This set is extremely well rounded. There's something for just about anyone. Even if you don't like women's wrestling in general you've got Chyna and Luna to work ringside and the odd match or mixed tag. Trying to think who you could put Chyna with. Rude?

Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and....someone else who fits the DX theme. Rude as the DX bodyguard: it was cool to see him have a spot on WWF TV but he never really fit where they were going with the team. I was glad when he jumped to WCW. Or, you know, Chyna and Val Venis might work too.

See that's the thing about Legends, everyone feels compelled to do what was done in history. I HAVE to put her with him or them, no creativity or imagination. Why not team ANYBODY you want regardless what they did in 'real' history. Go wild, have THE worst heel in history be your top face and vice versa.

Other times new combinations from the same era or alliances of wrestlers from different eras work. One of my sillier current alliances is "The Russians" of Ivan Koloff and Redd Dogg Rodney Mack ("The Black Russian" after turning his back on USA to be mentored by Ivan). One team I put together because I thought it would be good was Jim Brunzell and Tony Atlas. Then I found a match on YouTube from the AWA where they beat The Road Warriors! So I guess my instincts were good on that one.

Its tough to completely break away from Tom's "history". For both LOW and CotG I like to use that history as a starting point and then let the dice take me where they want to go. It just fits my brain better, because now I have a reason to turn someone or team them with someone, or whatever because its now based on my own history with matches and angles to back that up.
Also... hey everyone! Cool place, enjoying reading all the conversations....

Why start w Chyna being with the Great Gama or RVD when she can start w the NAO/Rude like in real life. Plus I think LOW fans rightfully like to revisit history through the dice. COTG is where FG fans can really let loose.

I'm still perturbed about Shirley Black as the last name in the recent women's set. As evidenced on the board nobody ever heard of her. At least a small handful of way better names signed to make the set even better.

I knew her from a few appearances on AWA and some matches in the midwest, but she was kind of a reach for inclusion. However, you need that depth if someone wants to run a good women division. They can't all be superstar main event level cards.
