Can't remember this being brought up. Looks like there's an alternate outfit for HBK using his old tights. Gives me hope that we could get Macho King attire as well as Electric Cowboy attire for Macho Man.

It's not an alternate attire, the tights are HBK's only outfit this year.

Been wanting to mention for the past few days a great storyline that played out in Universe over the course of a couple of days that I'm thinking of having as 2011's swan song for me. Basically, after repeatedly getting to the end of the Rumble only to come up short, this given year to Punk who went on to beat Barrett for the World title, Christian won Money in the Bank. Then he got on a big win streak, rising in the rankings over the course of a long feud with Ted DiBiase and Ezekiel Jackson until winning the Intercontinental title. Meanwhile, Punk had the title all year going through a wide variety of challengers; this culminated in Christian winning the Rumble and not cashing in Money in the Bank, instead beating Punk in the main event of Mania. Then post-match DiBiase came out, which worked nicely with the fact that Ezekiel won that year's Money in the Bank match.

Actually, kind of feel like listing all of Punk's challengers over the year just since it made for some very interesting dynamics -

Backlash: Big Show
Extreme Rules: Big Daddy V - Extreme Rules
The Bash: Alex Riley - Ladder Match
Night of Champions: Alex Riley, Big Show, Alberto del Rio, and David Otunga - Scramble
SummerSlam: The Miz and Big Show
Hell in a Cell: The Miz and Alex Riley - Hell in a Cell
Bragging Rights: Alberto del Rio
Survivor Series: Batista
TLC: The Miz, Alex Riley, and Big Show - TLC
Royal Rumble: David Otunga
Elimination Chamber: David Otunga and Big Show

Probably the most varied title reign I've had. Which beats how Raw for the past couple of years worth of gameplay has been a nonstop roulette of Orton, Jarrett, Samoa Joe, and Cena.

Surprised they didn't take out Foley's entrance like they usually do for people being put up for download in order to more properly screw you over. Didn't stop them with Batista or Shawn Michaels, though. Also weird that after taking out Carlito's entrance entirely in 2011 they put it back in for 2012, though not complaining.

And what, no face Jericho? So much for updating Mason Ryan's entrance or creating the fun version of Jericho, I guess.

Edit: Wait, nevermind, missed the Y2J listing. Still, Batista and Michaels kind of tick me off.

Just noticed that Orton must has 2 attires, bearded and no-beard.

[Jedi-El of Tomorrow]

We're getting an actual Warrior entrance! Please also have the Gorilla Press followed by Big Splash in there.

[Hawk Hart]

I really like that second stunner Austin uses...

[The Tee Why]

I really REALLY wish they'd just put a new stunner in where they dont flip around, its pretty hard to use my favorite wrestler when I know his finisher sucks >=/

So basically...if you didn't preorder the game, you don't get the rock then.

if you buy DAY ONE from like, best buy you could get him. I got Assassins Creed Revelations yesterday, and got the best buy preorder bonus, and thats apparently a pretty low quantity bonus in terms of availability

I used to be against preordering, but honestly, dropping 10 bucks to ensure you get something you REALLY want(being the rock as a playable character) it's really no big deal, I find preordering to be a pain in the ass but for good bonuses, ill do it.

[ZeChairman]

Hoping Hogan's moves are back in along with his entrance. Yeah, there's a leg-drop in the game now, but it's not the same without the ear-cup taunt.

[Famous Rocking Chimes]

OHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[Deleted]

I just got All-Stars. I LOVE it. Though I feel the controls are gonna f*** me up when I get 12

[Totorob101]

Wow Macho looks fantastic,and the attire is my favorite of his so really great to see! Im looking forward to editing his colours! But i have to say,im a bit disapointed that still the Divas pack DLC2 has yet to be shown,yet DLC3 has,not that im complaining but its pretty odd.I really want to see how Kharma looks in game but i dont expect to see anything soon for the Divas.

[Deleted]

So can't wait to make the Hasbro figure cowboy attire... Was my favorite Hasbro

[Heartbreaker]

So, we already have a bug. Apparently, custom music doesn't play after the match...

That better not be the case! Still don't know if they fixed the "New Jack Glitch" or the volume of the custom tracks being amped up. I swear, it's always 1 step sideways and 1 step back with this company.
