Something very fishy is going on with this game.

I'm suspecting that it's more that this game's pretty much got nothing in terms of new features so they're holding back the roster to reveal last minute to distract from the lack of anything else. I'm also starting to wonder if there might have been a grand NXT purge. The only people announced from NXT are Gargano, the Street Profits, and Dream, who happen to have been the champions at the time the roster would have been coming together. They've also announced literally no one from 205 Live. Good grief, if they go from giving us everyone from John Cena to Oney Lorcan in 2K19 to a roster of 50 or 60? Oof. I will legit rage if that's somehow the case. Like, they better put in at least 300 CAW slots to offset that.

It’s weird as f*** that we’re this close to the release of the game with so little information, but I don’t think there’s some grand sinister motive behind it.

I'm sure they'll be in, but not having the Undisputed Era already confirmed is odd. I hope there aren't a bunch of NXT people about to lose out on royalty checks this year, especially right after the big premiere of the brand on USA full-time.

So the most concrete piece of information we have about this game is that it is possible to suplex Drew McIntyre. Good to know. That is all you can do with this game. Suplex Drew McIntyre.

Something else I find interesting - zero word on what the menu music's going to be. Usually that's something they're pushing early and often.

It was technically never confirmed beforehand that you could damage or get the upper-hand on Triple H. If this game plays nearly as well as SvR 2009, then we'd be lucky.

Maybe they’re holding off on showing anything because the new Raw and Smackdown sets are gonna be in it and they don’t wanna ruin anything. (Chances of that being the reason are less than zero)

I'm kind of wondering if the budget's drastically dropped this year. It'd explain a lot - Yukes leaving could be cutting costs by making the game in-house, the apparent smaller roster could be due to trimming some fat there (which'd in particular explain why 205 is MIA and there's very little known NXT content), the gimmick DLC could be so that they can just rehash people already being paid to be in the base game to potentially cut costs there, the lack of soundtrack news could be opting to cut that to avoid paying licensing... It adds up.

Considering the lack of showing....anything I think this is the one game I'm not even gonna get this year.

2K are getting as good as WWE themselves at treating their fan base with contempt.

Playing 2K19 for the first time in awhile and legitimately one of my most wanted improvements for 2K20 is fixing when the crowd gets caught in an endless loop of doing the same stock booing sound effect every two seconds. It's unbelievably grating.

How are you gonna have a game out in less than a month and not show ANYTHING from it? Outside of that first trailer, there's been complete silence. It really reflects the total lack of respect these companies have towards the consumer. "We don't have to show shit because you dummies will eat up whatever we toss out." Much like with WWE, the faster there's a competitor on the market, the better.

It's unbelievably grating. Pretty sure I also hear that same booing sound effect on WWE video packages. That's just lazy.

Southpaw sounds interesting but the rest.... Yeah, DLC is nothing but people already in-game, lame.
