I'd have to guess the only guys you will see in this game are mostly from the 80's some from the 90's and ones who have contracts with jakks. I wouldn't think any current wrestlers like hbk, hhh, and taker would be in. Here's what i guess we'll see.

Hogan, Andre, Heenan (confirmed)

Ultimate Warrior
Bob Orton
Paul Orndorff
King Kong Bundy
Rowdy Roddy Piper
Million Dollar Man
Hacksaw Duggan
Honky Tonk
Ric Flair
Jake The Snake
Rick Rude

I remember they did that on Champion Wrestler,an arcade game back in the day. If you picked the wrestler who had the manager,if you pressed a certain button combo the manager would get in the ring and hit the guy with his cane. Good stuff.

I saw in one of the writeups where Bobby Heenan got on the apron during the Hogan Andre match.

It's gotta be Kerry then because he's the only one that appeared at a Wrestlemania.

Shouldn't realy do this, but OK. From the new Observer newsletter:

Quote:


	Vince McMahon pulled Foley from the �Legends of Wrestlemania� videogame I believe this past week or the week before. There were several names for whatever reason that he wouldn�t allow to be featured in the game, but videogame world sources indicated the two THQ was most unhappy about not being able to feature were Foley and Randy Savage. We know Hulk Hogan will be one of the key featured guys in the game, and from the process of elimination, if Foley and Savage are the two they are most unhappy about not being there, that locks in Rock as being in. The key three would be Hogan, Rock and Austin, and since Austin is with the company right now, he was always a lock. I�d presume Bret Hart would be as well.

Hopefully, the CAW system will take care of that.

why are some of these people want ECW/WCW wrestlers in the game? Thought the game is called "legends of WRESTLEMANIA" not wrestling. Like Sting, sure hes "the man" but has he ever been in a wrestlemania event? same goes for mikey whipwreck, tommy dreamer and other non wrestlemania eventers, but up to you people

Tommy Dreamer has actually been in a few Wrestlemanias.

# 31 Scorch6969 @ 10/10/08 01:29 PM

Ok, this may not make sense to some of you, but, being a wrestling fan, this game will only stipulate WWE wrestlers from the past along with the gimmicks at the time. Meaning, no WCW or ECW wrestlers. If you haven't watch each wrestlemania and there is what could be in this game. I'd love to have sting vs. flair but it can't happen here because it's strictly WWE. So if you make your "wish lists," they could only be WWE which sucks :/

Tito Santana, Ric Martel, Yokozuns, Greg Valentine, Verne Ganes, The Sheik, Killer Kawalski, One Man Gang, Doink the Clown, Brian Pillman, Bob Orton, Abdullah the Butcher, Bam Bam Biggelow, Harly Race, Jeff Jarrett, and on the announce table: tony schiavone, joey styles, jim ross, and michael cole.

Several of those you mentioned were never in a Wrestlemania and Tony Shiavone (thank the Lord) was never in the WWE/F.

Actually he was.

You probably have a mental block to it though. He was ostensibly hired to take over for Gorilla Monsoon but he bombed big time. I think it was 1990 or so when he was hired. He was around for close to a year. His most infamous moment was the entire SummerSlam card that year where he totally bombed and Jesse Ventura openly mocked the guy for nearly 3 hrs straight. This was the SummerSlam where Mean Gene said "F%&^k it" backstage after a prop fell.

Anyways Vince quickly realized that Tony's style didn't fit the WWF brand and Tony basically did dark matches, video tape matches and the occasional Superstars/Challenge.

# 35 SportsorDeath @ 12/22/08 03:45 PM

Good call, SPTO. It was 1989. That Mean Gene "Eff it!" backstage thing is priceless. It's on youtube if anyone is interested.

# 36 CaptainZombie @ 12/22/08 11:49 PM

Yeah, it was 89. Here it is, hope this is ok to post.
