You've got to admit, you are kind of implausible



Well, apparently they just announced that Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, X-Pac, Vader, Cactus Jack, Dude Love, Rikishi, and the Nation of Domination (Farooq, D'Lo, and Kama Mustafa) are in 2k16

D'lo loving brown is in the game, that is the most important thing.

I remember my first wrestling game ever was WWF warzone and I destroyed everyone with D'lo, and now I can finally relive that.

It was pretty brutal trying to play Warzone and Attitude compared to the glory of No Mercy. I don't know how you gently caress up wrestling games so badly as often as video game companies have.

My TEW game has reached 1992, the final PPV shows + Main event of 1991 for each major company were:

WWF December Supercard

Bret Hart and Tito Santana defeated Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan

AWA The End of it All V

Shawn Michaels defeated Vader to retain the AWA World Heavyweight Title

WCW Starrcade 1991

Sweet Brown Sugar defeated Chris Adams to retain the WCW World Heavyweight Title

WCWA Christmas Star Wars

Bill Dundee and Stan Lane defeated Robert Gibson and Kevin Sullivan

AJPW World's Strongest Tag League 1991

Genichiro Tenryu and Jumbo Tsuruta defeated Super Strong Machine and Asuhara Hara for the AJPW World's Strongest Tag Team Titles

NJPW Mystical Champions 1991

Steve Williams defeated Nobuhiko Takada to retain the IWGP Heavyweight Title

Needless to say, WCW in this reality is the best, and most entertaining, thing to ever exist. Jimmy Snuka, One Man Gang, Big John Studd, and Kerry Von Erich are their other top 'stars'.

The roster reveal has been so messed up I can't even follow it anymore. Like... Is there anywhere that a sensical list of all combined announcements live that's sorted in a way that makes sense? I'll just wait until the game comes out and look at a list of who is NOT in the game.

No Snitsky or Hassan, meaning the game will never achieve true greatness.

WWE literally has a list of all of the people jesus christ. Only certain people have in game models shown and even fewer have entrances shown.

drat it sure is hard to figure out where a list of the announced roster is. if only https://wwe.2k.com/#roster-block existed.

He debuted as Paul Wight in WWE. Then he rapidly became The Big Show, Paul Wight, and then just the Big Show. So it's debut, black trunks Show.

This is actually very helpful.

So maybe the list of people NOT in the game is much bigger than I thought...

107 already been revealed, with "120+ Unique playable characters" that will be "Shipping with the game"

That leaves at least 13 more spots on the disc with all these guys remaining. There are also 13 wrestlers below that were in 2K15, denoted with a *, so it's possible they they have a higher chance of being in the next roster reveal.

And this doesn't even count DLC, so there is always a chance for more to be in the game.

Main Roster - Superstars
Alex Riley
Big E*
Braun Strowman
Bubba Ray Dudley
David Otunga
Diego
Fernando
Jamie Nobel
Jason Albert
Jey Uso*
Jimmy Uso*
Joey Mercury
Kofi Kingston*
Konnor*
Mark Henry*
Rusev*
Viktor*
Xavior Woods*

Main Roster - Divas
Becky Lynch
Charlotte
Rosa Mendes
Lana

NXT - Superstars
Angelo Dawkins
Apoollo Crews
Baron Corbin
Blake
Bull Dempsey
Chad Gable
Corey Graves*
Dash Wilder
Jason Jordon
Marcus Louis
Mojo Rawley
Murphy
Rhyno
Samoa Joe
Sawyer Fulton
Scott Dawson
Solomon Crowe
Sylvester LeFort
Tye Dillinger

NXT - Divas
Alexa Bliss
Bayley
Carmella
Dana Brooke

These are all wrestlers that have appeared in previous games since WWE 13, but not as a part of the main roster (so no CM Punk, AJ Lee, Alberto Del Rio, Rey Mysterio, Justin Gabriel, etc. + Bill DeMott, Hogan).
