There isn't any official release date yet. I hope the mod will some day have all of the wwe2k14 superstar and comprehensive attire from different era and all of the WM1-31 Arena. One last thing is mod an authentic version ronda rousey in as well and patch it to enable male vs female just like in the past version of SVR series.

Why are you guys so excited about 2K15?! Every version so far was crappy, a lot of graphical glitches, bugs, etc. A mediocre game. And unfortunately it's about the only one with the WWE stars, so there's no other choice out there. Wait, I think I just answered my question

Well, for LOC and myself, it's saying on Steam that it's releasing on April 28th; "This game will unlock in approximately 5 days and 18 hours"

Yep, you explained it at the end there. It's the first WWE game on the PC in over 12 years; that alone is worth getting excited. Yes, I have heard it's utter sh**e, but it's better than nothing at all, and I'm confident that modders will be able to fix it and prove once again why it pays to be part of the glorious PC gaming master race.

It's really a shame that there never was a GOOD WWE game out there. I guess their budget doesn't really include PC and consoles games as much, but it's a bad business decision if you ask me. If they would provide a good, fun wrestling experience I'm pretty sure that they would draw many people to their TVs to watch the real thing. But I guess this is also Vince's decision, the guy is too old to believe in video games...

WWF No Mercy was great.

Why are people soo surprised about the PC release? I swear there was a video of John Cena confirming it as far back as last October. Pretty sure I saw someone mention it in this very thread.

 That was probably me, because around that time last year rumors were floating about online about a PC version. But 2K denied it left and right, as did WWE and anyone else involved. And we are so surprised (regardless of rumors from 6 months ago or not) about a PC release, because they've never done one before. It's a....surprise?

A few weeks ago, they explained it didn't come to PC due to inadequate amount of time but have some sort of plan to release the next version along the console. Since then, i thought they abandoned for releasing it WWE2K 15 and out of the blue....

Just got off the phone with Brian Cage. He said that Season 2 was actually supposed to start taping next month, but it got postponed to late summer/early fall.

I'm not sure if this has been released publicly yet, but I know a few of you guys were unsure if it had been renewed yet.

I should post more stuff from other Lucha Underground talent in the coming days and weeks as we get closer to releasing the next issue of Tag Rope Magazine.

Edit: I've been informed from Lucha Underground that it hasn't been confirmed just yet, but they're having conversations, so take that for what it is. From the conversations I've had with the talent it seems like they're fairly confident and it's just a matter of time until it's officially announced. Cage, as well as myself, might've jumped the gun a bit. But it definitely sounds like LU won't be done anytime soon.

I just re-watched this year's WM. This really was the best WM I've seen in a looong time. It really makes you wonder who had the most input on the matches, Vince or HHH. Also, it was the first time that another match eclipsed Taker's match (he was always the main thing to watch at WM), and I'm talking about Sting vs. HHH. Not only that the match was surprisingly good, given Sting's age, but to see DX and nWo there, in the same ring, it was absolutely incredible, even if the outcome was not the one I wished for. Cole was spot-on, I had goose bumps. It's moments like these when you remember that all people get old at one point, no matter how much you would want them to live forever. I could spend 2 lifetimes watching nWo or DX and I wouldn't get tired, but unfortunately we all have an expiration date. 

The only thing that I regret is the place of WM and the fact that it was in day time. A closed space would've been much better, for acoustics and pyros. But it was a great WM, I really couldn't ask for more. Too bad it's only once a year...

Agreed.  I downloaded it to watch on a long flight.  I went into it with the attitude of "Look, I'm just watching this because I need reference for storylines picked up in Raw - I expect this to be a terrible Wrestlemania".

 

Best in years!

WWF No Mercy was great.

Never had an N64, so I never got to play that one (did get in the compulsory play of GoldenEye 007 though at a friend's house).

Seth rolins is probably going back to mid card within 2 years or shorter. The finishing move just isn't that fascinating or too plain. Deam ambrose really is the one that can bring something fresh but attire is unprofessional.
