Over 100 independent wrestlers were nominated for IndieMania, and only 32 were entered.

With a spot on the RetroMania Wrestling launch roster up for grabs, the winner of IndieMania has finally been decided.

Welcome Warhorse to RetroMania Wrestling! We gave the fans the opportunity to help us decide the next member of the roster, and Warhorse's fans came up in a big way.

Warhorse's road in the tournament wasn't exactly easy, with matches against Huffmanly, Caleb Konley, Simon Miller, Gentleman Jervis, and then Matt Cross in the finals.

The tournament, which received 46,270 fan votes in total throughout also included the likes Matt Cross, Gentleman Jervis, Simon Miller, RJ City, Colby Corino, Luke Hawx, Chris Bey, Anthony Greene, Sugar Dunkerton, and Alex Zayne.

We've included an early preview of the game sprites for Warhorse. Remember, if your favorite wrestler didn't come out victorious in IndieMania, not all hope is lost. If the game has enough support once it launches, we'll be looking to do several wrestler DLC packs, one of which will be focused on some of the top participants from IndieMania!
