Tornado_X Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) OK so imagine that there would be a showcase that would be specifically focused on the birth of NXT to its current stage. It would consist of the matches actual arena, attires, special objectives, custom commentary etc.. It will also have "chapters" like in the WWE'13 Attitude Era Mode, with a chapter consisting of 4-5 matches that covers a superstar or feud. For realism sake, I decided to go up to TakeOver Orlando, because the cut off date for anything will probably be before the next TakeOver, and no new chapters could be created after Orlando. Total Match Count: 45 Total Unlockable Characters: 34 Total Unlockable Arenas: 19 Total Unlockable Titles: 6 - Seth Rollins: 1/4 - Aug/29/2012 NXT '12 NXT Championship Seth Rollins def.

the King Lives Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 good god no. i'm glad you're back but i don't really like nxt that much to be forced to play that Quote
C-Squared Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 If we can get all of that NXT talent and Arenas, I'm game for it! Just please let the Iconic Duo be in the game as Billie was scanned most likely around Mania 32 suggests! I'm big on them right now XD Quote

A talent NXT or 205 Live can only be considered eligible for game form if they have a merchandising contract in addition to a standard performance contract. This is the reason #DIY and Bobby Roode both were absent from 2k17 and why Aries and the club ended up as dlc. Quote
Tornado_X Posted May 2, 2017 Author Posted May 2, 2017 NXT may not be as popular as it once was, but reliving the birth and prime of NXT would be awesome, like imagine the cutscenes for all the matches! I think that 2K18 would be great to include this showcase because by next year there would have to be much more matches added. Oh, and if we don't get the Iconic Duo, I'm positive we will have Sanity and Ember in. 2 Quote

They may not be as big as they used to but they still have great talent keeping eyes on them. I would think that the Duo has to be in at least this year since if not for Billie being scanned long ago, at least the reason be they are popular and the top heels of the division.

Granted I was one of them. But of course even if they take a while, WWE could if they wanted to approve of them to be in the game. Quote
Tornado_X Posted May 3, 2017 Author Posted May 3, 2017 They are quite popular, and I would be very surprised if they aren't included. But If they aren't I would think they'd be included as part of Future Stars Quote

Oh, and if we don't get the Iconic Duo, I'm positive we will have Sanity and Ember in. it's not about popularity it's about merchandising rights. and i'm not talking about t-shirts and apparel on shopzone. when i say merchandising contracts i mean the contracts that allows them to be in game form, dvds, action figures and the like. The T-shirts falls under the standard performance contract. there's no doubt we get ember in as dlc. as far as Sanity that's a tough one. yes they're popular but sanity debuted in October. there's a slim chance they make it but i think that the NXT cutofs are a bit different than the current wwe roster. and not everyone will make it in. but i'm not 100% against the idea. my thing is with an nxt showcase. people what get mad cause Ho Ho Lun didn't make the game? atleast with a legend or retro showcase we get people that actually have mattered. Not saying no one in nxt doesn't matter. i use them quite alot but i just don't think it warrants a showcase. if anything for current i would do a nice long 3 part story kinda like WWE12's RTWM was but not as stupid as it was. so you kinda have the future and the present showcased. and maybe with a bunch of branching endings. i think 6 would be suffficient enough. then add a retro showcase (not attitude era cause i'm even sick of that dead horse being beaten to death) maybe an 03 or 04 showcase or something so we can get a good decent roster selection of people of the past as well.so we'd be able to get 04 taker, 03 taker, shelton benjamin, haas, kurt angle, edge, christian in their primes, retro brock, retro cena, retro orton, wrestling god JBL, APA Faarooq/Bradshaw.. you get the picture. my point is it just needs to be something for everyone not just appealing to one demographic. you know i play al eras. wcw, wwf, wwe tna, nxt. i play them all no matter who good, bad, or okay they may be. but i just feel there needs to be a balance. I couldn't elaborate when i typed that post a few days ago cause i've been dealing with family problems and i was up in the air in a jet on the way home.

WIthout the shirts you have no promotion. without promotion you're just a nobody. so i can say without a shadow of a doubt right now that for nxt (in game or dlc) this is what iassume. On-Disc Authors of Pain (Paul Ellering as manager) Elias Samson Mandy Rose Liv Morgan Macey Estrella No Way Jose Bobby Roode #DIY Andrade Cien Almas Peyton Royce TM-61 DLC Sanity (all 4) Ember Moon i'm somewhat out of the loop as far as the current nxt roster so i'm going based off of Sanity's debut i'm sure there might be 2 other people to be DLC but i'm unsure. are liv morgan, macey, and peyton still on tv? that's what made me add them in cause you gotta have more women for asuka to wrestle.

Ahhh ok that makes more sense. And to answer your question yes Liv, Macey, Peyton and Billie are on TV but I think Macey recently debuted so she has no chance but Billie and Peyton and Liv are the main players that are on WWE TV every week and the Iconic duo as they call themselves are the top heels of the women's division and Liv is kinda one of the top faces even though personally IDK how lol. The Iconic duo do have a shirt they have been wearing on TV for like a couple months now but WWE has yet to approve the shop to release them. So they kinda are somebodies if that is what you mean. So on the term of the duo, you think they have a shot this year? IDK if the duo has said deals as they don't have figures but I am sure they will overtime. Edited May 4, 2017 by Dr.C-Squared Quote

So on the term of the duo, you think they have a shot this year? IDK if the duo has said deals as they don't have figures but I am sure they will overtime. okay yeah the last thing i saw was around october (the Dusty classic, Peyton and Billie mocking that other girl i forget her name since i've only seen her once. Yeah like i said the way the rule went last year atleast when HHH took over the marketing for the video games was that they have to have a merchandising contract that deals with physical content. games, action figures, those pop up toys or what not and dvd releases. This was why Owen almost made it into 2k16 last year for the showcase cause wwe almost got away with that DVD without Martha knowing about it. once she found out owen was potentially being considered for 2k16 she threw a tantrum and he was removed. it was the same as how daniel got fired right before he was supposed to be in SVR11 as part of the NXT DLC and they removed him at the last moment but his moves were in the game. so yeah that's why DIY and Bobby roode didn't make it last year. that's why i was kinda shocked that the 4HW didn't make it in 2k16 but then i realized it must have been just vince being vince and saying no cause he could care less about women's wrestling. but yeah i'm optimistic for the nxt roster this year. i mean everyone aside from Hideo, Asuka, Blake and Murphy are on the main roster now so it would definitely be plausible for them to add more nxt talent or it'd just be pointless lol. so yeah i didn't want it to come off that i was some person that just thinks there shouldn't be any nxt content. i mean i welcome the idea of an nxt showcase as long as there are others as well. Like if they did what they did with the 2k15 dlc and in game showcases and they have a multiple amount of stories to tell i think that'd be great. i just remembered the other girl i was thinking of was Danielle..

June is the contract cutoff for DLC planning. and you can forget about michael mcgullicutty. that's one person taht wwe refuses to acknowledge. he doesn't even get mentioned as that name when you play as curtis axel in the games. Lawler said "he was a name i refuse to repeat" so yeah i don't think that would happen or the timeline would go back that far. Quote
