Yes I like these guys and yes I'd love to see them added I've never gotten the "nWo" out of my system. But in general I've been doing some checking. Unfortunately a lot of people consider them jokes now because of their personalities. But let's be honest these guys were huge with the NWO. Remember they are probably the only two wrestlers to leave the WWF for WCW and become much bigger stars. Anybody else like to see them in. After all Legends of Wrestling is about wrestlers who at one time were at the top of the world.

I wouldn't say the LWF is about those who were at the top of the world at one time. We'd have to get rid of some already in, but that's another discussion. Hall and Nash were pretty big in the WWF before going to WCW, but I guess they did get even bigger with the NWO. You could use the drunk Vendetta card for Hall if you wanted My opinion is if they were available (meaning control their name), and were approached about it I think they would say no due to no money being involved. Just my thoughts. Check the Yahoo Legends group they probably have a bootleg card already made.

Hi , Hall & Nash in the Legends , I wouldn't really want them in it . If they were in a set I would play the cards . From things I have read (okay dont believe everything you read ? - I know !) . Some of the things that they did (especially Nash) helped kill the business (especially in WCW) . Hall I prefered him as Razor Ramon .

I do agree about money possibly being a problem with these two. But how would they not be in control of their own name? They use their real names son Vince wouldn't be able to own them, Diesel, Razor & and probably nWo are WWE copyrighted but not Hall & Nash.

I hear the argument about money. On the flipside of that, however, is the that when getting into the era of Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, you are getting into an era that saw wrestlers make plenty of money. They don't have the bitterness, especially Nash, that some older wrestler may have who missed out on the huge paydays.

Hall & Nash... They are the nWo, Nash is my favorite of the two and it would be great to see these two in the Legends set. If it ever did happen they did agree to be in the Legends set, maybe we could see the first new original idea with these two guys having a nWo angle but with a new name.

The wrestler formerly known as IRS aka Mike Rutundo cannot wrestle as MIKE RUTUNDO even though that is his real name because when he wrestled for WWF back in the 80's his gimmick was his real name so Vince owns the copyright to it. If you notice he know wrestles as MIKE RUTUNDA.

IRS, Mike Rotundo, Mike Rotunda, etc. etc.
His real name is Lawerence Michael Rotunda, with an A. That is why Vince could own the Rotundo name, it really isn't his name.

I don't know who has the rights, but Mike Rotundo flat out said no to a Legends card.
I've tried to contact Scott Hall but haven't had any luck yet. I don't have any contact info for Kevin Nash.

As for Kevin Nash, try his OFFICIAL web site! Although the site says it's not a direct contact, it does say they can contact him on your behalf, Mr. Filsinger. Maybe Mr. Nash might reply favorably (and hopefully get you in contact with Mr. Hall as well! ):
www.kevinbigsexynash.com/contact.html
By the way, I have seen Official web sites for Nikita Koloff and Andre in the past. I hope you have tried to contact those sites as well?

Mike Rotundo would be a great edition to the legend set especially with Barry Windham
To bad he said no

Yeah, I'd have loved Rotundo. He was always one of my favorites.

Rotundo played a money-grubbing character didn't he...wasn't it Michael Wall Street or something like that? Interestingly his response to a playing card was all about money. Hmmm. Maybe I'm mixing up characters.
I interupted Nikita Koloff at dinner one evening at a restaurant with his wife. He answered his cell phone and we spoke briefly. He asked me to send him info and I did and then nothing happened. He hasn't said yes or no and I suppose I'll want to press him for an answer after New Beginning 2119 is finished.
As a matter of fact, once I called Ted DiBiase and he was in a motel room with Nikita. I believe Nikita is very religious as is Ted. They were doing a promotion together. It's kinda funny the situations the Legends game has gotten me into.

Tom, your first call after 2119 and G-Con is over must be to Nikita Koloff. Be sure and tell him DiBiase is in, may help. Then there could be a chance of getting in touch with Ivan Koloff.

I hope you get Nikita Koloff and if you get him you can get Ivan Koloff as well
Maybe Ted Dibiase can help get his good friend Sting

As for the DiBiase / Nikita promotion team, it's funny how things really are behind-the-scenes, huh? Reminds me of Ric Flair on his DVD praising Dusty! ;D
Thanks for replying, Mr. Filsinger! Good luck at signing Sting, Hall, Nash, (Andre?,) and Ivan & Nikita Koloff!
