I mean, the DLC has Blake and Murphy. Those guys aren't even that popular with NXT fans.
As the women were in NXT at the time of roster lock, the only fair thing to do is compare their NXT prominence to others from NXT that made it in. I'd argue they've been more important in NXT than the Vaudevillains, Blake and Murphy, Baron Corbin, or even Hideo Itami. I'm glad to have those guys, but the women were more important than they were during development.

But it is what it is at this point. Hopefully as much of their stuff is available as options for creations to help make that easier.

Blake and Murphy were tag champs at the time of WM, I was personally surprised they weren't announced as being in game when it shipped.

But I agree that the 4HW are more important than a lot of the men. Itami maybe not but I agree with the others you listed.

You guys keep talking about these other NXT people but fail to acknowledge the fact that they're guys. We hear fans of these games bitch about the women wrestlers taking up roster spots every year and I guarantee you 2K has the usage data to back up all the guys that brag about how they never use the divas in the game every year and that's even when we were getting Trish, Lita and AJ in game consistently and the three of them are on a whole other level of popularity than these 4.

This. As horrible as it is to say. If you looked at usage data I'd wager less than 25% actually use the Divas.

But I do believe it has already been established that it was 2K's decision.

They are males. There isn't one NXT diva in the game. ****, I don't even think that there is one new current diva in the game. 2k wanted an NXT presence in the game but they focused on the males because most people play with the male wrestlers.

There is a big difference between Scanning and creating an entire character with an accurate moveset and entrance.

As aholebert said,it's takes awhile to create these wrestlers. I think I saw somewhere that it's like 2 months.

Eva Marie and Emma are still NXT divas

Emma was on the main roster when it was finalized. I dont think she was sent back down until after WM.

As for Eva Marie, she wasn't even really wrestling when things were finailzed. Only reason she is in the game is because of Total Divas.
