I think they'll two different single player modes. I could see them doing the "Hall Of Fame" mode like they did this year, with the stat building parts.

I just read on another forum that this isn't the "season mode". Not sure what he meant exactly but he told me to read this artical from IGN.
"IGN: What does that mean for the single-player career or storyline? Is there a single-player component to that, or is there something different?
Ledesma: Absolutely, there will be multiple stories. There are multiple Superstars you can take through on their path to Wrestlemania, and so we're offering one tag team story, but we're also offering a lot of single-player stories as well, so you build up experience [for] different Superstars, and this year, each story is tailored around that Superstar and a much more specific storyline around that Superstar. So [there] won't be a lot of generic stories where you see Undertaker's not really doing something that you would see him doing on programming or is kind of generic that old roles can fit that. It's more that this is the Undertaker in the WWE and you get to live that life and you get to experience his path to Wrestlemania.
IGN: Well, I know as awesome as that is, getting specific sometimes can -- it makes a lot of work for you guys, and it can kind of limit it in a sense. Is there only a set number of people who can go through a storyline or can I still bring in my created wrestler?
Ledesma: For this Road to Wrestlemania mode, there is a set number of Superstars that we'll have in the mode. However, another mode that we're not discussing yet will be able to support a bunch more options for the players that like to have the free rein, the multiple decisions to use created elements in that mode, but we'll discuss it at a later point. Road to Wrestlemania mode: we just wanted to deliver a mode that offered very high quality stories, and some people might look at it like it's limiting us, but on the contrary, it's actually giving us more freedom. It's allowing us to develop much better stories because we're focused around one character. Those much better stories give us the opportunities to branch the stories a lot more, and also it gives us ability to go ahead and try some new things now as far as decision making, as far as multiple endings. It's giving us a lot more options of what we can do in the stories, so I actually think we're going to deliver the highest quality stories we've ever delivered in this mode. Sure you might not be able to play with, you know, some of the lower talent of the WWE roster, but you'll be able to play with a lot of the top talent. You'll experience triple-A quality stories, and not only that but gameplay within those stories because we're doing a lot of storytelling through gameplay as well"

Probably the real season mode, or a single player mode that fills the void that RTWM mode leaves tbh.

Wow, just checked all this out...and I'm really impressed. CAF should be awesome! It's a feature I've wanted for a long time. Can't wait to make some of my made up moves I have. And Jericho looks great..can't wait to use him. I hope they put they Codebreaker in.
The Hot Tag feature also sounds like an awesome idea. I really can't believe I'm so hyped for this after just a couple days. I hope it lives up, because Smackdown! vs Raw 2008 did not.

Since we'll be able to use every or more wrestlers in that mode, I'm guessing it'll be something along the lines of the Wii's Main Event Mode or maybe even a HCTP-like Season Mode.

The HD Arena looks awesome. They better not just have the show's logo going by everywhere on the final version, though. The entrance taunts are cool, but really awkward looking. I like the loading screen graphic, though. The loading time after Hardy's entrance seemed awkward, too. The whole winning thing looked pretty choppy, and as redundant as it may sound, it looked really awkward. It looks like it'll be the same way as last year, with me not getting the Wii version. I know this is just an early build of the game, but I doubt it'll get much better.

The slow mo on the finishers looks fantastic.
On a semi-related note, the more I hear Jeff Hardy's new theme; the more I like it

Same here. The first time I heard it I hated it, but it's really grown on me now. And no one really knows what's going on with Season Mode as of now. This is the first news we've gotten about the game. You people really need to stop making such quick assumptions and just wait and find out.

Looking pretty good so far, but I'm still not getting my hopes up like I did for 2008. I just hope we get a lot of slots for Create-A-Finisher. All the new features added to Tag Team are just perfect though.
