What Culture recently attended THQ’s summer showcase and we were able to get some hands on grapple time with their upcoming WWE 13. And let me tell you now, it’s pretty darn good. You can check out our hands on review by clicking here.
WWE 12 was a resounding home run for THQ, and to capitalise on the success and renewed interest in the franchise (pre-orders for WWE 13 are over 170% higher than last year’s release) Yuke’s have pulled out all the stops in order to bring us what may just be their greatest title yet.
This is arguably due to WWE 13′s new feature being set in the Attitude era, but we can’t forget that we’ve been told to expect a healthy representation of the current era too – meaning that WWE 13 will have the largest roster of playable superstars in the history of the game.
The size of this roster can be gleaned from the amount of slots available on the THQ website. There are 84 slots in total, meaning that there’ll be plenty to do when we finally get to hit the squared circle, 20 feet by 20 feet, come October.
There have only been a relative handful of these 84 slots given over to confirmed superstars, meaning many names are still to be announced. We decided to compile our 84 most likely predictions for who we’ll see when it comes time to layeth the smacketh down in full current-gen glory.

I am worryingly psyched for Shane Mcmahon, Coast to Coast kicks were amazing back in attitude era. Hoping this list is at launch and unlike WWE 12 where lots were through DLC.
Nothing worrying about it dude, Shane O’ Mac kicked ass!
Please take Damien Sandow out of the list
why? damien sandow is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
damien is funny and cool
No Bret Hart? If HBK is cconsidered and attitude era main eventer so is Bret. Shawn Michaels retired shortl after the screwjob which basically began the attitude era. Bret Hart is actually better than everybody on that list
Better than: HBK, Chris Jericho, Undertaker and Triple H? and what about The Rock and Stone Cold….
Hope WWE ’13 is more complete than the last. There seemed to be way to much DLC. Alot of people were upset. Especially those who preordered to receive the Rock and other content. Though, the packaging and promotion said included in game, it was all DLC. Lame.
Why more diva for what .that is for girl stuff or what Cory l.are think we are gay boy we have to play with diva that is for girl why not made other game for girl and rare boy like to play with doll too why more diva for what .made too much space for other character
i wouldn’t have cactus jack as a mid carder
Who cares where Goldberg is A) he wasn’t an attitude era wrestler since he worked for WCW and B) Goldberg sucks has always sucked, he was never a good wrestler he was pushed in WCW because they liked his size and the idea, when he went to WWE in 2003 he threw a temper tantrum because he wasn’t treated like he was down south because they realized he wasn’t anything special. The less Goldberg in anything the better
Except you know the fact that Goldberg was practically unstopable in WCW and WWF. As well as he beat Hogan,The Rock, Batista, Randy Orten, Rick Flair, HHH, HBK, Kevin Nash,Brock Lesner,(ect.) the point is he was a dominate force and no one could stop him! That’s why it’s sad that he’s never been in any of the WWE games when he’s beatten every single legend from the attitude era.
Do you seriously not have AJ listed as an expected diva? Besides the fact that she has been in main even storylines for most of this year, she also won the THQ superstar challenge at summer slam last year.
Where is Khali Damit…They Should Put Khali Also
you’re factually challenged as the roster page only has 78 spots
Why is john cena’s tea shirt red not green
Can you please put the Bella Twins on the main roster (not DLC). They need to be in this game at least one more time. You should do two or three outfits for the Bellas, so that they can do the twin switch. Put Michelle McCool in the main roster. When she left the wwe she was wearing a gold outfit. She was wearing red in W’12. Thats why you need to put Michelle in the game. I think you should put AJ in the game since she is the only diva right now that is getting all of the spotlight. Make a DLC pack for all the current and past Divas.
what about stacy keibler???
Please please please add the Hardy Boyz and the Dudleys…without them there was no Attitude Era
If AJ Lee, Tensai, and Hornswoggle (at least as a mascot) are not on there, Im gonna riot. Like LA 1990s Rodney King style. They should have Khali and Tyson Kidd too.
