So what I've been doing for the last few months AKI modding wise is creating "WCW Saturday Night" using WM 2000 as a base with a 88-94 era roster. It involves porting VPW2 files, converting Revenge graphics, and seeing what limits I can do with @aj_187 's VPW Studio.

I'm kinda playing loose with the rules set, but Kevin Bacon has a @RyuNumber of 6. - I can't find any footage about the TV Land game , just a listing and reviews, so this is just an assumption. - I don't know if Simon Belmont counts since it's Lords of Shadow.

Quick note. When making the roster for WCW Worldwide, I make a rule to only make a manager if they have a moveset from when they wrestled. This was because of limited roster spaces as well as getting the chance to make wrestlers I wouldn't normally make.

@YungLittlefoot 1. Anyone can literally print their own cover nowadays. 2. Rey Mysterio is a damn legend. The first thing someone should think is "Hopefully this leads to a showcase mode with his old ECW and WCW stuff added in". 3. Hell, we got an evil Vince McMahon face once back in the day.

I think I'll make a New Generation/post Hogan/WWF Raw era game. Mostly because I can add Vpw2 ports (like Bart Gunn, Hakushi), Revenge ports (like Bret Hart, Perfect, Bulldog), and others I always wanted to make (like Owen Hart, Bam Bam Bigelow) So, who would you like to see?

One last thing I keep forgetting to mention. A side reason that I've been working on these retro projects for WM2k is that I eventually want to make a legends mod for VPW2. Most of the graphics for WM2k and VPW2 are interchangable, making this good prep work.
