if you include all of the main roster, most of the NXT crew (excluding people who haven't really been anything more than jobbers), you still end up just below 100. Factoring in what showcases they do this year. I imagine a sprinkling of 80s,90s, 00s guys. I think the interview where that 120 number came from mentioned that the 120 doesn't count doubles. And THEN you factor in DLC which by history standards have contained about 5 superstars or so, it makes you really wonder who isn't going to be included. Somehow, someway Layla still won't make the roster cut this year AGAIN.

In all fairness, she's had, what, one match this year in April (Or around then), so it's not like she's someone who's appearing every week.

I have to wonder how the hell that's possible. They must have found some crazy good compression algorithms or something.
(Feel free to go with a joke answer of them taking out something fundamentally important to the games, like... I don't know, submission holds or something)

Even with amount on disc they're still be at least one cut I reckon that'll make the online community fume

Depending how in depth the Austin mode (and whatever else there is) goes, that could go someway in explaining why there's so many spots and why Sylvester Leforte won't make it.
Dan Severn and Double J's time have finally arrived!

120?! Jeez.
With Justin Roberts gone, I imagine all of the ring announcing has been redone this year with Lilian Garcia the lead announcer again. She was only in 2K15 during the Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels Showcase, I assume she only recorded track for those matches.

Plus, they've had a longer time frame to make 2K16 as they already have the foundation in place on the One/PS4. Whereas, with 2K15, they had to create the foundation and the game itself before the release.

"Sorry Zack, we had to leave you out of the game in order to properly render Eva Marie's hair. Maybe next year champ."
I hope they Lillian re-record all the call names from the previous games. I always had fun trying to come up with combinations to represent CAW names like "Mar T Jin 80" and "The Hockey Tok Man".

I will laugh my ass off if they got that many wrestlers in the game by making the graphics look awful.

So concerned about a big roster...what they really should be concerned about is making the game better. Fix those gameplay issues, add more to the creation suite, add in the match types that were in previous games but not in 2K15, etc. Just make a game that is worth a person's investment.

2K hinting at Rollins being the coverboy on that Dev Instagram account.
