If Jeff Jarrett were signed, I don't think they would make his initial release "long haired, young up and comer" in this Memphis set. I assume we'd get crew cut, slapnuts, broke ten thousand guitars and never drew a dime, 90's/2000's Double J instead. Not sure I agree with that. I think you’d see a coming into his prime 1988-92 long hair Jeff in a Memphis set. The short hair version isn’t really a “Memphis” version. That’s WWF/WCW version. I'm hoping for a Double J referee card. 😉

I just don't think I was clear. I was meaning that I think if JJ was signed, they would save him for another set where they could release the WWF/WCW version of him, and wouldn't have his initial release be as the "long haired, young up and comer" in this Memphis set.

Possibly, but in reality - who says we couldn't get two cards for Jarrett? We have two for Davey Boy Smith (tag and long dreads); we have two for Del Wilkes (The Patriot and The Trooper), we also could potentially have two for Stan Lane (Fabulous Ones/His Expansion II card), and Adrian Adonis has had an "alternate" persona up for a fan vote two times already (Biker and Adorable). Why couldn't we have the young Jarrett coming into his prime - similar to initial WWF/WCW run, and then the Jarrett you mentioned? Honestly, if we get Jarrett Memphis version or Lawler, I would not care who else made the set, period. It'd be a must buy from me.

Idol and the Fabs are headliners for me. A must purchase.

I was just saying that I feel like his debut card would make more of an impact for Filsinger if they used his WCW/WWF look to headline another 90's set or something, rather than blowing the surprise that he is signed and using a less popular version of him in a set that already potentially includes folks like Austin Idol, Tommy Rich, and The Fabulous Ones.

Outside shot on a wrestler I hope is in the game especially after listening to Jim Cornette recently talk about him is Robert's brother Ricky Gibson.

Give me some Porkchop Cash, Dream Machine and Dutch Mantel and I would be super happy if we are putting up more of our "wish list" wrestlers! Idol as the headliner is awesome and Tommy Rich seems a given. I have a feeling this Memphis set is going to be super awesome as the Legends Team has been doing a super job at getting it done for awhile now!

Stoked for Idol too, but there’s no way they would reveal the headliner this early. Right?

Ice and Wolfie are interesting...I could see them in the set but I could also see them in PP instead. I’m guessing a Jimmy Hart wrestler card, Sweet Brown Sugar Koko and perhaps Dark Patriot for PP... Or, a Soul Train Jones PP card 🤔
