That's the idea behind giving him proper ring gear. Try and create a use for him. I'm not going to dismiss using him outright. I'm at least going to use him for a couple of matches to try him out.

Never would have thought that a DC thread would have me wanting to look up the old Power Rangers movie... But yeah, I totally want to look up the Power Rangers movie thanks to this thread. Damn you Red Ooze! I mean Ivan Tornado... Oh ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) it. They look the same.

So, who else is going to give Terminator proper wrestling gear and actually use him?
I'm contemplating it.

I love that we are getting at least 2 WCW arenas thanks to Showcase.
I would love for those sets to be templates in Create an Arena.

All 2K said was that there would be something new on Monday.
All they said tonight was that they were going to reveal what that something new would be.
Not ONCE did 2K say it was going to be something BIG or a new feature or anything like that.
They simply said new, and a gameplay and/or showcase trailer is something new.
The only reason people are complaining about it being an overhyped announcement is because they tried to read too much into it and turned it into an overhyped announcement.
I for one am excited for a new trailer tomorrow. Can't wait to see it.

I'm guessing that tonight all they will do is say "Hey, here's what you will get tomorrow."
I doubt we get much, if any, actual info.

To give an actual answer to the 4 Horsewomen question...
The nickname was actually originated by UFC Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and her 3 best friends and training partners, all 3 of whom are also fighters. All 4 ladies are HUGE wrestling fans, so they began to refer to themselves as the 4 Horsewomen of MMA, often posting pictures of themselves striking the classic 4 fingers pose. They were originally doing it just to make a fun little wrestling reference, but it quickly caught on and soon it was basically being used by everyone to describe Rousey and her friends. That's how the nickname entered pop culture.
Earlier this year, WWE.com published an interview with Charlotte, Bayley, Sahsa, and Becky and in the title referred to them as the "4 Horsewomen of NXT" and included a pic of them striking the pose backstage. That's when fans started using the Horsewomen nickname for the NXT ladies.

I think there are 2 reasons for it:
1) The entire roster (including DLC) was locked long before the Divas Revolution became a thing.
2) I honestly think the only reason there is such a big presence of the male NXT stars is because of MyCareer mode. If we weren't getting that, we may not be getting as many NXT guys. There isn't a MyCareer for divas, so no need for NXT women there.
NXT is still seen as developmental by WWE, so it is not a priority when it comes to things like this, no matter how much we would like it to be.
*EDIT* I'm not saying WWE didn't approve them out of spite or just to be jerks or anything, just that at the time this stuff has to be approved it wasn't a priority.

No real excuses to not have Sasha Banks, Bayley, and Charlotte in the game. They were MAIN parts of NXT while 2k15 was being made. They should have been LOCKS for 2k16. And to completley rule them out as DLC when the last piece of DLC won't be released for 5 more months......very very strange. When they realized they weren't going to make the game, for WHATEVER reason, they should have IMMEDIATELY penciled them in as the LAST piece of DLC to give them the maximum amount of time to finish. If they can't finish 4 Divas in 5 months, they should all find new jobs. Your post implies it was 2K's decision to not have them in. It wasn't. 2K has absolutely no say in the matter. It's obvious that for whatever reason WWE didn't approve their inclusion in the game, and that includes DLC. 2K has to abide by what WWE says, so if they say "na, don't put them in the game..." 2K has to leave them out, regardless of who they've scanned or who has a shirt in the crowd.

I don't get the hate on 2K over this. I really don't.
From that statement, it sounds like it was WWE's call to not have those 4 in the game, NOT 2K. They may have been planning on getting them in (Charlotte's shirt, scanning Sasha) but ultimately WWE made the call, and they have final say.
To me, saying things like "I'm canceling my preorder" or "I'm not buying this game" over 4 characters is really unfair to the people who have busted their asses to give us one of the most incredible rosters on paper ever seen in a wrestling game. It's obvious that the game makers wanted this just as badly as we did, but at the end of the day circumstances beyond their control prevented it from happening. To punish the game publishers and developers over something like that by refusing to support them is absolutely ridiculous.
I'm disappointed the Horsewomen won't be in the game, but I'm still buying it because it does look absolutely incredible, even without them.

I also loved the Championship Titles in 2K15, I can't think of any way they can top that, but at the same time anything less will be a disappointment. I always wondered how they could use the WCW titles, but Mattel can't. I just assumed it was the same reason they could put in Goldberg even though he doesn't have a merch deal. They are able to use those because 2K/THQ made a licensing deal for the rights to use those designs with the original designers. If you look in the copyrights for the game at the start you will see a little blurb about Dave Millican Belts or something like that. Mattel doesn't have a deal with them, hence why they can't produce those belts.

I must admit, I do like the historical modes like Attitude Era and the Showcases, but I wouldn't be opposed to the return of Road to WrestleMania mode. I liked how they usually were storylines not possible in WWE for various reasons.
Another idea I've had that would involve both legends and current guys would be to do RTWM/Showcases that centered on "What If?" senerios like what if Austin didn't have to retire and was clashing with the superstars of the modern era, or what if Daniel Bryan had been born earlier and was competing in companies like WCW and ECW before they went under?

Fans expectations: Someone like Jeff Hardy.
Realistic expectations: Someone like Mandrews or Micah.

I think they might surprise us with a reveal Monday, didn't they say there would be over 120 not counting duplicates? So why would they announce retro versions of Steve Austin undertaker and Stephanie and etc? Because the retro versions are not technically duplicates. They are entirely different characters/gimmicks with completely different traits/movesets/etc... When they said not counting duplicates, they meant things like what we had last year with multiple Sheamus and Orton slots (regular, HOP, '11) that were all pretty much the same with little to no differences. Characters like "Stunning" Steve Austin and ABA Undertaker are entirely unique characters from the regular Stone Cold and Undertaker slots, thus they count toward the 120 total.

I really hope we get an Austin vs. Pillman match from the Blondes breakup.
Because I want this theme in the damn game:

As far as the Divas revolution pack goes, I find it extremely hard to believe that Alexa Bliss would make the game but Sasha, Charlotte, Becky, and Bayley wouldn't. So either we are getting those 4 as DLC or the poster saying Bliss was in the game was in fact fake. Considering that the official WWE 2K Facebook and Twitter pages posted that ad and said it was in fact a fake, I would go with (for now) that Bliss didn't make the game.
