Probably a dumb question and I’m assuming the answer is no but I know nothing about this era.
Are there any women wrestlers who fit in this time frame?

I don't believe there was any serious, consistent women's wrestling before the rise of Mildred Burke in the mid-to-late '30s.

As an industry this is probably a very true and accurate statement to the launching of women's wrestling as a recognizable entity of its own. However, Cora Livingston, Clara Mortensen, Laura Bennett and Minerva (Josephine Blatt) were all highly touted and recognizable Women's Champions prior to that... Minerva dating back pre-1900's to the carnival era... Laura Bennett right around the turn off that century... Cora Livingston in the early 1910's (she was also Paul Bowser's wife)... Clara Mortensen predated Mildred by only a handful of years (very late 20's i believe)... Many others that wrestled and fought in those eras |

Cora Livingston was the one that immediately came to mind. Would love to see her in the game at some point but I'm not sure how possible that is. I haven't heard if she ever had kids. |

The Coras (Livingston and Combs) are two I would love to see in the game some day as well as Helen Hild.

Do we have a mailing date for these yet, or a date that they'll be hitting Online?
