I've wondered especially after they shifted Abner and Pain Dealers names if they'll be reluctant to use stereotypes like Kamala and Akeem.

I've wondered especially after they shifted Abner and Pain Dealers names if they'll be reluctant to use stereotypes like Kamala and Akeem. Kamala is probably the trickier one to pull off. Akeem you can kinda tone down...and realistically a lot of the comedy they tried to do with the gimmick back then had to do with his dancing and the way he talked which won't factor in to a card. Headhunter would be an awesome name for a Kamala card though.... HOly crap.. WHAT IF...they meshed Kamala with Mola Ram from Temple of Doom....Mala Ram......might mitigate some of the concern and you'd get a nice bonus feud with Arizona Chance...and an extra faction with the THugees |

The body paint may have been "over the top", but no more the Sting and Ulrimate Warriors were.) One Man Gang (Yes, I know most associate him as Akheem, but he spent just as much time outside WWF as the Gang between WCCW, Mid South/UWF, and Crocket, if not more. Plus he was the first UWF Champion in Bill Watts' original version of the brand.) Chris Benoit ( Yes I went there, and no one here can say without a shadow of a doubt that the findings were conclusive. There is a lot of unanswered questions about that day that still haven't come to light, and I try to stay on the positive side. Regardless, he was a remarkable wrestler in the ring and I hate seeing anything outside of kayfabe having an effect on someone. I mean, we don't punish Lex Luger for Ms. Elizabeth's death even though outside the sport he was just as guilty as she was for it. I'm sure I'll get a lot of flackfor this, but I still believe he should be recognized for his work, not what happeened in his life.) Steven Reagal (The early 90's "Lord" himself, maybe with a full Blue Bloods 3 man tag, or just sole. Late 90's WWE Manley lumberjack version not required, but always a bonus alt.) Every missing Four Horseman I can't say enough that we need a 80'sMWGM version with full stables to allow for, not only 80sMWR to be better, but to see the game progress to how full stables from the 80s and 90s were. |

Regal is my main want at this point. Gang would be fun too. Probably 80/81-95 (even maybe 99) Akeem if done would be the alt for maybe 5 years 87-91 possibly even just 88-90.

Can you imagine if they did do the Blue Bloods. "Lord" Walter Bugle, change Brit Buckingham to 80s only and have 90s "Squire" Brit Buckingham (in place of David Taylor), and last, but so definitely not least, the alt "Duke" Muddy Rivers |

I was just watching Royal Rumble 1988 and now all of a sudden I wish for The Glamour Girls and the Jumping Bomb Angels. Possibly have a Ladies Tag Titles however most likely not considering there would only be the 2 teams

Possibly have a Ladies Tag Titles however most likely not considering there would only be the 2 teams Yeah, been brought up, but didn't seem to have a lot of backing. However I would say there are a few females on 80sMWR that could team in the 80s even though part of their inspirations wouldn't have been a tag team. I had the exact thoughts a couple of years ago when I rewatched RR88. |

I would like some female teams as well. Any ladies tag match is just whoever I toss together and I'd prefer existing teams if possible.

Here is a couple I could think of
Gothica & Jenny Dreadful (90-99)
Gothica & Penny Dreadful (90-99)
Jenny Dreadful & Penny Dreadful (90-99)
Gothica, Penny Dreadful & Jenny Dreadful (90-99)
Almighty Dolla & Kit Pistol (80's) (Moolah & Mad Maxine) (80-85)
Elara Nexus & Trixie (Both good guys and inspired from video games) (88-89 or 90-99)
Chaka Crass & Elfette (I think they would fit well together, I see their characters similar) (80-94)
Sissy The Ghoulie Hunter & Dandelion (Both inspired from Pop Icons) (92-99)
Auntie Voodoo & Mother Russia (Both inspired from GLOW and are bad guys) (80-89)
Countess and/or Revila & Valkyrie (Both from Cimmeternia) (90-92 or 93-99)
Dande & Trixie (The Flyers) (95-99)
Aurora, Countess and/or Revila & Valkyrie (Cimmeternia) (90-92 or 93-94)
Bombshell & Sydney St. Cloud (Very opposite. One is kept hidden the other is barley hidden) (90-99)
I know it's a lot and a few seem irrelevant but if 80's did make a Ladies Tag Division that would be awesome considering there was Women's Tag Champions during the 80's too.

I like the mix of Gothica and the Dreadfuls. All of them though are cool.

I personally don't use any characters as Trish considering Trish only debut in the 2000's while Lita was active in the 90's
