I'd probably use them for wrestlers through maybe the 1940s but there are always exceptions to the rule. I definitely think there are more modern wrestlers that these charts would work better for and there are some older wrestlers who might have been willing to try some of the moves on the classic charts. Pick and choose whatever you feel fits best. I originally thought about saying you could probably get away with using them until the Golden Age and wrestling hitting the Dumont Network if we were going by eras. Honestly, even then, if you watch some of the footage from the 50s, there are little to no whips to the ropes or turnbuckle. It's mostly wrestlers locking up and sort of moving the opponent there, or the action ending up there naturally. I'd say they're probably appropriate up through the 50s. Maybe start to introduce more flashy charts in the mid/later 50s.

My thought was using the year they debuted as a cut off for the vintage style charts, about 1965-ish. But I also feel like there are more modern wrestlers you could use as well, like Bryan Danielson or Ken Shamrock.
