User blog:Ms.HamatoAlexander/Classic TMNT characters in Rise?

Okay, so Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is having a lot of fun introducing a lot of new original characters to the franchise. From Meat Sweats and Baron Draxum, to Todd Capybara and Bullhop, it's fun to see what the creators have to offer.

But a lot of people are curious/wondering what or when some characters of TMNT's past would be introduced. Besides the four Turtles, April and Splinter, we don't have an awful lot of older TMNT characters in this 2018 cartoon's cast. Yes, we do have the Purple Dragons (I think it's pretty cool that they're tech-savvy, because the internet is a dangerous place) and Baxter Stockboy (our beloved Baxter Stockman, but now a bratty take on Jimmy Neutron), but that's basically it.

So I wanna ask you guys reading this post; which past TMNT character would you like to see in Rise of the TMNT, and what do you think they'd be like? If you're not in the show, but still have a say on who should appear, feel free to share who you'd think would be a fun edition.

And I did hear from someone that Brandon Mychal Smith state that Casey Jones and Shredder might appear at some point in this series. It was from an Instagram livestream, so I can really prove if it's confirmed information or not. But if it is true, keep a lookout for any hints in the series that may suggest that (And I do believe the Mystic/Dark Armor might be tied in with the Shredder somehow).
