[edit] Starting vs. Unlockable characters

Not all of the characters listed on the main article are available at the start of a new game; "Omega" (Mick Foley) being one of them. Should I compare the starting lineup on my GBA to the list on Wikipedia, perhaps order the wrestlers by their divisions (in the game), perhaps include more information on them (as provided by the game), and move those included on the list but not available on the GBA to a section, possibly titled "Unlocked later"?

[edit] Yasu Ohhashi = Rey Misterio Jr.? Also: Is the wrestler list unneccesary?

I've noticed that this article mentions that Yasu Ohhashi is based on Oscar Gutierrez, better known as Rey Misterio Jr. (or just Rey Mysterio, whichever you prefer). However, I thought that Yasu was supposed to be based on Kaz Hayashi, also known as Shiryu. I really don't know how someone things that Yasu's supposed to be Rey; there's already a character named Mystery Man who's DEFINETLY the Rey-clone, as two of his alternative attires feature the unmistakable Mysterio mask, while the masks in Yasu's alternative attires look nothing like Rey's mask. I bet the movesets are way different too, althought I haven't checked that yet.

I also think that listing all the wrestlers in FPW1 is a bit too much, even considering that the list doesn't seem complete. I'd rather see a smaller list or just some sentences describing what sort of wrestlers that are available, while listing a few examples.

For instance: The playable wrestlers in FPW1 feature not only Japanese talent (like Antonio Inoki, Kensuke Sasaki and Mitsuharu Misawa), but also American talent (like Hulk Hogan, Goldberg and The Rock).

Of course, my writing is not that good, so I'd rather hear some better examples than what I came up with. I should probably have made this two new sections instead of one, but I'm a new to this. --Tren 85.167.34.100 (talk) 11:26, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
