I assumed that the Stone Cold thing would be like the Path of the Warrior DLC for 2K15 on steroids -- a "greatest hits" retelling of his career, focusing on most of the big matches. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Stunning Steve Austin with his long hair at the start.

Ok so if they use the entire current roster that people are wanting, then that leaves 17 spots for Legends. I can deal with that.

Hopefully this means we get another retro DX Shawn Michaels on the roster. WrestleMania 14 Shawn Michaels vs Stone Cold!

I think the showcase should be, like someone else said, like the Path of the Warrior), with SCSA's whole career being played through. Would be awesome. Things like adding special referee matches for the Lesnar/Goldberg match would be great additions to the game.

I would love to see WWE games each year, one with the current stars and one that is exclusively to a different era (80's-90's, attitude era etc).

If we get this Stone Cold mode, that I think J.R. leaked weeks ago.. I hope it goes back to his early days, too.. His release from WCW.. to ECW.. etc, etc.

I wouldn't add the Lesnar/Goldberg match because this thing MUST end with Wrestlemania XIX. It's such an emotional high point (last match for Austin, end of the Austin/Rock trilogy, etc.) that it would be the logical point to roll the ending footage.
