That would be the obvious but most boring option. I think it will be a new name. The mystery lies in how Not Mike will be depicted on the card he's not getting. |

I'd say he'd likely not look like his Varsity Club look if I were to guess and I would totally not pick that two people in September Prime would be Kevin Sullivan or Mr. Fuji. No chance there.

I still say the hint is in the phrasing. We are NOT getting Mike Rotunda but we are getting CAPTAIN Mike Rotunda.

If Rotundo is released and this is his initial card in the Tragos/Thesz set, Id say its a 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% chance it's going to be his 82-87 Good guy personna. Kinda like you weren't going to get crazed bad guy Bob Backlund for his inital card in a TNT set. |

I prefer that incarnation, but still remember Ted DiBiase's first cards. I think the difference is you were selling those initial sets to the mass market and, like it or not, Ted DiBiase was more well known as the Million Dollar Man. This set (TNT) is celebrating "real life wrestling credentials" (if thats the best way to describe it). |

Looks like we could get some not that well known Names in this Set.
Plus maybe a Mr.Wrestling and Brad Rheingans?
I would have no problem with that 🙂

I would have no problem with that 🙂 There are a ton of names that are well known that Gerry could give us access to - I mean I think there is a strong chance that we get Masa Saito, and Danny Spivey in this set, due to their awards. |

I mean not well known names for the younger Fans.
If im right,Dan Spivey was a a Guy to vote for to get a Card in Prime?
So he could be a hot pick for this Set.
He also only has a B&W Card so far.
