by allowing anyone under 230 lbs to compete within the division... One guy that comes to mind is 2 Cold Scorpio, who weighs in at 229 lbs. My Top 5 lists for 2020: COTG: 1. Matador of M83 2. Rack & Ruin 3. Killer Queen 4. Thunder 5. Iron Mane LOW: 1. Vampiro 2. British Bulldogs 3. Powers Of Pain 4. Don Muraco 5. Adrian Adonis Indies: 1. James Storm 2. Ivelisse 3. Mil Muertes 4. Willie Mack 5. Salina de la Renta |
