(Video) Special Ref Details, JR & King In Exhibition, Bret Hart &#

[Smacktalks]

Update: I've had word back that JR and King appearing on commentary outside of Attitude mode was a mistake, sadly JR and King are only available in Attitude Era Mode.

Following on from the news on Create an Arena, there's some additional information that has also been revealed.

First off, as I previously reported, there was a WWE 13 panel that took place after Axxess that was hosted by JR which you can listen to here. It's worth a listen just for JR's comments alone but there's also Sheamus, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Dolph Ziggler, Brodus Clay, Naomi, Cameron, Mike Tyson and CM Punk on the panel.

Now for the new details and there's some moveset observations to begin with, with konaskorner.com noting:

- Brock does not have the kimura lock

- CM Punk has the Macho Man elbow drop as a signature move

- The Miz’s signatures and finishers are mixed up (the snap DDT is his second finisher)

- Austin has two stunners, the new one with the taunt and the one with the animation of The Rock flying around the ring

- Dude Love doesn't have sweet chin music

- Y2J does not have the moonsault as a signature but he does have the Liontamer as a finisher

Another observation that was pointed out was that the Yes chants are included for Daniel Bryan's entrance but not while he is performing his signature move.

New details on the Special Referee mode were also revealed, noting that you'll have a meter on the screen that tracks your performance, so if you don't do a good job and you continuously beat on someone, you'll get a cutscene that involves John Laurinaitis ejecting you and replacing you with the standard ref who will be controlled by the AI.

The Attitude Mode storylines have also had new details emerge, with the news that Bret Hart is also included in the mode. Whether Bret will be part of the DX story with Shawn Michaels, or he'll have his own story as one of the DLC story's I reported on yesterday we're gonna have to wait and see.

As for Stone Cold, in the version shown at the press event you could play in some of the matches in Attitude mode, with Austin vs. Dude Love and Austin vs. Road Dogg. In regards to the later, you have the option to play the match and win to progress, with the historical objectives of winning in under 2 minutes and stunnering Vince when he comes down to ringside.

If you complete all your objectives you'll unlock bonus items, but if you win the match your own way you'll progress straight to the cutscene of DX attacking Stone Cold and tying him up in the ropes.
