It seems like most of the names in this set are babyfaces, so I'm guessing the final 3 names will be Yukon Eric, Ilio Dipaolo & Pepper Gomez.
Although I had a dream last night that this week's announcement was Penny Banner dressed in green--just in time for St. Patrick's Day!

Did we get Blassie and Tolos through Mike Lano? I remember his name was mentioned when they got announced. So that probably means there is no current release, if there ever was one, and I would assume that at best we are getting the French Angel, maybe Bobby Shayne, Yukon Eric, or maybe Ilio Dipaolo. Either way the set is shaping up really nicely, I think. I am not sure about the status of Blassie and the Tolos. Hopefully they are OK for inclusion in a future LOW set. They have not been released in color yet but has there been a color LOW set released yet where they would have been a likely inclusion? |

Blassie could have easily fit Hardcore...Tolos Brothers not as easily.

Nope. That’s what they did with Roddy Piper. I am kinda trusting that Piper was an exception that would only be made under the most extraordinary of cases (i.e. color updates for top tier wrestlers that already have B&W cards)... Otherwise, it could certainly sour the experience for a number of promoters who have invested a lot in the online version of the game. They addressed this on the RollUp podcast. I think the prevailing sentiment was the opposite of that. I'm paraphrasing here, but I believe they basically said if they can get a guy, but he can't be in online (or vice versa), they're not going to say "actually, you know what, no thanks...", and will just release the card in the formats it can be released in. |

Federation HQ will ALWAYS attempt to release cards in both print and digital formats. If a case arises where a wrestler has a licensing deal that prohibits a digital card, we will release a print card if it is feasible. If someone has a merchandizing deal that prohibits printed cards, we will try and release a digital card. In either case, we'll attempt to "fill in" that gap at a future time if circumstances change. I don't foresee this happening regularly or even often. It would only be in VERY rare circumstances if it ever happens. We've done nearly 250 Legends cards in color and it's only been an issue for 1 wrestler so far. |

Counting down to tonight's reveal. Friday night Legends are my favorite time of the week.

I have zero clue about tonight’s announcement? But can’t wait. The set is becoming very underrated and should be fun to play

Since COTG & Indies were both Promoter Prime names this week I'll predict we'll find out the PP names. So either Kangaroos & Wild Red Berry or Tolos Brothers & Blassie are my thoughts.
