Disappointing News on Divas in WWE 2K16

[BDKiiing]

I hate people saying "at least Eva Marie is in". She was always going to be in, with the way Total Divas is pushed, she definitely was a lock.

Sasha and Charlotte AREN'T going to be in the game...a dev confirmed it in that 2K thread.

I posted the image from 2K about Sasha being scanned and how that means jack****. And on Charlotte's shirt. 1. it was from an earlier build and 2. that 2K wanted at least Charlotte and Sasha in the game but for some reason couldn't do it.

That's really surprising. I thought they would have been DLC since they weren't going to be on the roster that shipped. Wonder why 2k didn't put them in the game?

A terrible announcement. As a fan who discovered and began loving pro wrestling during the Attitude Era and Monday Night War, this game is far too focused on Stone Cold and that time when it should've been fully focused on the NXT Brand. Nothing has brought more attention to pro wrestling in ten years than NXT and it's basically being promoted as "just another brand" in this game and that'll be this game's downfall unfortunately. I'll also be one of the fans who will cancel my preorder (Because The Terminator...really?) and grab this around Black Friday for cheaper.

I also would like to commend 2K for coming out and being honest
about it instead of remaining silent and trying to get more sales.

I personally don't watch womens wrestling or use the divas at all
but you can really see that demographic growing and I feel bad for
the fans that do.

Reading between the lines you can tell it was definitely a WWE call
and I have a feeling it's the same reasoning as to why Los Matadors
isn't in.

Wild guess but I wonder if it has something to do with their contracts.
Maybe there is a clause in their contracts that if they are in a video game
right now they will get a bonus and WWE is trying to nix that.

Oh ok was not aware of that, i think the roster is pretty damn good next year the on disc roster needs to be tied to just the active roster and tie legends to DLC

Such a disappointment. Absolutely ridiculous on not having them in the game.

Here's to hoping 2K and VC didn't remove their moves from the game, and that the create a diva feature allows us to replicate the missing wrestlers.

Why are throwaway characters from DLC last year on the roster over Important Superstars, WWE?

Because VINCE and the big wigs at WWE don't think they are important.
