Question about Tag Finishers

[Deleted]

I have always used a guys tag finisher as a (0) finisher. I guess I always looked at it as, why can't he still do his half of the double team finisher? Sue me, I will keep doing it until the Galacticops show up at my door to take my game away for playing wrong.

I'll subscribe to the KB newsletter of playing the game. He's got some cool ideas.

With a few rare exceptions like celebrities and guys like Goldberg who were essentially finished projects at the start, literally every single wrestler on the planet had a rookie phase, a prime phase, and unless they died young or were forced into early retirement, a decline phase. We don't need cards for every single one of those for every wrestler.

Jim Brunzell, who I'm guessing is one of the people that some question having multiple cards, was a much bigger individual draw and name as a High Flyer than as a Killer Bee, but the Bee run was a more well-known run because it was national for a bigger promotion. So he's perfectly justified in getting two cards, because he really had two "primes." If we got a card for his 1990's enhancement talent run, that would be pushing things to say the least.

Agreed on not needing every card of a wrestler. But every new name announced people want every phase, every different name, of their career.

This makes sense to me kb.

I'd like to give a dozen thumbs up to this post!

In synopsis, people are OK having their own house rules on tag team finishers. No one is "right" and no one is "wrong". I can say with 99% confidence that there is probably no one who plays this game that follows every rule to the letter of the law, and that's fine.

Also, some people like alternate cards, and some don't.

Let's talk about something fun, like who is in Legends Expansion X!

We already have that card, Mister X! 😅

Touche! But nah, Brunzell was at least at Mike Jackson/Rocky Kernodle levels, even in '92-'93. He'd get in a token run of offense and even had a genuinely straight-up competitive TV match with Shawn Michaels on one of the syndie shows.

I remember that match. It was actually really good.

1. Pete Doherty as the Golden Terror
2. '70s unmasked Pete Doherty, when he was just a generic TV guy
3. Pete Doherty as the Duke of Dorchester
4. Pete Doherty commentator card

That takes care of 5 cards along with Pat and the rest can be assorted filler.
