They didn't fit in with the last edition theme though. I really don't have a problem with Abe. I don't use him but I'm sure some people are enjoying him.
So, we looking at jobber level stats for Jim Powers? I'm thinking he should be around S.D. Jones level.

Powers should have better tag then singles rating. He had his most success as a Young Stallion.

I kind of want late 90s WCW jobber Jim Powers but I know I won't get that.

Powers shouldn't be made a total jobber. If he has a 5 pin or worse he'll get a 4 in my game. He can have power slam or dropkick (0) finisher, a tag on lvl 3 defense and you can team him with whoever you want.

Well Anderson sneaked past Powers for the fourth slot. No surprise the Hangmen got the slot as we can never have enough tag teams. Hoping Powers gets a spot in the next PDF set that he's eligible.

Well Anderson sneaked past Powers for the fourth slot. When I was checking on the results, CW Anderson was ahead of Powers the entire time. Powers actually made a late surge to make it close.

The way the voting fell on this one I'm most likely going to pass on this pdf set. I'd only be buying for the Texas Hangmen and I'm not sure it's worth it. Same held true for the Vintage pdf, actually: I only wanted the Mildred Burke card, so it wasn't worth six dollars to me.

I think the Texas Hangmen will be one card. So I think the set will be Blue Meanie, C.W. Anderson, Texas Hangmen and Jim Powers. That's just my opinion. If it's been said otherwise I take back my statement.
The Evan Lewis card from Vintage is a really fun card. He's a great mid-carder to throw into the mix.
I like this set. The Blue Meanie will be a fun addition to the lower card. I'm looking forward to getting more members of the bWo so I can have a true comedy group in my fed. Honestly, the Blue Meanie alone is worth the money because he just brings such a different vibe to a promotion. The others after that are just a bonus.

Chad said the Hangmen would be two cards.

Powers and the Hangmen were the two I was hoping to see the most. Hopefully Powers wont have to wait as long as The Blue Meanie

Got the set. You know you've been playing the game for a really long time when you guess the Meanie's stats almost perfectly beforehand and have a good idea of how the Hangmen will look.
I don't like that the Hangmen don't have divided artwork but that's really a minor complaint.
I think this is a great infusion of undercard talent. The Blue Meanie really brings a comedy element that the LOW has lacked. I think the Hangmen will be good as a tough guy heel tag team.

I bought the online version, but not the pdf. The Hangmen were the main reason, but I'll have to find a way to use Meanie and CW at some point in time. Hangmen are pretty much exactly how they should be. No complaints and I'm working them into the mix ASAP. CW actually seems just a bit stronger than I'd have imagined. Not by much , but just a little bit.
I knew it would be too much to ask to get a predominately "last days of the AWA" pdf, so I figured Johnnie Stewart wouldn't make the cut. Still, it would've been nice---for me, Chad, and Cory at the very least. I hope to see the other names get into the next pdf/online release (except Powers, who should be in the next full, physical product release).
