Seeing as there has been lots of this in the Legends thread recently, thought I would put down my top five cards from this years Indies releases and some honourable mentions, and hopefully see who other people's top fives are!
5) Arez - It's always great getting new cards of wrestlers from other countries, and to be able to add to the Luchadores in the game. Also think this card really does encapsulate Arez's unique offence and the art is superb.
4) Madi Wrenkowski - Was disappointed when she didn't get voted in for Prime earlier in the year, but really great that we are able get her added now in case she has been signed by WWE. A great personality and a real up and coming star.
3) Elijah Burke - One of those names people will know, it's brilliant to be able to add these established names as well as the plethora of young guys we have in the indies line
2) Velvet Sky - As Zeke rightly said, this is one of the bigger Indies signings and she could well have slotted into Legends. No doubt people will get lots of use out of her
1) Kikutaro - For all the other names, this one was the one I have been most excited about this year. I am a sucker for comedy wrestling and just love Kikutaro, and have done since the first match I saw of his. A really fun way to round off the year!
Honourable mentions: Taylor Wilde was really unexpected but is a great addition, Richard Holliday was nice to get added as he returned to the indies following his illness and from a deathmatch perspective, Mickie Knuckles is a massive addition I think!

Very cool!
I was working on a similar list before I left for Rome. I left my notes in Las Vegas so I will type my personal Top 5 (with lots of honorable mentions) next week.

For me, in no particular order my top 5 would be
Chris Harris (massive AMW fan growing up so being able to have them in the game is incredible)
Velvet Sky (key part of TNA during my teenage years and having the beautiful people and Allure in the game provides a while range of opportunities)
Arez (love his work and the card done a great job capturing his look and in ring style)
Big F'N Joe (having met Joe and... Sharing similar interests it's great to have a card for him. He's a key part of the UK deathmatch scene and one of 3 cards I'll hopefully get signed at TNT in February)
Kennedi Copeland (Kennedi has been a want of mine in the game for the past year or 2. Very happy and again it's a great card)
Honourable mentions for AKIRA, Sawyer Wreck, Michael Oku and the 2 PP Updates
I'd also like to thank everyone who puts their time and energy into these cards. From signings and art to movesets and stats, thank you for all the work yous put into this game for us.

Daniel Makabe (it has to happen eventually!) Long shots because the window might be slim Mustafa Ali and Grizzled Young Veterans Yes yes yes for Price, Makabe, Ali and the GYV. Not sure how the release clauses are worded but Danni Luna may already be too late. She announced she has signed with TNA (feels strange writing tna again 😂) but yeah if possible Luna would be on my list also, I was hoping for her in the women's set that just released

Seems like only WWE and AEW are no go's
