Other than managers who haven't been announced and the likelihood of a number of alternates being included (given they've hinted at that and their claim about the size of the on-disc roster isn't accurate without it), here's our full roster -

Put the ones I personally won't be porting over in red. Classic Batista over "current" Batista because that's the Batista I prefer and the one that had the most success.

[Heartbreaker]

I'm so hyped about Ivory being DLC! It was pretty obvious Jackie was gonna make it in, but I totally did not expect Ivory. She's one of my favourite female wrestlers of all time and I remember being very little and playing as her on Wrestlemania 2000 and No Mercy a lot because I liked her purple outfits.

[Dave the Dave]

I was annoyed they removed Xpac because they would have had all of DX finally. I'll add in Greg Valentine in his place

[Talent Name]

Now I can't make X Factor unless I download them all

I'll likely grab CAWs of Shamrock, Ryback, Stevie Ray, DiBiase, Barrett, X-Pac, Batista, Punk, Hogan, Mysterio, and Khali. Can take or leave the rest.

Also, Kidd wasn't cut.

[Ron Woodsman aka Shempaholic]

DiBiase was only in 2K16 as a manager, and still could be in as they haven't announced managers yet. Would've been nice to have him in as a playable wrestler.

In general I have no earthly idea why they do that manager bullshit. Miss Elizabeth's perfectly functional as a character, why shouldn't I be able to have her against Lita?

[CMWaters]

I just want DiBiase to be playable again so we can justify why the Million Dollar Championship is in the game.

I've ended up giving it to JBL most times.

I could kind of understand it for someone like Paul Bearer or Paul Heyman where they aren't actual wrestlers, but it's not as if they couldn't make them playable wrestlers in a video game. I mean, this is a series where the Terminator was a playable character; I think you could lighten up a tad on restricting certain characters out of "realism".

[Deleted]

Gamestop's site's restocked the NXT Edition for the PS4 if anyone wants to grab that. I might given the absurd pricing on those characters otherwise makes the extra money spent on the Balor figure and other stuff kind of worth it, but I already preordered the digital deluxe so little late for that.

[Emmet Russell]

Roode - who I didn't expect - and Rhyno and Hansen are the only few I'm disappointed in not getting in the game - the rest of the roster is great.

I just wish they'd mention something about being able to edit current Superstars like they could previously. I'm getting worried they removed it.

I doubt they removed it, they probably just didn't expand it at all and didn't find it worth bringing up yet.

Probably.

Wrestling games for years have taken out features for no reason, so I feel sceptical.

[The Tim Duncan Experience]

Has anyone ever made a good Kenny Omega CAW?

[Deleted]

Come to think of it... What Halloween Havoc we getting with Goldberg then if 1998 is coming with the Showcase DLC? He only competed at three of them, and 1999 looks basically the same (well, stage-wise, ring is pretty different) while 2000 he faced Kronik in a three minute squash, not exactly a major match even though it was for some insane WCW reason the main event. Can't see them including 1998 in both because it'd cut out one of the things they'd be selling the Goldberg pack at an overcharged rate later.

Or is the one with Goldberg just going to be a one to one port of the 1996 one from 2K16? Not that I'm opposed to that but kind of lame being DLC after being in the previous year's game.

Also, I know we're getting the traditional one, but I'd love to have Nitro's Star Trek set.

[Cvslfc123]

Sting Wolfpac? Could this mean they will have the Wolfpac theme in the game at last?

[And Eee]

Think i'll only get the Future Stars pack. Preordered the NXT Edition so that will cover all the other dlc i want. The legends just don't do anything for me except for Eddie Guerrero but I won't buy it just for him. Overall pretty disappointing DLC for me at least.

If so, the unannounced alternates better include Kevin Nash and Scott Hall.

That said, I'd check and see if Sting used the Wolfpac theme at that show but the Network isn't wanting to cooperate at all right now. Keeps sending error messages any time I try to search and the PPV section's showing up empty.

Edit: Found it on Dailymotion and yes, he came out to the Wolfpac theme.
