ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 While I was at work today, because we were deader than George Washington, I decided to compile a list of possible entries into Legends of WrestleMania that aren't in the game already, according to the various media (except for the first two, as they are almost likely from what I've heard). Except for one on my list, I made the cut-off time WrestleMania XV. -The Big Boss Man -Mr. Perfect -"Macho Man" Randy Savage -The Undertaker (Classic Look) -Eddie Guerrero -Yokozuna -Sid -Ax -Smash -Tully Blanchard (to go with the Arn speculation -Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart -The Honky Tonk Man -Owen Hart (BIG doubtful on him, due to his wife's hatred of WWE right now) -Earthquake -Vader -Mr. T (another big doubtful, but who knows) -"Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff -"Cowboy" Bob Orton -Don Muraco -The One Man Gang/Akeem -Hillbilly Jim -Tito Santana -"The Model" Rick Martel -Haku -"The King" Harley Race -The Barbarian -The Warlord -Nikolai Volkoff -Bad News Brown -King Kong Bundy -Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat -George "The Animal" Steele EDIT -Mike Rotundo/Irwin R. Schyster -Barry Windham (if Rotundo look is in game and not just IRS look) -"Ravishing" Rick Rude EDIT 2: -Razor Ramon And managers -Paul Bearer -"Classy" Freddie Blassie -Slick -Captain Lou Albano -"Luscious" Johnny Valiant -Elizabeth -Sunny (though the only WrestleMania she appeared at on the main Mania card was XIV, managing LOD) -Paul Ellering (also LOD manager, but only was there for a promo they did at VIII) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YourKock'sReallyGreat 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Where is IRS on your list? He was a multiple WWF Tag Team Champion with 2 different partners at WM 1 and WM IX. There is a rumor that he is in the game due to a Money Inc sign n the stands. You are missing Ric Rude as well. IC Champ, upper mid card heel. Dynamite Kid is another potential Legend Nikolai Volkoff as well unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Also, Nikolai is on my list. Dynamite I left off due to his outspoken-ness against the business. ...maybe I should add him though...I mean, Warrior got in. *Shrug* I'll leave him off for now. He's a "Diesel" for me. A "Diesel" being a VERY light chance of being in, lower than Owen or Mr. T. Diesel could be in because WWE owns the name and the general look, but doesn't have the rights to make him look like Nash.

YourKock'sReallyGreat 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 You still left out the Dynamite Kid. Davey Boy is in the game. Dynamite should be easy to make in CAL if he doesn't make it in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 One would guess that anyone who was in the Impact game has a liscence contract with either TNA or at least Midway at this point. and Nash was in that game. So someone who isn't THQ has the rights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So someone who isn't THQ has the rights. Right. Hence the following will most likely NOT be in the game: Kurt Angle Road Dogg Billy Gunn Mick Foley Kevin Nash (Though "Diesel" could still make it, just not make him look like Nash) Scott Steiner Rick Steiner (via association) Jim Cornette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Foley has probably never been asked about his rights for gaming purposes...but I remember an article where Vince said he didn't want him in the game. THQ may actually still have his...he worked for the company very recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What was the last WWE game that Kurt Angle was in before he went to TNA...so I can see the time frame that game was made and released? EDIT: Added Razor Ramon to my list.

Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 So is Flair in SvR 2009 and thus unnecessary for the roster or will a classic Nature Boy be in it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YourKock'sReallyGreat 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Rumor has it that Flair, Old School Undertaker and HHH are all going to be in. Waste of spots if you ask me since they are all in Smackdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YourKock'sReallyGreat 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 But I'd rather play with Flair against Hulk Hogan or Roddy Piper than Mr. Kennedy. Flair already is in Smackdown and you can import most of the roster into LOW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LivingLegendGaryColeman 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 While I'm not surprised HHH is making the game, if this goes up to only WM 15, that means we are most likely to get Blue Blood HHH, right? He was a Blue Blood for 12 and 13 and skinnier, long tights for 14/15. So if he shows up in current form, that will definately be a waste of roster spot (with the Smackdown importing) and go against the "only up to WM XV" we keep hearing now.
