9. The Hardy Boyz
With the inclusion of two versions of Lita in the WWE ’13 roster, it is tragic that her former team mates The Hardy Boyz have been left out of the roster. Then again, Jeff Hardy’s current contract with TNA meant he could not be included in the game and despite Matt Hardy being non-contracted in the wrestling business, the WWE and THQ decided not to approach him with an offer to be in the game without his brother.
Matt Hardy enjoyed numerous stints in the WWE – perhaps most famously with his brother Jeff during the Attitude Era, before a less successful attempt a singles career with the franchise up until 2005 when he was released. He has spent time with Ring of Honour and TNA in between returns to the WWE, before announcing his semi-retirement last year. It is not beyond the realms of possibility that he could be a late addition DLC.
Jeff Hardy is obviously less likely an inclusion as DLC as he would need to leave TNA first and even then due to his on-off relationship with Vince McMahon he may be overlooked.
Jeff began his career as a member of the Hardy Boys in the 90′s until they disbanded for the first time in 2002, when both he and Matt embarked on singles careers. Jeff is notorious though for going AWOL numerous times, and has been released on several occasions, spending time with TNA, where he remains today.
Famed for their Twist of Fate and Swanton Bomb finishers, we’d love to see them included in DLC content one day.

I agree the roster isn’t great missing too many people who made the attitude era a success, hope thq do not make anymore wwe games, too many duplicates wth.
I know it won’t ever be possible but it just never will never be right without Owen Hart in the game. But since you were mentioning tag-teams what about the Headbangers,
The Mean Street Posse? Yes! Yes! Yes!
No Lo Down or X-Factor though? I kid..
I really wanted to include Lo Down but couldn’t make room for them. They were an awesome tag team though!
it sucks that THQ as well as WWE have all these screw-ups going with former WWE Superstars and Divas. For instance: Divas who made the Attitude Era what it was were Divas like: Jacqueline, Ivory, Debra, The Kat, Terri Runnels, Tori, Sable, Linda McMahon (being as all of these Divas were included in WWF No Mercy including Linda McMahon) as well as other former WWE Superstars like: D-Lo Brown, Viscera, Mideon, Jeff Jarret, Thrasher, Mosh, Essa Rios (wrestled in 1999 on “WWF Metal”), Tazz (wrestled in 2000-2001), The Blue Meanie, and Meat (who was in WWF WrestleMania 2000). Would be nice to see all the above mentioned tag teams as well as the superstars and divas I just named. THAT would be the ultimate game. As a side note to that, THQ and the WWE should REALLY consider making an entire game just for the Attitude Era since there was a game created just for the legends of the WrestleMania era.
They have some of the Nation of Domination, but not DLo Brown (who works as an agent for TNA I believe). They have Billy Gunn, but not Chuck Palumbo (Billy & Chuck).
William Regal & Tajiri and Regal & Lance Storm were Tag champs. La Resistance is also missing.
