Well, my definition of Kayfabe is different I suppose.

My only point is that the Legends cards are rated from a kayfabe standpoint...William Regal, good as he is, should only be midcard at best, because he's never really risen above that from a kayfabe standpoint. Goldberg, a vastly inferior performer from just about every definable measure (depending on your take on the piped in "Goldberg" chants), would have a much more loaded card, for instance, because he was booked to utterly dominate everyone he faced in WCW and half the guys he faced in WWE. I think you hit that on the head Tommy. I think Chad, Cory and Tim make the card based on their "place in history" rather than than their "ability" Heck, can you imagine Dean Malenko with ten Level 3 Offense moves?!?! |

We seem to have high jacked this thread. I suggest we get back to the original subject.

Okay...I had sent Tom contact info for Whipper Billy Watson Jr. in the hopes we could get both Watson and maybe even his son.

If we had to take Junior to get Whipper.....I'd go for it.

I was just thinking...since Flair retired is there a chance of signing him? I think a set with both JJ Dillon,Flair and Blanchard would be off the hook!

Flair at this point is still very much under contract to WWE. If they move him to a Legends contract, then maybe.

now from my point of view since i started this post HIGHJACK AWAY!!!
ive been watching wrestling since 1977 Trish is one of the best 20 female wrestlers in history.she actually raised the standard of female wrestlung in wwe. Heck Victoria is awesome even though you can tell shes holding back from actually destroying the other divas.
and then there is Beth Pheonix do i need to say more....?

Sorry if I'm too late for the highjacking, but I gotta chime in: 1.Please do not EVER use the words "Goldberg" & "Legend" in the same post EVER again! Goldberg was a hack football player who was in the right place at the right time (& had the right look-Austin's) whose lasting impression on wrestling as far as I'm concerned is ending the career of the greatest wrestler ever, Bret Hart, because of his lack of knowledge in the ring. Sorry, but I had to say it. 2.Trish would be a welcome addition to the game, IMHO 3.As for other "modern" wrestlers I'd like to see added, or more importantly, that might be available to be added: Chyna-A great idea from Pride & I'm sure she's available too X-Pac- I know Jakks produces figures for both 1-2-3 Kid & X Pac, but does that automatically exclude Sean Waltman? Plus, as long as nobody introduces a video camera to their storyline with him & Chyna, we should be safe  Dean Malenko- would probably be the most technically proficient card in Legends history, Trav Balls Mahoney-I know he's NOT under contract with WWE-he told me last month at an Indie show while my buddy took his Polaroids for him & Jake Roberts (hint...hint...) Would fit in well with a LotF fed, don't you think? Plus, he hates the WWE Mick Foley-yes, he is under contract to WWE, but I noticed his picture on the cover of the new Ring of Honor DVD today-a glimmer of hope? Plus, I see him about once every couple of weeks & could mention it to him (P.S.-Nicest guy you'll ever meet) Roadkill-If for nothing else, to give Danny Doring back his tag team partner (interesting sidenote, I met this guy in Wal-Mart!) Axl Rotten-Definition of hardcore, but a genuinely nice guy when I met him at a KISS concert Lance Storm & Shane Douglas (with Francine,of course)-Throw in Candido & you've got the Triple Threat) Lita- I know she showed up at Raw's 15th anniversary, but I don't believe she's under contract Just a few ideas... By the way, Flair will be next to impossible. WWE would not even let him attend the NWA Legends reunion recently! Blasphemous! |
