When it announced a special campaign mode this week, WWE 2K14 hinted the game’s roster would be the largest ever by virtue of the fact more than 45 classic bouts would be featured in “30 Years of Wrestlemania.” The question was how many wrestlers would be making repeat appearances to fill out that card.
10 wrestlers have dual appearances (the same star in a different skin or persona) out of a list of 43, meaning there are 33 different guys in all. This is just for 30 Years of Wrestlemania. If it’s any guide, last year’s current-era roster of WWE ’13 featured 50 performers, plus 35 in the Attitude Era mode.
The complete list of performers is below. Of note: The roster that leaked yesterday didn’t have Big John Studd on it. Also, Ultimate Warrior is listed; he also is a pre-order premium for the game. So the good news is he can be played for free but it probably means you have to unlock him, and the rest of these superstars before using them in the game.

Awesome. Can’t wait to put a Rey Mysterio moveset on Yokozuna
I kinda wish that the retro characters were just alternate attires, I know that their movesets have changed over time, but do we really need 2 Lesnars, Cenas (seriously he has changed from Jorts to cargo shorts) or Big Shows.
Also why bother with Hollywood Hogan when there is no NWO Scott Hall or NWO Nash
Because it was Hollywood Hogan against the Rock at Wrestlemania X-18
They have to make money off the DLC attires somehow. They know everyone would buy the rest of the NWO
King Kong Bundy! I haven’t thought about that freak in a long time. Good stuff.
No DDP?
Did DDP ever have a wrestlemania match of note?
Then again…wtf is Goldberg there? For his stinker of a match against Brock?
No Kurt Angle means no Angle vs Brock and no Angle vs HBK 🙁
I still remember watching the Brock vs Goldberg on PPV as a kid. I also remember the crowd chanting “BORING”…so much for an absolute slobberknocker.
That’s what happens when it gets leaked that Lesnar is leaving and everyone knew it was Goldberg’s final match. So the crowd shat on the match because it basically was a waste of time for everyone involved.
No Angle? No Eddie? What even..
You can’t use TNA as an excuse, since Hogan is there aswell.
