Couple of observations: There have been lots of dogs. Meanwhile, Undertaker has cornered the undertaking category.
(Incidentally, I didn't realize that yellow wrestling man icon I chose is the OVW logo. I always thought it was just a generic "wrestling" logo.)

I got one of the Heavy Metals prints for a friend's birthday a few weeks ago. They are quality.

The Widowmaker wasn't a murderer. He was the "baddest bull in the woods", so he should be in either Cowboys or General Toughness. Or both.

"Hollywood" Hogan is there, under Place of Origin/Domestic/Tinseltown.
Hulk Hogan's under Physical or Metaphysical Attributes/Similar to a Trademarked Character.
