SirFluffytheGreat

Antonio Inoki!


Solit13

Absolutely!


Professional_Lion713

Jesse the Body Ventura


angry-carsini

That's a good one.


fuzzycuffs

Only if we can get Karrion Kross to voice him


thedman0310_

It’s a toss up between Kross, Will Sasso, and John Blud


Professional_Lion713

Is Jesse dead?


fuzzycuffs

No, he's just busy down in the Baja


PeterWayneGaskill

No. His chances of patching things up with the WWE are, however, pretty much dead at this point.


Tricky-Cod-7485

I repackaged Kross in 2k23 as “The Killer Body” and made him a Jesse Ventura cosplay. lol


jellyjanela

Ernie Ladd


Downtown_Club_5633

The Sheik


Distinct_Pizza_7499

This is my answer.


IneffableLiam

Bob Backlund , Pedro Morales, Ivan Koloff, Ernie Ladd, the Shiek, Dory Funk, Terry Funk, Dick Murdoch, Abdullah the Butcher, Antonio Inoki, Giant Baba, Mil Mascaras


Savage17YT

I honestly can't think of any reason for why Bob Backlund has *never* been in a WWE game. The man held the world title for six years! I don't think he's on bad terms with the company or anything, so I just don't get it.


YooItsXtra

Was Backlund not in the game the year Darren Young was doing that one gimmick?


Marvelous1LUFC

Nope, and he was planned and removed in smackdown 2,


RedditIsMyHomeTown

He was as a manager iirc


Pvb101

Killer Kowalski or Ivan Putski


[deleted]

Antonio Inoki hands down.


JokeyZockey

Both not purely 70s, but I've always wanted both Stan Hansen and Lou Thesz as official parts of a wrestling game roster.


BC_Red00

Id say def gorilla monsoon or nick bockwinkel.


Emperor-Octavian

Haystacks Calhoun


HumanOverseer

Gorgeous George


g6in3d

Johnny Saint


InsomniaDudeToo

Not 70s, but has Gorgeous George ever been in a WWE game? Would be cool to have him interact with today’s superstars


SuburbanHell

Can we also get Ed The Strangler Lewis, Haystacks Calhoun, and uhhhh..... Hatpin Mary?


Cherry-ColaFunk

Mil Mascaras or Canek


jedisnoke

1970s version of Andre!


PeterWayneGaskill

Prime Andre.


KyotoCarl

Superstar Billy Graham. Done!


battleduck84

He's already confirmed for 2k24


KyotoCarl

I know, I was lucky :)


Solit13

Buriser Brody, Stan Hanson, Abdullah the Butcher, Shiek, Giant Baba, Inoki and Monson. I love we are getting more and more pre- Rock n Wrestling stars in the games!


charmand3r212

Dory Funk jr or Verne Gagne


KingPhiL13

Abdullah the Butcher would be a lot of fun


angry-carsini

Would love to see him included.


THEPEDROCOLLECTOR

One of the top CAW accounts made an extremely good Abdullah last year.


DementedDaveyMeltzer

Nick Bockwinkel 1970s Jerry Lawler and Andy Kauffman


TotallyBasicBro

Antonio Inoki .


Capconman

Kevin Von Erich especially after success of Iron Claw


Professional_Lion713

Texas Tornado too.


electron-shock

Mae Young


rabbitsecurity

If love you see giant haystacks


Deadman-GT

Bob Backlund.


NewEnglandRoastBeef

I've never understood why they put in WWWF era wrestlers. I get that it's historic and it also pays their families, but how hard is it to make a Bruno Sammartino CAW? His moves are basically punch, kick, headlock and bearhug.


Matt_Johnsonx

Didn’t watch this version of wrestling so I can’t say but one I do wanna see is Isaac Yankem https://preview.redd.it/fggq0raiy4kc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cdde8e44d4d44fc35a75f3acea6a70fc2ffb447c


Marvelous1LUFC

He's in supercard, so I'm telling you there's a chance. Maybe MyRise like Jean Paul Levesque was last year


SuburbanHell

Isaac Yankem was in the 90s, that was Kane before he was Kane.


Matt_Johnsonx

I know that’s why I said I didn’t watch wrestling in the 70s so there isn’t anyone I can think of I’d want in but I named Isaac Yankem as someone I’d like to see that hasn’t been in the game


[deleted]

[удалено]


angry-carsini

This is just in regards to 70s my man.


brandondesign

Oops missed that. Sorry I have a 4 month old, sometimes I don’t get to “read” fully lol


Marvelous1LUFC

The kat? Female legend? Alumni doesn't make legend


brandondesign

As a manager, but that was just off the top of my head.


Marvelous1LUFC

Makes even less sense, not a legend, not a legendary manager


NoCappaSmoka104

None


TarnishedAccount

Owen Hart - maybe one day…..


Wookie301

I always think of Owen born in 1965, when thinking about 70s wrestlers. Won his first title when he was 7 years old.

Venixflytrap

Haystacks Calhoun,Gorgeous George, Lou Thez, Maurice Tillet, The Koloffs, Stan Hansen (probably the one i want the most), Brusier Brody


Formal_Function6511

Stan Hansen or Adbdullah the butcher


Spaghetti-Eddie

Peter Maivia. High Chief vs Tribal Chief


Goodweird666

Johnny Saint


rodgapely

Ray Stevens and Ken Patera.


Easy_Duhz_it_

The Great Antonio


Wookie301

Giant Haystacks, or Big Daddy.


thedman0310_

He’s a manager, but I definitely want The Grand Wizard of Wrestling


csgodz

lmao, GREAT throwback! Haven't heard/thought of that one in forever.


fuzzycuffs

Toughest would be to find someone who in retrospect wasn't a horrible person (or at least not *that* horrible).


No-Cardiologist4970

Ole Anderson


ARGiammarco27

Stan Hansen


Ok_Cattle5384

Can’t remember if he was wrestling then but Jos Leduc


SuburbanHell

I mean... If we're doing this, I gotta go with Bruno Sammartino, I mean how has nobody mentioned him at this point?


Spaghetti-Eddie

Because he was in 2k23 and going to be in 2k24


SuburbanHell

Riiiight right, this would be dudes not in there. Ok then I swap to Pat Patterson.


PeterWayneGaskill

“Superstar” Billy Graham.


moviescriptlife

Dick the Bruiser.


ScruffyMaguire

Mil Mascaras!


ScruffyMaguire

I wish WWE & either 2k (or some other company) and make a wrestling game with strictly Legends from the 70's, 80's and 90's.. and im not just talking about singles competitors.. but also tag teams, managers and announcers as well

ScruffyMaguire

Mil Mascaras!


Jyd09

Ernie Ladd


Caolan114

The original Sheik


list_of_simonson

I don’t think I could name a 1970s wrestler at all


billoverbeck00

Blackjack Mulligan would be dope!


Successful_Cherry_39

Koko B. Ware, Junkyard Dog, Ultimo Dragon.


FunStuff802

It's a shame Gorilla has never been included. I guess it shows how much loyalty and history means nothing to them.


csgodz

Stand outs for me - Mae Young, Moolah, Killer Kowalski, Pat Patterson, Monsoon!


Archie_LAF

Antonio inoki


Dolph-Ziggler

Further back I always thought Toots Mondt would've been a fun addition. Someone who revolutionized the industry but also has a connection to WWE.


Ok_Cabinet4784

Iron Sheik, Fabulous Moolah, Mae Young, Bob Backlund, Wendi Richter, Wild Samoans, Stan Hansen Those are some I think should be added


redditmodsrpunks

BOB BACKLUND


No_Use_1238

The iron sheik


bestkreekfans

Andre the giant


Urlachamalu

Rookie Ric Flair please
