A place to freely speculate and discuss any future LOW signings, cards etc...

With Boris Malenko being inducted into the TNT Hall of Fame this year and Joe Malenko a frequent attendee, I believe we'll get a Boris card and perhaps Joe as well for Legends.

Is Bruno still the top prize out there or are fans mostly happy w Chad’s boot? I’ve never actually played it but it looks flawless. I know a few LOW fans still really get into “official” cards even when there is already a perfectly suitable UBU card already available, but most are pretty content when they already have a strong boot of a guy.
Where does Bruno land on that radar?

Bruno is probably still on top of the plausibly obtainable want lists. Of course there are the untouchable ones that everyone mentions all the time.
The only thing different about the quality bootleg cards out there right now is no copyright on the back and no official background on the front.
As far as speculation of who is to come, anyone attending a Tragos/Thesz HOF weekend is fair speculation. Would you have ever imagined Mark Henry or Ken Shamrock in the game otherwise? Boris and Joe Malenko are VERY strong possibilities. Joe Malenko is a very approachable and friendly guy. He may even have connections to get Mike Graham back into the game along with Mike's father Eddie Graham.

While I do think the Legends background looks nice on its own, I’m not a fan of it being used as a uniform background (not a fan of any uniform backgrounds, but esp not fond of LOW).
Unfortunately, I think it takes away from a lot of great art. If I’m an artist, I’m not crazy about all my hard work being slapped on top of a bright red & yellow background, either.

They have done a nice job w LOW, signing big names over the past several years. Having the LOW team involved is a huge strength. Their passion for the HOF goes a long way, much like Zeke has a real passion for Indy wrestling. FG is very fortunate to have those guys helping run LOW.

I think it comes down to a matter of uniformity and speed. It's easier to draw a figure and slap it on a single pre-selected background than to get the figure right and then go through selecting and approving different backgrounds. There are a lot of images and personalities in legends that could benefit from something other than that background, though. It's perfect for the guys (and ladies) from the 1960s and earlier, not so good on some of the more modern personalities.

Yeah, some of the modern guys really just want something else. Street is one whose art totally disappoints me not from the art itself but that it could have been so much more.
