1. Ryback
“Feed him more!”, Goldb…sorry, Ryback (formerly Skip Sheffield) is one of the most popular superstars to emerge in the WWE in the last year. About to feud with The Miz and potentially get that all-important mid-card push, we can see Ryback’s career sky-rocketing in 2013. I’m not sure if he needs personality, or anything to allow for that to happen? His recent wordless confrontation with WWE Champion CM Punk after an attack on Mick Foley suggests not.
He has emerged as DLC for December, but again it’s a shame that Ryback wasn’t immediately included on the roster for WWE 13, and that fans can’t play as him from release. Doubtless, fans would’ve had fun imagining how Ryback’s career will develop via the game, and dropping superstars like The Big Show, Chris Jericho and John Cena with his frankly awesome Shell Shocked finisher. Boom!
What do you think WWE fans? Who else should have been included in WWE 13? Share your thoughts below.

Seem like an interesting read but about half of your list is in the game at least as DLC or unlockable.
Val Venis
Goldust
Terry Funk as Chainsaw Charlie
Ryback
Val Venis is included, as part of the Content Group #1 Attitude Era Superstars Pack, which is released at the same time as WWE ’13 on October 30th.
Ryback will also be included in the game, as part of the Content Group #2 WWE Superstars Pack, which will be available to download in December 2012.
Goldust is also included in the game, he comes with the Fan Axxess Program Exclusive downloadable content.
With that being noted, I am really disappointed with the omission of Steve Blackman! He was one of my favorite players during the attitude era.
I, too, would have liked Chyna to be in WWE ’13. However with her career choice, in the adult movie business, I doubt WWE would allow her anywhere near the franchise any time soon.
The Holly Cousins! Mean Street Posse. Perry Saturn. Al Snow. Lance Strom The Godfather/with hoes.
There’s too many names to say.
It’s a pity TNA has most of the Attitude Era stars.

Ryan, The Godfather is in the game and he will be accompanied to the ring with his hoes in his entrance video. He isn’t Download Content either. He will most probably be an unlockable character in the games Attitude Era Mode.
Ryback, Goldust, Terry Funk (as Chainsaw Charlie) and Val Venis are DLC for WWE ’13 so means that they weren’t snubbed and thus DQs them from this list.
Which would put the list at:
1. Tyson Kidd
2. Chyna
3. Luna Vachon
4. Taka Michinoku
5. Steve Blackman
6. Headbangers
and leaves 4 open spots.

chyna is doing porn thats why she is not included in the game!
The attitude era diva are lacking big time. We only have three, it’s pathetic. Who cares if Chyna is in porn, whats the big deal? Everyone watches porn if they will admit it or not. Not including her in the game over that is a load of crap. So many female superstars should have been in the game; ivory, molly holly, sable, luna, jacqueline, debra, terri, the kat, etc.
The game had so many incomplete tag teams, we needed superstars like; al snow, test, perry sound, etc
The Hurricane and Rosie!
Kurt Angle?

THE ODDITIES NEED TO BE IN A GAME :(
the others that should be in are :
oddities
apart from that the game seems very compact ……. i would love for them to do this next year and base it on the hogan era eg. 1987 – 1992/3
RVD! And the HARDY BOYZ
Tyson Kidd definetly needed to be in the game, but oh well, I’ll just have to create him :|
In the game is Cactus Jack, Mankind and Dude Love, but where is Mick Foley? And Alex Riley should of been in there. And Paul Bearer as a manager again? Really? Please bring back Hornswoggle. Ricky Steamboat made Smackdown vs Raw 2011 WWE All Stars and WWE 12, why isn’t he in WWE 13?
I think they need to have included the following, even if it’s just music or movesets or entrances or something similar:
+At least one alternative outfit for each available character, like the ‘WWF Attitude’ game had 4 per character#, albeit ‘Mankind’ had Dude Love/Cactus Jack, but that could be covered as two outfits.

#Characters like Road Dogg will have DX and NAO outfits, gives them different scenarios. Some characters may have ECW or NWO variants, those would also suit.
++Weapon’d intro, so like Cactus Jack with his baseball bat, even if you don’t use it.
++Weapon’d intro, so like Jeff Jarratt with his guitar/guitar case, even if you don’t use it.
