In regard to additions to the game, they noted the MyCareer portion of the game will now take you all the way to the WWE Hall of Fame, there will be Create a Diva, Create a Show, Create an Arena, and Create a Championship features, the WWE Universe: Wrestlers can now be booked to multiple shows, the announcing team will be Michael Cole & Jerry Lawler & JBL, and Ladder, handicap, and tornado tag matches will return to the game and you can now attack opponents during their entrances. Thanks to Glenn Sorlie.

WWE's George Barrios will be giving a presentation tomorrow at the Needham Interconnect Conference in NYC.

Bret Hart commented on the passing of Roddy Piper to Sports Illustrated noting, "I would be a footnote in this business without Roddy Piper. Roddy took a shine to me and took me under his wing. Maybe it was because I was a Canadian kid like he was, but he protected and looked out for me right from the start from the first time I met him." To read the entire interview, click here.

Here is my interview with Roddy Piper from last year discussing "Pro Wrestlers vs. Zombies" and more:
