Everyone, let's try to stop arguing, enjoy who has been announced so far, and patiently wait for the rest of the announcements. I am 99% confident that there will be at least one person in this set you will enjoy, MAYBE even two!  Life is really way too short to argue about a game, which is supposed to be fun. I hope everyone has a great weekend! I look forward to seeing folks in person at the 25th anniversary Tragos/Thesz Hall of Fame and will miss seeing others at GalactiCon. Is there a published itinerary for the HoF weekend? Thanks! |

I know its an old topic of discussion in the thread but I just read through it and wanted to add my 2 cents, as pointless as they are. A wrestler's card should reflect one's main usage/peak of their career depending on the purpose of the card. Where it happened, doesn't really matter to me.. because the biggest promotion in the world isn't the end all be all of wrestling and these promotions use talent very differently around the world. Course, if you're booking a fed with every wrestler available, not everyone is going to get the same push but I want options.
Ultimately, the game is about fantasy booking.
Would love to get any names that were big in Japan, big in Mexico but no where else..

Love the variety we always get in these sets. We got a couple guys who were big in Japan, a vintage champ, an indy manager (from my favorite indy promotion of all time), some '80s & '90s love and one of the greatest of all time.
Lots to be excited with her, at least for me personally. Great to keep adding to the vintage ranks. Love the new art for DDP, still need to take a closer look at the stats. Awesome to add Haku! Bruno, nuf said. And Al Getz is a fun addition that I'll definitely find a use for at some point, maybe leading a Wildside faction or something.

Would love to get any names that were big in Japan, big in Mexico but no where else.. That is why sometimes I tend to use the stats on back as a guideline. If I feel a card is not strong enough, then as a promotor I give them the push. For instance, if 4 of Offense Level 2 is a Defense 2 I will make it a Defense 3. I do not stray from the basic card set rules, but I can tweak it a bit here and there to fit my needs as a promotor. |

I’m looking forward to the Rahl ratings on this set. I imagine Bruno’s will be extremely high. I’m also curious at how Page’s card is different from his CAC card.

DDP is mostly just shuffled. I can Rahl everyone tomorrow.

Dave, I also posted all the matches for Saturday night's IPW Night with Legends under the indies board. I know I have been tasked with spearheading a TNTHOF open tournament. More details will be coming, however bank on the fact that the tournament will involve TNTHOF inductees and ward recipients. Date and time still to be worked out however the tournament will take place in the room where GCON was held in 2023 at the Convention Hall! |

Not that we need one to be sure, but does anyone else think it's kind of weird we don't have a Lou Thesz card in any Tragos Thesz set?
