For those wondering why the game video looked so terrible, the developer is using the same model from WWE Legends of Wrestlemania, which came out in 2009 and a more cartoon-ish game.
Seems an odd way to promo a new game.

Not sure if it matters, but the majority of the game was made by THQ just before they went belly up. I guess, to save money, they used sprites from older games.
It doesnt, and none of the games were by THQ - they only published it - WWE13, and WWE2K14 are developed by Yukes (14 has a secondary developer as well, visual concepts, the team responsible for the NBA 2K series)

I'm hardly a Triple H fan, but Hunter will be close to the top of the "people Warrior gets to job to" list when/if I get the game. Warrior no-selling the Pedigree at WrestleMania was pretty cold.
My internet isn't reliable enough for podcasts I don't think... do we know the story here? It's hard to believe that in 2013 alone WWE has brought both the Ultimate Warrior and Bruno Sammartino back into the fold.

There was a football game to watch tonight, so I was a bit slow getting to this. Maybe not as much detail as usual, as a result. I apologise for that, but still, this is Smackdown!
