Thea Hail, Karmen Petrovic, Ridge Holland, Bronco Nima and Lucien Price are all low carders I feel like. They all barely appear on NXT anymore and when they do they're just there to lose. Ridge Holland + Karmen Petrovic especially with them now being Evolve wrestlers too. Aside from them I think the NXT card looks perfect on this site atm

  @Draysin Martin maybe, yeah. I just don't believe they're actually "inactive" (or anyone in nxt) if they just appear from time to time and mainly do house shows. and even when they do appear they're just low carders. people like tamina or naomi make more sense as inactive but thats just imo

Deleted LFG from WWE all as well? It makes no sense. LFG, Evolve, and WWE ID are still considered WWE, so they should be added

  @Andy You have a good point, but NXT is there, so it would make sense if the other 3 were (LFG I understand but Evolve and ID maybe, whatever you want, you know more than me)

Asuka, Bron Breakker, Brutus Creed and El Grande Americano have very outdated renders. Try giving the former three their 2k25 renders, and El Grande his Speed title render. Thank you so much.

  @Wright Estrada I updated the Creed Brothers. I couldn't find a newer Asuka render. For El Grande, I'd like to give him the render with Kaiser under the mask, but no official ones have been released yet, so I'll wait.

  @Andy Can you update Cody Rhodes, Tiffany Stratton, The Miz, and Drew McIntyre’s renders, they are so outdated from 2021, 2022, and 2023

  @Andy God's Work, you're doing here.
  
  And Bron, sure, they haven't updated him on the website... But they regularly use the render he has in 2k25. (Goatee, not full beard, red "Badass/Meaner Than Evil" singlet)
  
  The thing is that Breakker and Brutus Creed upsetted me the most in terms of how WWE are inconsistent with renders... They're attempting to remedy that with Breakker as far as I know, but still. Not updated.
  
  I actually have the picture that they use for the shows and promotion material. I want to send it to you so you can put it here. I want to know if there is a way

I feel like Dragon Lee isn't a low carder anymore with how much screentime he has gotten, triplemania main event and a win against tag champ
also, some random site suggestions but could the evolve/id belts be in their own section below nxt? and in wwe:all, either show evolve and ID too, or don't show LFG at all. make it consistent (when you click on women/men, you DO see evolve and id both but in all you do not)
1 more inconsistency is in extras, Adrianna Rizzo is still under the managers tab when she's not anymore

  @Max The Great hands & Tasha Steelz are more like Tweeners because all they do is either get involved in Ali's matches that's one Heelish thing and plus Myron Reed is Face as he's back in TNA helping out Zachary Wentz who is face
