Zack Ryder looks like Brian Christopher

Wait, Sandow's going to be downloadable but Tensai and Ryback aren't, even though they debuted before him?

Chances are they will be DLC, it's just that Sandow and AJ are the only ones announced right now. Yep. I'm hoping they'll do more DLC this year (they pretty much have to pull out all the stops just to survive as a company), and that we won't get a load of wasted DLC spots like JR and Michael Cole. I'd say after Sandow and AJ, Ryback has top priority, then Prime Time Players (and then Drew by popular demand, dammit!). I honestly don't think Tensai will make it to this one.

Don't forget Layla, she'll probably be part of the first batch of DLC.

I'm wondering if they'll do a separate Diva DLC or just put them all in together...

So, we have rich snob Triple H with the Pedigree, crotch-chopping Triple H with knee strikes and the arrogant-ass attitude and current day Triple H... with all of the above!
Boy, what a good use of the Attitude Era roster. I know that comes across as HHHate, but one of the two wasn't needed. I'm thinking Helmsley, considering DX was a good part of the Attitude Era, therefore green-tights HHH would make sense.
Also, considering they just create a new model and slap the same moveset on for them I'm guessing, I'm not looking forward to the Faces of Foley. Come to think of it, has the Cactus Clothesline been in any THQ game?

Blue blood HHHunter really does stick out like a sore thumb among everyone else.
It's also probably safe to say there weren't that many people clamoring to play as that iteration of Triple H again.

Yeah Helmsley seems totally unnecessary. I hope like last year they have three batches of DLC
Batch #1: Tensai Sandow Ryback Drew Zeke PTP Few alt. attires for current Superstars
Batch #2:
AJ Lee Vickie Layla Sable Miss Jackie (these are weak guesses) Natalya
Batch #3: Val Venis Rikishi Too Cool Gangrel Steve Blackman Few Attitude alt. attires
Is there still no chance of Kurt as a suprise? The idea of playing Kurt vs. Bret seems too awesome
Also, very disappointed in the lack of All Will Suffer T-shirt as entrance attire

My very minor nitpicks/observations:
Lack of Daniel Bryan's beard is quite disappointing.
Brock's character model looks much better.
Taker doesn't have his new coat sadly.
No pink T-shirt for Dolph sadly.
Jericho's jacket seems a little off.
No entrance attire for Brodus.
Booker T is actually dark.
Ryder looks too blonde.
3 Faces of Foley all look exactly the same with a costume swap, and the hair looks weird.
Decent roster but half of the mid card seems like it's missing.
I just hope the weight issue is addressed. Don't wanna see Dolph power slamming the Big Show.

. Come to think of it, has the Cactus Clothesline been in any THQ game? Was watching a gameplay video yesterday, it's in the game this year. I'm guessing it's Foley's "against the ropes" move.

They shoe horned Hunter Hearst Helmsley into Legends of Wrestlemania and they've shoe horned him into an Attitude Era influenced game as well. To me it would be the equivalent of having Blue Chipper Rocky Maivia or The Ringmaster, the crap versions of two much more popular wrestlers.
The more I think about it I personally wouldn't have minded if they'd just used the attitude era models for guys like Jericho, Big Show, Rock etc. I think saying this is the biggest roster ever is a bit cheap when there are so many guys with two or three versions.

it's quite strange that they announced Kharma, when they haven't announced released superstars in the past.

Have to like how the Bellas were on the leaked roster, then they denied them only for them to sure enough be in anyway.
I'm not sure which is the more inexplicable roster addition though, Helmsley or 2004 Cena. No complaints about the latter, though, but the former... Yeah, seeing as you could easily just make the Attitude Triple H's tights partially white and have the same basic look I don't get the point.

Wasn't Hunter Hearst Helmsley more of a New Generation thing anyway? I thought they were basing this around 1998, that was at least 2 years before.
Another thing, as much as I'm pleased with his inclusion, how come JBL is in again?

I suppose it does make sense seeing as 2004 Cena is in too.

Just dust off the old JBL model & give him a little update, and there you go!
