Why is Scott Steiner so unlikely to get signed? Lots of reasons: He recently was working for TNA or whatever it is called today (not sure if he still is), he said in the past that the Legends deal they offered him wasn't worth the paper it was written on (not enough money), he trashes the HOF, and he hates/bashes HHH and has even gone after Stephanie (making comments that she sleeps with a Macho Man statue in her bedroom, which is playing off of the rumors that Randy and her had a thing years ago). Similar to Marty Jannety recently who made nasty comments about Steph (along with being involved in the lawsuit, his comments about sleeping with his daughter and allegations that he still has a drug/drinking problem). Jeff Jarrett's bad blood is when he held Vince up for more money to drop the title to Chyna (his contract expired while he was IC champion and he was going to WCW so Vince gave him what he wanted so he didn't pull an Alundra Blayze). I think he is more likely if he stops trying to compete with WWE. I could see things being mended for the HOF (like Warrior -held Vince up for money and Alundra with trashing the belt).

I don't think ravens part of that. He’s not, but he’s part of a different lawsuit that has to do with royalties from the network. that's what i thought

Harley Race was a much bigger name than Owen Hart.

I guess hot take: Harley Race was a much bigger name than Owen Hart. In his time, no question. Race is one of the greatest NWA champions of all time. Problem is that no one really knows him for that because when he was a huge draw it was during the territory days before major TV. He's mostly remembered for his run in WWF as King Harley Race and being Vader's manager.

We're missing someone vital to the line, an early performer who made it to several episodes of Raw. The man, the myth, the legend that is L.A. Gore!

Dear god, he looks like a dollar store DDP. And a goal post mixed with a little Curtis Axel in the second one.

Whether people want to admit it or not Jeff Jarrett is a huge part of history. I'd say he is the new somewhat attainable big name Jeff Jarrett is one of my biggest wants of all - way way up my list. But I generally consider that unrealistic. Why do you feel he is somewhat attainable? Just curious, I'm hoping you know something I don't. Sadly I don't, I just feel like compared to Owen (never happening) and Benoit (def never happening), JJ could presumably happen one day if Anthem boots him permanently.

If we're talking major names then:
Steiner Bros (mostly Scott from his singles run)
Sable (THE AE Diva)
Chyna (to complete DX, sorry Tori)
Bob Backlund
Owen Hart (to complete Hart Family)
Gorilla Monsoon

Biggest omission has to be Bob Backlund. He has the 2nd longest reign as world champ. And he can’t be brushed off as an old wrestler in a forgotten era because he was a major character in the New Gen era. He’s still somewhat relevant today with recent appearances as Young’s life coach. He got scanned last year for a modern figure. I'm guessing it was scrapped. Hopefully we can still get either a 70's or 93 version here soon.

Dress shirt with red bow tie, black pants, IRS suspenders. Package him with a Winged Eagle Belt and a mic.

Probably not major names but tons of main eventers still to make. Hopefully one day they actually can make some of these guys.

For those of you saying Jarrett "held up" Vince. This is incorrect. During that time they were paid weeks after their schedule and quarterly bonuses/merch money. Jarrett was owed something like $180k for work he had already done and a lump sum at the completion of his contract. He didn't force Vince to pay him $300k to drop the belt to Chyna or he would bring it to Nitro. Completely false information that has become urban legend at this point.
