two new pics found, one is The British Bulldog when he was in the game and the other shows his and Kurt Angles stats

edit - I removed the pics since it stretched the page but go to http://www.smackdown6.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3965 to view them, and here the info I found that goes with the Booker T/Big Show,Triple H and Rey Mysterio pics I posted last week

An extended interview from the EGM cutting room floor

EGM: It's called Smackdown! vs. Raw, so can I assume the two shows are gonna play a major factor in the story mode? If so, how?
Cory Ledesma, Associate Producer: The showdown between the two brands will be a major theme in all aspects of the game including Season mode, front end menus, voice over and gameplay. As far as storylines goes, without giving away too much, there will definitely be clashes between the two brands that will result in epic battles.

EGM: Are you bringing back WWE writers to create original storylines again?

Ledesma: We work closely with the WWE and their writers to find out what directions they are taking with their Superstars and their storylines. This definitely serves as the underline foundation for what we do. The emphasis has been put on creating storylines that are completely original as well as putting our own spin on some past great WWE storylines. This unique blend of storylines will satisfy WWE fans while delivering a compelling and rewarding experience.

EGM: Online -- it's gonna make it into this version, right?

Ledesma: It is being strongly considered.

EGM: What's the real focus of this year's game? What distinguishes it from last year's product and the rest of the competition?

Ledesma: Our focus this year has been a major undertaking. We are completely overhauling the key areas of the game including gameplay, Season mode, graphics and audio. Detailed features for each of the game areas will be announced shortly. We are very excited about SmackDown Vs. Raw. It is the biggest leap we have made from one year to another.

EGM: Any other T&A besides the bra and panty matches?

Ledesma: Pushing the T&A factor is one of the big focuses for this year. Our goal is to increase the overall sex appeal and quality of our Diva models as well as their sexy animations. We want our consumers to get really excited about seeing and playing with our Divas. The increased Sex Factor will be apparent from when the game boots up, to the new Diva Spanking mechanic in Bra and Panty matches and all the way to storylines rewarding you with scoring with the Divas. Also, additional "T&A" elements will be rewarded this year to users in the form of unlockables.

EGM: How many wrestlers total? Any more wrestling legends?

Ledesma: WWE SmackDown Vs. Raw will have a roster of over 45 WWE Superstars from both the Raw and SmackDown brands. There will also be some of the biggest legend names to unlock.
