I was trying to think of a way to put together a WWF set that didn't include all of the new guys.. and figured since the WWF changed to the WWE in 2002 and the WWF didn't become the WWF until 1980.. a set that only included the WWF champion was fairly easy to put togetether. I'm not really sure if the 1982 and 1983 sets would be considered rookies or not.. assuming they are.. this is the check list i cam up with. The only WWF card i have is the 1985 topps hogan.. but think this would be a kinda fun set .. any thoughts?

    I love the concept. Just eyeballing it, I know Steve Austin had a WCW card in about 1995 as Stunning Steve Austin. That would likely be his RC.
    I am buying and trading for RC's of Wilt Chamberlain, George Mikan, Bill Russell, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, and Bob Cousy!

    i'm not sure where to beging with the WCW or NWA.. i only followed the WWF from like 1984-1990.. i would imagine most of the guys would appear on both lists though.. here are the first 30 WWF champions.. i couldn't find a card for Stan Stasiak.. i've also never heard of this guy.. but according to wikipedia he held the title for 10 days in dec of 1973. I could have missed some rookies in the 90s.. there wasn't really one main set or the Wrestler could have been in the WCW or something like steve austin and i missed it. i would think that Mankind would have a card before 1999.. i thought he was an old nwa guy. but couldn't find one.
