Unlocked Zed's alt, Gregorian. Not getting a particular feel for any modern person he's based on, but might just not be thinking hard enough. I know Braun Strowman was originally mentioned, and might be ]partial inspiration, but this gimmick doesn't fit him to me. His look screams Erick Rowan for me.

The Mountain from Game of Thrones perhaps... his last name was close to Gregorian. Don't think so. The Mountain would be in the opposite end of the spectrum(pure evil)

Well Gregorian is tag team partners with Pale Rider (Gunslinger alt) in The Crusaders.

The Mountain would be in the opposite end of the spectrum(pure evil) I didn't really look at it like that... I was thinking of reversing his gimmick and starting him as Gregorian, then changing him into Zed. Kinda like The Mountain in GOT.

I don't have the card yet but after seeing him in the gimmick change option and in a loading screen, Ego Stevens is definitely ispired by The Velveteen Dream.

Banger & Hustler are also based on Nick & Nate Diaz, at least their alts are I believe we need Jake and Gilbert now

Sweet Jane is definitely much more Becky Lynch than Winter is.

Who do you guys think Avarice is? Feels like it should be super obvious but I can't tell Avarice screams Dolph Ziggler, but there might be other references in there too

Glitter Guard not only reminds me of Breezango, but also Sho and Yoh from NJPW.
Sharif reminds me of Andrade

This might be a bit of a reach, but I think Icepick Dominic also references "Switchblade" Jay White?
