Wait...you signed 10 guys for Legends and you are banned from the FG board? I am not currently banned from the board. Have been in the past though. Martinez was not at this year's show, if you mean Mercedes. Ok, no problem. It just struck me as odd.

And contrary to popular belief, I'm not solely about the ladies. Nine of the 10 signings are men.

But I know that some people feel that those spots are "wasted". That could not be any further from the truth. I would love to see Melissa, Mercedes Martinez, Rain, Lacey, Nikki Roxx, etc... That would be awesome.

I have a lot of ladies signed. More than enough for their own set although that's not gonna happen. Some pretty good ones. Will just take time to get them a card.

Was this another four hour long show like last year ? As much as I like wrestling I had a hard time sitting through something that long. Like I said Corino was more than happy to sign my card. I had my D-Lo Brown with me but for some reason he was a no show. I'm guessing that Slick Wagner Brown wasn't one of the guys you got signed lol. The WXW has some good wrestlers I'm just worried that we'll see never see any cards of those guys

I have the same worries. At one point I was talking to some guys and they were signing, and other people came over to see what we were doing, and just started signing up. I didn't even have to ask. At least a few most likely won't ever get a card, maybe a shot at being in the promoter or online only. I did get the people that actually have experience, been around and done something in the business.
I don't know exactly how long the show was. It was around 3 hrs, a little more than that maybe. Here are the results, courtesy of Eric Shaffer, and some comments of my own.
7/18, WXW C-4, Allentown, PA (Sportsfest):
Mikey Valentino & Lance Anoa’i (the son of Samu) co-won a battle royal to earn a Hybrid Title match later.
Doc Daniels introduced X-Treme Billy Dream as the newest member of the Daniels Dynasty, and the man who would wrestle Sugaa in Sugaa’s retirement match (but if Sugaa wins, he gets 6 minutes with Daniels).
A 3-way match between Missy Sampson, Niya and Miss Risza was crashed first by Johnny Ego, then by Pryme Tyme Amy Lee. All four women beat up Ego before Sampson & Lee beat up Niya & Risza.
NWL/House of Pain Unified Heavyweight Champion Big Time Cory Bush won a 6-man over Killer Studs (Uber Stud & Giant Killer), Blackhawk, Napalm & John Rambo.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (EC Negro & KC Blade) beat Untouchables (Anthony Michael Givens & Mark Gore, w/Missy Sampson) in a #1 contender’s match, then gave Missy a Dirty Rotten Driver (dropped on her head while upside down).
Lance Anoa’i won the Hybrid Title in a 3-way match with Valentino and Champion Gentleman David Rose, then announced plans to go to college in the fall. Commissioner Maven Bentley allowed Lance to retain the title until the 8/7 event.
Joe Hardway won a 3-way over Nui Tofinga and Rich Swann.
Campeon Internacional Eddie Guapo won a 3-way over Rob Vegas & Chrono Chris.
Afa Jr won a 3-way over DJ Hyde & Mean Gene Snitsky.
2nd To None Alex Anthony won a 3-way over Bandido Jr & Havoc.
Elite Tag Team Champions Devon Moore & Sabian beat All Money Is Legal (K. Pusha & K. Murda).
Ultimate Heavyweight Champion Eric Cobian (w/Doc Daniels) won a 3-way over Daniels Dynasty stablemate “Rotten” Tommy Suede & AC Anderson, sacrificing Daniels in the match.

See, I don't get that... why not make them as a PDF set then? It's not like Tom pays anyone to do stats... and there's plenty of completists that would by the set to cover the art, I'm sure.
I get the impression they have ALOT of guys signed now, why not make the sets?

WXW always did a great job of booking shows and most of the time they dont have much to work with. Eric Cobian, Tommy Suede, Sabian and Devon Moore are some of the better wrestlers. Years ago it was much better they had Snitsky, Beth Phoenix, April Hunter, and a cruiserweight named Zero Gravity who was pretty awesome

OK, gather round kiddies. Story time!
I did not get Gene Snitsky signed. He had talked to Tom before and said he remembered the game and is still deciding. I hope still deciding doesn't really mean no. Also told me he'd call Tom this week, but if he does Tom is in California.
Snitsky is a monster of a man. It felt like he was six feet taller than me standing next to him.

I thought he could have got a better shake in WWE... they seemed to want him to be generic monster heel # 4202, and there was always glimmers he had a little more to him.

I also gave Snitsky two dvds of his matches in WXW.

A few years after a friend of mine here in town did a tattoo for Snitsky the WWE released a Snitksy action figure. The action figure actually had the same tattoo on it so Snitsky came back to my friends tattoo shop and gave him one. Last I knew my friend had the action figure up on a shelf in his shop. Just thought it was a neat story

I think Snitsky would be a fun addition, so hopefully says yes.
I wouldn't care for a .pdf file with a few of those. I know some would volunteer their art for guys like these in order to see them made if they had the official stamp of Filsinger Games

Just checking Double A, so you don't like the pdfs say in the promoter? Or if a mini set was done as a pdf? We all would rather have printed cards from FG, but there are people signed who is doubtful they will see a card done, so the only way to get them in the game is in a pdf or should they start putting wrestlers in the online system and nowhere else.
