Even with just the known signed talent, they could have a really nice run with this line. And who knows, maybe in a few years some of the ones who aren't signed will be signed.

With Bruno returning in 2K23, i'd say it's likely he's under some sort of deal again.
An Ultimate Bruno, with TrueFX and updated parts to feature double joints, and the Ultimate torso, would look amazing!

An Ultimate Bruno, with TrueFX and updated parts to feature double joints, and the Ultimate torso, would look amazing! I hope so but still unknown. His last elite was a long time ago now. Even Muraco was back in 2019. |

I hope we get hart foundation with soft goods jackets and a macho man Not sure that would happen in this line, the Hart Foundation didn't start wearing the jackets until the summer of 1990 after the LJN contract was expired. The tag team set that LJN did put out of them was from their heel days when they really didn't have any accessories. It would be great if we could get two sets of Ultimate's of the Hart Foundation, one from their heel days (Coliseum Collection) and one from their babyface days (regular UE line). The coliseum collection could come with the silver tag team titles and glasses for the Hitman, then they can use the rest of the budget to work on more heads for both guys. The regular UE line could release them with the gold tag team titles, the Sgt. Pepper jackets, silver shades for Bret, and regular shades and the beanie for Anvil. |

Seeing as they’ve been tweaking the LJN looks here and there, I think I’d rather have the sgt pepper jackets on these as they’d look amazing with this light blue packaging rather than the pink clashing with the red ultimate edition packaging. |

Coliseum kept me collecting. I’ve sold almost everything else but this line has the best packaging since OG Legends.

Steve has said he could make just about talent work, but no disrespect to them some would be a hard sell.

Really hoping we get Randy and Liz in series 4. Me too. Who would you pair Steamboat with though? The animal would have been good but he’s taken. |

Savage, Muraco, Honky, Hammer, Hercules (if he were signed) would all make great choices. Also, they could put him in a wave with Harley Race, two NWA legends in same wave. Had they not done Rude and Jake already, either of them would have been good to pair with Ricky. |

Really hoping we get Randy and Liz in series 4. Honestly, that Liz attire sucks. Be a waste of an UE spot IMO. Much rather him be paired with Steamboat, Tito, Honky, or DiBiase. |

I don’t care about her attire. It’ll probably be the only shot at an Ultimate Liz and she’d look great packed with Macho. |
