With Terminator's two versions available for pre-order, this opes up possibilities (even though this was done because of that Hulk Hogan incident). For example, we could have other movie characters show up in this game as dlc, or maybe we may see them in future versions.

We know that celebrities have ben in wrestling games before (i.e. Mike Tyson in WWE '13)

The reason for me dragging this topic up was the fact that I watched a WCW clip online where RoboCop arrived to the ring. Seeing as there is WCW content here, perhaps RoboCop DLC may be possible. If not, someone'll create a RoboCop CAW. Still, I'm left with a feeling that we might see more movie/tv character appearances in future titles.

No, for the simple fact of rights issues. Terminator is owned by an investment group, their goal from the start was to license the character to make money. Most other movie and TV rights are held up in studios with exclusive deals, or studios that are hard to deal with. Take The Arrow who would be an obvious choice, held by Warner Bros. with nothing to gain from licensing the character out to a wrestling game. Robocop is owned by MGM, they have no reason to license the character to a wrestling game, it doesn't make sense to them.

The Terminator situation was easy for 2K so they did it. It'll be the exception rather than the rule.
