The ring announcing has sounded awful in recent games. Not sure if that’s their fault, or Jojo, or whoever may be voicing it, but that sounded really good from Greg Hamilton. Honestly I don’t know why they just don’t take audio from TV and use that. That’d be authentic.

Looks pretty cool. LOVE Greg Hamilton's announcing! Not a fan of the crowd chanting "ONE FALL!" after Greg's "this match is scheduled for one fall!", as I'm personally not a fan of that chant. But I appreciate the authenticity. Really glad they kept his old theme, nothing can replace it in my opinion. Just need the crazy zooming in and out like on NXT, and we're good.
Am I the only one seeing frame drops? I've seen clear frame drops at a couple of points throughout the entrance, both times I've watched the video, especially noticeable when the camera pans down on the stage. Yet I can't find a single YouTube comment mentioning it. A friend watched it and didn't notice any frame drops either. Just me?

I’m surprised the “one fall” chant is even in there since Vince hates it.

I'm liking the models of Samoa Joe and Murphy, but is anyone else finding it odd that they've added that pixelation effect to the LED tron and ramp? They didn't really need to make any adjustments to that aspect of the game since the tron/ramp in real life doesn't look like that.

I’m surprised we are into September and we haven’t had a second roster reveal yet.

With the way 2K has been revealing information about this game, I have a feeling it won’t reinvent the wheel. If it’s anything like 2K19, I’ll enjoy it. The inclusion of The Fiend and the Originals content got my preorder, but we should know the full roster by now. Here’s hoping that the Deluxe Edition unlocks early like last year.

Waiting until the price drops around Black Friday to pick up this years game. Beyond the fiend inclusion I have yet to see anything exciting. If they really wanted to wow I need to see GM mode, WarGames playable match, more custom arena mods, etc...
Im totally satisfied with last years game at the moment especially knowing we're losing Jericho this year.

I was really excited for the Showcase, but their list of matches revealed how much they've messed it up, with two startling omissions. Becky VS Sasha from TakeOver: Unstoppable and Sasha VS Bayley from TakeOver: Respect are both missing, despite being two vital matches. Meanwhile forgettable matches like Sasha VS Nia from Fastlane and Becky VS Mickie from Elimination Chamber are included. How could they have done this so badly? Becky VS Sasha is still highly regarded, and crucial in proving just how good the NXT women were, while Sasha VS Bayley was the first Ironwoman match. In a Showcase centred around the Women's Evolution, and specifically the Four Horsewomen, the two matches I mentioned really should have been a no-brainer to include. Yet somehow they clearly didn't do their research and missed them out. Dammit 2K, you couldn't even do this right!

Ugh as someone who cannot stand Charlotte Flair that Showcase sounds freaking brutal to me!

Glad we are getting the Backlash 2016 arena (technically we never had that arena as 2K18 had Backlash 2017 due to them having the PPV twice in under a year) and Elimination Chamber 2017 so SD can have a "Blue" themed EC event for Universe Mode. Hopefully we can do EC matches in both EC Arenas. I also noticed that for some reason, WM 32 has the LED Ring Posts even know those didn't debut yet at that point, and if Sasha vs Charlotte from RAW 2017 is the match where Sasha won the RAW Women's title for the 1st time, we should be getting the RAW arena that was only used a few times that looked like this sketch-up:

Am I correct to assume this is all of the news that we get for the week? I really hope another developer takes over the WWE video games soon. Aside from getting essentially the exact same product every year I'm really tired of the news trickle. We really should know everything by now. We should have the entire roster, all new modes and new features (if any). Based on where we are, unless we get hit by a massive bombshell in less than a month I'm guessing that there are no other new modes or features aside from originals, and that universe will remain as boring and one dimentional as ever. That leaves the roster, which historically they've at least left crumbs for us to figure out for ourselves (they've barely done that this year with the commercial, but everyone besides Hogan was pretty much a layup). This franchise isn't nearly good enough to warrant this level of secrecy. If Hogan wasn't in this game it would be a fast and easy pass.
Apologies for the curmudgeonry, please understand that I've kept my expectations very low this year, but the developers have managed to fall far below even those. Now I really just want something completely different from someone completely different.

Always considered Paige vs. Emma as 'the' women's match that got the ball rolling on what would be the Women's Evolution. Obvs wouldn't be on there even if Emma was with the company (a shame.)
I can never get in to Showcases, DBry is one of my favourite wrestlers and I still haven't completed his one. They just get very stale to me after 3-4 matches

Still no news on the legends roster and universe mode huh? No full on Roster Reveal info yet, and Universe Mode info is usually pretty late in the promotional cycle.

I honestly could see the legends roster get smaller if they include the NXT UK guys

As for the Showcase matches, half the matches I would like to play. The other half, eh. I'll agree its questionable how Sasha vs Bayley at NXT Takeover Respect is not on the showcase. Hopefully next year we get a legends showcase. However unless theyre willing to get use a crap load of matches like they did with Austin, i see them sticking with modern wrestlers for Showcase

It's more than questionable that the Ironman match isn't on there. Sasha vs. Becky from Takeover should be on there too.

I just hope they put entrances into the Showcase mode. Having it jump from the BTS video of them talking right into the bell ringing kills me. I hope they at least have the option to turn it on or off.
I, for one, love seeing the entrances in the game. I have no idea why they would just completely cut them out of this mode.
