![]() ![]() Smackdown actually has two very notable additions who didn’t appear in last year’s game, that being former NXT Champion Bobby Roode and WWE Champion Jinder Mahal. Shelton Benjamin isn’t on the 2K18 roster, however since his return is literally less than two weeks old at this point, it’s completely clear why. The only thing noticeable here is that they are an element of the current WWE Champion’s presentation, so Jinder might look somewhat lonely without them. Added to Jinder Mahal at Backlash, this cruiserweight tag team is currently more like managers or J & J Security types rather than actual members of the roster. Finally, Samir and Sunil, The Singh Brothers. Another case of great entrance music potentially lost though. Mike & Maria Kanellis are recent roster additions so that’s also understandable, but with the way they have almost immediately disappeared from television after debuting, they might not have made the cut anyway. If that is included anyway, there’s not much else his inclusion could accomplish. While his inclusion would have been an excellent way to set a bottom line for stats among the wrestlers the only thing diminished here is the potential lack of his entrance music in the game. James Ellsworth isn’t listed, however, he is a unique situation in the WWE eco-system. Over on the Smackdown side of things, the omissions are actually mostly understandable. Since then, he’s proven an interesting character and worthy of inclusion, which makes this miss more notable than it might have been. Elias is a different story, having been in NXT beforehand and then promoted to Raw following Wrestlemania it’s an indication that he was not high on the WWE internal radar before making his debut. Both are disappointing however, The Hardy’s surprise return at Wrestlemania must have meant they missed the 2K18 main roster cut by mere weeks. Omissions from wrestlers currently listed on the Raw roster are Elias and The Hardy Boys. Even Paige and The Bellas made the cut, despite their recent absences. Another interesting note, the women’s rosters for both Raw and Smackdown appear to be comprehensive without reservation. Some omissions from 2K17 to note: Austin Aries, Alberto Del Rio, The Dudley Boys, Jack Swagger, Simon Gotch and Stardust are no longer under the WWE banner and therefore couldn’t be expected to make the cut this year. Surprisingly and pleasantly, the main rosters are largely intact despite their combined size. Some miscellaneous points of interest to begin. ![]() With that in mind, let’s look at the real WWE rosters, the corresponding video game rosters from this year and last year, as well as having a little speculation for DLC to see how comprehensive this roster is and could be. You could argue that the game is worth a purchase simply based on roster alone since superstars move in and out of WWE yearly – there is a chance to never have this ridiculous amount of talent officially in one game again. The Raw and 205 Live Cruiserweights are also well represented with almost two-thirds of their number included as well. All the distinct WWE rosters are well represented in this lineup, with the men’s, women’s, and tag teams on Raw, Smackdown, and NXT all covered in the majority. ![]() Past games would have notable fringe stars missing or sometimes half of the tag team division, but this year looks much, much better. ![]() Every patch has screwed my game in some way.The full roster for the next WWE game has been revealed and it’s looking like this might be the most complete version they’ve ever put out. Especially since your universe mode is only as good as your imagination.Īnyone else with this problem? A fix? Please don't say a patch for a fix. It's not game breaking, but it's really freaking annoying. So my problem is everytime I leave Universe Mode, only my belts from Nitro are vacated. Belts are WCW World Heavyweight championship, Intercontinental, United States and World Tag (all WCW). Holds WcW Women's World Championship, Cruiserweight, Universal and Women's tag (all wcw) Thunder has a roster of 50, which is all female wrestlers and male cruiserweights. Nitro has a roster of 33 with the belts WCW World Television, WCW European, WCW Hardcore and the WCW World Tag. Run Monday night Nitro, Wednesday Thunder (for my cruiserweights and female wrestlers) and WCW saturday night (also have 12 PPVs for WCW). Ghey.īut anyways, after a million different Universe attempts I have a solid thing going. I mean you could have a lvl 4 fan fav talk to shane once just before the RR and get placed as a company man. Got tired of how inconsistent the story mode is. ![]()
