This year's cover star - somewhat unexpectedly - is Seth Rollins, who is said to embody the game's Be Like No One mantra.

As established in the launch trailer, which featured Rollins breaking into the WWE vault and vandalising historical artefacts from past legends, it would appear that the superstar will front a story dedicated to his own "Redesign, Rebuild, Reclaim" logo.

According to the official press release, the words describe Rollins' "unmatched work ethic, disruptive mindset and definitive WWE career" and how he has "done things on his own terms. Like many claim but never accomplish, he was destined to be different, blaze his own trail and take no prisoners along the way, even if it meant disrespecting history."

Presumably, the game's main story will focus on Rollins' rise to the main-event picture with the culmination with his defeat of Triple H at WrestleMania 33 forming the climax.

The decision to feature him on the cover hasn't gone down well with other out-spoken current roster members:
