best “transitional” old worlds?

so i’ve fallen in love with a lot of old worlds lately lol. i def won’t be keeping any for at least another few months, maybe even a year or two, but once my pulchra is a bit larger and has had at least one rehousing, i’d say it’s likely my next tarantula would be an old world. i’m not sure if that’s ill advised of me, but i’ve built a fondness to a lot of old world species more than i have any particular new world species. the question is, are there any old worlds considered good for transitioning into old world keeping?
for frame of reference, some species on my future want list are a. ezendami (which i hear can be one of the more docile baboons,) b. simoroxigum, h. gigas, vietnam silver, and s. philippinus. i also have c. psychedelicus on there but there is absolutely no way i am going to find one of those for a somewhat affordable price lol, that’s more of an end goal dream species. i am definitely open to suggestions of other species that are not currently on my “want list.” i know a lot of the ones on my list have a reputation for being incredibly fast and defensive. so that being said, old world keepers, what would you recommend as a good first old world so i can note those species down to look into? would any on my future want list be good to keep as a first? or is old world keeping more of a “dive headfirst into it when you feel you’re ready” than a transitional type of thing?
