Trying to make fun topics for the community, so let’s do this one
When COTG started, we had 24 wrestlers (12 good/12 bad), so let’s go by this:
Using color only, what’s your 24 Dream roster. Specify who is good anc who is bad. You can have two managers from each side thar wont count towards the 24 man roster

Gunslinger's is virtually perfect. The only things I would do is try to get Gotch and Hackenschmidt in there as a nod to Gotch in the original set and LOW's roster of pioneers. I would replace either Studd or Bundy on one side and probably George Steele on the other, since Crusher and Valiant and Duggan sort of fulfill similar "character babyface" roles. Just to get one guy closer to modern times in there, I'd probably then swap out either Crusher or Valiant for RVD.

This is a harder exercise than it seems at first glance because we have so many more heels than faces. I think the power level would be about the same if you wanted RVD & Jerry Lynn instead of The Crusher & Big John Studd. |

Thought about this WAY too hard. No managers here, only manager/wrestler types and strict 24 character limit. You'll see a lot of COTG parallels here.
The good guys:
Randy Savage
Sgt Slaughter
Andre The Giant
Lou Albano
Davey Boy Smith
Dynamite Kid
Bruiser Brody
Ricky Morton
Robert Gibson
Koko B Ware
Jimmy Valiant
Tommy Rich
Bad guys:
Roddy Piper
Iron Sheik
Masked Superstar
Paul Ellering
Hawk
Animal
Rick Rude
Adrian Street
Harley Race
Nick Bockwinkel
Moondog Spot
Moondog Rex

My own
I'll start with my #1 face and heel...Randy Savage and Big Van Vader. Two of my all time favorites
Then I'll need #2 face and heel....Jack Brisco and Harley Race.
Top Tag Team with an instant feud Rock and Roll Express vs Midnight Express (Condrey/Eaton).
Vintage because I love vintage: Frank Gotch vs Great Gama
some mid card fun
Billy Wicks vs Sputnik Monroe
Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard
Ilio Di Paolo vs Gorgeous George
Couple lower card battles
SD Jones vs Larry Sharpe
Koko B. Ware vs Disco Inferno
And then two more tag teams to finish things. Since I can't do Rockers vs Rose and Somers, next best thing
Too Cool vs Buddy Rose/Doug Somers
