These things could be so creative and not necessarily fit in the “official” GWF timeline.
We’ve seen Dimension X classics, and already have cards from that set. Redo them in color, which would give you 8, and add 4 more, which would give you 12 cards for the year
The following year, tweak some existing guys. I know online, Pit Viper has a darker tone in the 89 pack, so give him a card in prime reflecting his 1989 turn. I’m sure there are others that can have some tweaks that would fit into the storyline

Without other side cotg releases I'd say cotg prime may fall by the wayside. Not a shot at Tom but I don't think he wants to come up with cards every quarter for Prime. He's happy doing one new GWF set a year. Maybe we could replace COTG Prime with 80's Mania Prime. I actually really liked those 80s Mania sets and hoped they might continue. Some cool parody characters in that game

I'm guessing any chances (as slim as they were) of new sets likely ended when the App didn't work out.

A Prime Wrestling starter set with ten guys and the rest are quarterly three packs from Prime. It would be a good chance to experiment with stuff without impacting the main lines.

I’d like to see the DWC - Draco Wrestling Clones. COTG versions of LOW wrestlers in the same mold as the Draconian Sheik and Avalanche. This would prob be extra challenging since I’m sure Tom’s agreements with wrestlers obviously doesn’t include doing COTG versions of them, but it really would not be an different in theory that what 80’s Mania was.

I've been playing 80's Mania on my phone lately and I'd be down with this. The other idea I had was prehistoric earth. Cavemen, apemen, dinosaur men, stranded alien, time traveler, etc. Charts that reflect a different environment with audience participation and hazards.

I’d like to see a darker, more gritty version of LOW guys with COTG themes. Joe was telling me about an angle he ran on Kronos using Nikita Koloff going after Commander Sam and it was awesome. Really like the idea of a prehistoric Earth fed too. That’s very interesting and unique. I like the stranded alien idea a lot.

One more for the road - An alien armada tries to invade earth but when they get here, they're only a couple inches high so naturally the invasion fails. The survivors take up wrestling to kill time until they're rescued. Micro-Slam Wrestling or something to that effect. Stick manga/anime/Pokemon style art on it to attract the kids, make all the characters look like those pink MUSCLE figures.

For my one and a half cents, I prefer new guys in COTG, even a new Aethran soldier with unique move set, over someone who already has multiple cards available. I like Omega but do NOT need another Omega card any time soon. Like at least for the next decade.
