Legends of Wrestlemania: Holes in the Roster

03:14 PM - March 10, 2009 by RaychelSnr

Here is a discussion starter if there ever was one wrestling fans. What omissions from this roster really grind your gears? Here are a few of mine:

The Macho Man Randy Savage

Um, duh. Seriously, how can you have a game titled Legends of Wrestlemania when one of the true legends is absent?

Notable 'Mania matches for the Macho Man include Wrestlemania 5 against Hulk Hogan, Wrestlemania 7 vs. The Ultimate Warrior, Wrestlemania 8 vs. Ric Flair, and of course, Wrestlemania III vs. Ricky Steamboat -- a match regarded by some as one of the greatest matches of all time.

Maybe I didn't like the demo because I'm not into wrestling anymore, but I thought it was trash.

Should the Bushwackers be in the game?

Legion of Doom!

I would like to see Steamboat and Razor in there. Too bad WWE execs refuse to promote competition, hence the reason Christian/Nash/Angle/Dudleyz/Foley are not in the game due to them being in TNA. I think those TLC matches with Dudleyz/Christian/Edge/Hardys were classics! Not sure how Koko B. Ware made it? He wasn't exactly a "legend" by WWE standards. If Savage ends up in it, I think they should add Sensational Sherri too (Savage and Michaels). How about Zeus? LOL.

i was just on wwe.com and looked at a demo for the game. John Cena was wrestling Hulk Hogan and Big Show was wrestling Andre the Giant.

# 27 FreakyLuu @ 03/15/09 11:31 AM

What about Tito Santana, I think he was in every Wrestlemania up to 7. More recently even, Eddie Gurrero. Kurt Angle, TNA or not, should be in the game too.

# 28 Racer @ 03/15/09 03:11 PM

Wrestlers I would have like to see included:

Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat, Ax/Masked Superstar, Smash, Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff, Hillbilly Jim, George 'The Animal' Steele, Dynamite Kid, Davey Boy Smith, Earthquake, Akeem/One Man Gang, Marty Jannetty, Razor Ramon, Diesel, Owen Hart, and Sid Justice.

Don't know why Michael Haynes is in the game since he wasn't really a WWF guy when he was a wrestler. But if they included him, they should have included the other Fabulous Freebirds (Bam Bam Terry Gordy and Buddy Roberts) too.

For the 6,000th time, this game is based off of the first 15 Wrestlemanias. That is why there is no Dudleys, Eddie, Christian, Foley, etc.

I don't like the inclusions of Arn, Hayes, or Helmsley. Arn & Hayes were not a big enough part of Mania to be put ahead of some guys who didn't make the cut, and Helmsley wasn't a big enough part in his "Blue Blood" days to warrant a spot. It's their backstage leverage that got them spots.

Racer's list about sums it up.

Hated the demo...No Orndorff sealed it.

BTW, Davey Boy Smith is actually in the game

What?? Mr. Wonderful is not in it? And no George the Animal Steel? Damn.

I though the Ultimate Warrior had problems with the WWF, so why is he in it and not Savage?

# 34 chuckrock @ 03/23/09 11:19 PM

Macho Man is one of the greatest WWF wrestlers of all time but I've been thinkin' why isn't Elizabeth on the manager roster?where's Virgil ?Where's Jesse the Body and what about Bob Backlund?leave it to vince to mess this one up..Macho Man is my favorite superstar of all time and he deserves the recognition from the WWF office.

# 35 chuckrock @ 03/23/09 11:24 PM

Oh and while we're on who's left out why is Kamala and Yokozuna in this game?C'mon those two sucked!...lol

# 36 brahmagoul @ 03/23/09 11:43 PM

Yokozuna isn't bad. At least he was a champion.

But tell me this: Koko B. Ware!?

A bigger question than why is he in the game is why is he going into the Hall of Fame? Did he ever win a match at Wrestlemania? You cannot go John Starks 0 for 12 on the big stage and be considered a legend.

Michael P.S. Hayes, with one total Wrestlemania appearance being the gimmick battle royal, is also laughable. I do like that Arn is in it just because.

# 37 CaptainZombie @ 03/27/09 02:41 PM

Guys that should have been in here:

Tito Santana (competed in 7 Mania's)

Rick Martel
Don Muraco
Demolition
Randy Savage
Akeem
Dynamite Kid
Haku
Bad News Brown
Marty Jannetty
Randy Savage
Lex Luger
Nasty Boys
Owen Hart
Diesel
Razor Ramon
Goldust

# 38 ExtremeGamer @ 03/27/09 03:12 PM

# 39 sportznut02 @ 03/27/09 03:13 PM
