Legends of Wrestlemania Ideal Roster

First off, does anyone else wish they had 3-D Glasses for last night? Did I miss a memo earlier in the week? Really could have gone for a nice pair with the blue and red eyes. Anyway.

Next month "Legends of Wrestlemania" will be released for XBOX 360 and PS3 gaming devices. The premise of the game is to "Relive," "Rewrite," and "Redefine," matches from Wrestlemania from the 1980's and 90's. This is perfect. I own Raw vs. Smackdown 07 for 360. Shark and I thought we'd play this like we did wrestling games in high school, it was definitely fun, except we had to unlock all the guys we'd heard of. I don't watch the stuff anymore, and there are some hold overs... like your Shawn Michaels and Undertakers, but the most of the best have moved on... either retirement or more commonly death.

That is why "Legends of Wrestlemania" has the chance to be the best game wrestling game not on SEGA or N64. They have released some of the playable characters but not a full list as of yet. The rumor is 40. I have come up with my ideal roster, it does not include managers like Bobby "the Brain" Heenan or commentators, hard to go wrong with JR, King, Vince, Gorilla, Ventura, some combo. Here are the guys I want to see in the game...

1. Hulk Hogan
2. Andre the Giant
3. Ultimate Warrior
4. Roddy Piper
5. Mr. Wonderful
6. King Kong Bundy
7. Macho Man (Macho King) Randy Savage
8. Ted DiBiase
9. Sergeant Slaughter
10. Undertaker
11. Bret Hart
12. Shawn Michaels
13. Yokozuna
14. Diesel
15. Razor Ramon
16. Triple H
17. Bam Bam Bigelow
18. Sycho Sid
19. Stone Cold
20. The Rock
21. Mankind (Mick Foley)
22. Hawk
23. Animal
24. Iron Shiek
25. Rick Rude
26. Mr. Perfect
27. Ric Flair
28. Jake the Snake Roberts
29. Rick the Model Martel
30. Brutus Beefcake
31. Jim Neidhart
32. Demolition
33. Honky Tonk Man
34. Big Boss Man
35. Owen Hart
36. Earthquake
37. Rickey Steamboat
38. Junkyard Dog
39. British Bulldog
40. Adam Bomb
