WWE 2K19: 6 Most Shocking Roster Omissions

Maybe 2K have plans to release a Hall Of Fame DLC pack at some point. In fact, scratch that, because there's every chance they will. There's money to be made off those veterans, after all, and it's presumably why The Dudley Boyz have been left out too; there were rumours beforehand that Bubba-Ray and D-Von would miss out, so that hasn't come as a huge shock.

Jarrett, though, is.

This was the perfect opportunity to put Double J in a WWE-branded video game for the first time since 1999's WrestleMania 2000 on N64. A full 19 years on from calling opponents 'Slap Nuts' before matches in that game, Jarrett hasn't found his way back onto the roster. Given his Hall Of Fame induction pre-WrestleMania 34, that's disappointing.

Making extra cash off Jeff's back would be understandable if he hadn't been gone for so long. As it is, this reeks of a quick money grab rather than giving fans new Legends to play as on-disc.
