That pisses me off too.



When she debuted on June 13, 2006, Kelly Kelly became the youngest Diva in all of sports-entertainment. A self-proclaimed exhibitionist, she put on strip shows dubbed "Kelly Kelly's Exposé" for our fans and won several body competitions.

After an ugly break-up with Mike Knox, Kelly clinged to a pair of equally spicy Divas, including Layla. The trio billed themselves as Extreme Exposé, though they would go their separate ways when The Miz, who owns the Divas' contracts, promised to make Kelly's life a living hell if she dated Balls Mahoney. Ignoring the Superstars' warnings, the blonde pursued and suffered the consequences, though she has proven herself in the ring while fending off any attacks from The Miz, Layla or anybody else.

I'm getting a little worried about the roster...I mean as happy as I was to see Santino and even Beth...the fact is all 4 people confirmed through the countdown were pretty much locks

Maybe I'm weird, but I've always played as the undercard guys more than the big names...so the roster is pretty important for me. I couldn't get around how awful it was last year.

That being said, it's still early...so we'll see.

Growing up on the dangerous streets of urban Orangeburg, S.C., Shelton Benjamin felt pressure to join gangs. He lived in an area known for drug trafficking and weapons use, hung out with drug dealers and even found himself in the crossfire of several gunfights. To say that life was rough is an understatement, and Shelton admits that he could have easily slipped through the cracks and fallen into the traps of his hometown.

But rather than ending up on the wrong side of the tracks, he exceeded everyone's expectations; instead of getting caught up in the drugs and violence, Shelton got his life on track. An exceptional athlete, Shelton won two South Carolina state high school heavyweight wrestling championships. He was accepted to the University of Minnesota, continuing his career as a stand-out amateur wrestler and eventually becoming a WWE Superstar. And after all he went through early on in life, it's no wonder that Benjamin is so self-confident in the squared circle.

Achieving the goal of becoming a WWE Superstar was a life-long dream for Benjamin – a longtime sports-entertainment fan. Ever since he was young, Shelton was awed by the athleticism he saw in the ring each week on television. In fact, he even remembers the match that first caught his eye – Magnum T.A. vs. Wahoo McDaniel for the United States Championship in 1985.

Not only a great athlete, Benjamin also excels at video games, at one point winning the annual WrestleMania fan fest championship tournament three years in a row.

Are you ready?

Each and every day, IGN brings you a brand new wrestler on the WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 roster, but we're not content to just give you glimpses of the latest Superstars. For the second year in a row, IGN brings you a weekly treat every Friday -- either a reader-led Q&A with THQ or a wrestling match shown in its entirety that the readers picked by voting on the IGN SVR board.

This week, it's the debut of Friday Fights.

Yes, over on the boards the kids voted on what match they wanted and who they wanted to see in it. Below is the fruits of democracy.

Enjoy

Wooo Shelton Had a feeling it'd be either him or MVP today. Felt weird not having him in last year.

haha, Justin Roberts did an awful announcing job there.

As for the Friday Night Fights...pretty cool little addition there where they showed Finlay staring down Santino as Santino made his entrance

I'm a little annoyed.

Also, while I rather hear Joey Styles, part of me was wishing for Adamie to be in.

ROFL last night someone on IGN posted a link to another board, where someone had a "magazine scan" leaking the entire roster. It was ridiculously well done, but it was obviously fake.

The roster had 70 active superstars and no legends (like 12 useless divas)...and it would have been the most outdated roster of all time because it was seemingly based no later than early January.

The things that made it obviously fake include:

1. Big Show was in there despite not returning until No Way Out, whereas a guy like Kofi Kingston was missing even though he debuted earlier
2. Chuck Palumbo wasn't there even though he actually had a big storyline at that point (Jamie Noble however, did get in)
3. People who were rarely used, MIA, or injured for a long time like Boogeyman, Helms, Dykstra, and Mike Knox all somehow made the cut
4. Jobbers like Balls, Nunzio, and Stevie got in somehow
5. Shane McMahon was in and on the Raw roster for some reason
and
6. OVR ratings and brands were included...all of the OVRs of people we've seen in the countdown were all wrong and the brands were outdated to reflect the time period (ie: Chavo and Kane on SD, Shelton on ECW, etc)...I suppose those two things are easily changeable, but its still clearly fake...case in point, I remember Vince had a higher OVR than Regal.

I was gonna post the pic here but the boards were down for a while last night and I can't find the topic on IGN anymore. If I find it I'll post it. But yeah, I just find it hilarious how not only did someone go through the trouble of making a top-notch mag scan replica but people actually believed it.

Actually I'd be pretty psyched if it turned out to be true because like I said, I like using a lot of the undercard guys and this roster had a fuckload of them.

Funny, I know him as Robert.

In all seriousness though, real curious about how it all winds up. Ledesma (who obviously tends to be full of shit) said it would be the biggest roster yet...but then Bryan Williams (who is actually pretty good) said it would be 30-40% larger than last year which would be a solid 65+.

Be pretty funny if we get a 65+ roster in a year where DLC is likely to be brought in.

Man, I hate this thread when the countdown starts. My scrollwheel gets a hell of a workout.

Kinda psyched for this after the CAF video though. If the iMPACT game has good gameplay (bar it's obvious online/moveset flaws) I hope they steal it.

Hailing from the tropical climate of the Caribbean Sea, Jamaican Superstar Kofi Kingston brings unique in-ring abilities, style and lingo to Raw.

For weeks, WWE fans were offered a glimpse into Kingston's island paradise where the vibrant Superstar took troublesome matters into his own capable hands. Mixing it up with his lightning quick arsenal while maintaining his bright, amiable smile, Kofi undoubtedly made ECW his own private Island of the Extreme.

Kofi has engaged in a series matches against Shelton Benjamin as of late. Although he had done incredibly well in them, Benjamin is responsible for giving Kingston's his first loss in WWE. Rather than slowing him down, this has only inspired Kofi to work harder and do ever better in the future.

The day after defeating ECW's Gold Standard in an Extreme Rules Match, Kofi Kingston was randomly drafted to Raw in the Supplemental Draft on June 25. The Jamaican Superstar will now be looking to make an impact on Monday nights.Source: WWE.com

I hope they have Orton's new theme in here. That's what custom music is for I guess.

Yeah, and Kofi Kingston sucks.

I'll prolly change Orton's stalking RKO to a regular front-move RKO just because I prefer everyone having at least one front (or back) finisher, so they won't be totally useless in backstage matches.

The Boot looks awesome.

News on the Road to WrestleMania mode will be up on IGN soon and apparently the news will also have an impact on the countdown starting tomorrow.

Real interested in hearing about the mode...even if its only a 3 month story, if everybody you can use in it (even if its only around 20) has a unique story then it could at least be replayable.

Breaking records, pumping iron and devastating opponents with his unmatched strength, it's no wonder they call Mark Henry the World's Strongest Man.

Mark Henry's rise to fame began in 1992 at the Olympics in Barcelona, where he competed in weightlifting in the super-heavyweight division.

Three years later at the Pan American Games, Henry captured a gold, silver and bronze medal, solidifying his place as one of the strongest men ever to walk the planet. He has also engaged in Strongman competitions, including the 2002 "World's Strongest Man" competition at the Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic, where Henry earned first prize.

Henry began his WWE career in 1996, and the future looks frightening for anybody that gets in Henry's way. After battling back from many obstacles including periods of down time and uncertainty due to injuries suffered through the years of his career, he is now at the top of his game.

After being drafted to the Land of the Extreme, Henry reached the pinnacle of his career by capturing the ECW Championship. He was also recently named the "Second Strongest Man That Ever Lived" by Flex Magazine. And above all else, he has vowed to destroy anyone who gets in his way.

Wow

Triple H
CM Punk
The Undertaker
John Cena
Chris Jericho
Batista & Rey Mysterio (Tag Team)

That's it for playable characters in Road to WrestleMania mode......granted, each has a totally different story with possible different endings. But christ, of that list I'd probably only be Jericho or Punk.

Also, the rosters for it are pre-WM obviously...which probably means you can't be a heel in story mode yet again

Also, those 7 guys will represent the next 7 days of the Countdown, along with a vid of each character's story

Let's be frank: the single-player career in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008 wasn't that great. WrestleMania was in the same city every year, the storyline repeated, and characters were forced into situations that they'd never be in on the show so the players never felt like they were actually walking in that Superstar's boots.

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 is looking to change all that with Road to WrestleMania.

Rather than have a mode that drops whatever character you pick into an incredibly generalized, vanilla story, THQ and Yukes have created six completely original, character-specific storylines for you to tackle this year. Pick up your controller, and you can take on the show-to-show life of Triple H, CM Punk, Undertaker, John Cena, Chris Jericho, or the tag team of Batista and Rey Mysterio.



As you play these storylines, you'll have to deal with fights breaking out backstage, the McMahons interfering, your friends turning on you and more. There will even be optional match objectives -- such as beating someone in a certain amount of time or putting them through a table -- that will unlock SVR 09 bonus content such as hidden characters, new environments, and new match types.

"We really wanted Road to WrestleMania Mode to differentiate itself from Exhibition matches," said Bryan Williams, THQ creative manager. "Though they all have their own vibe, each story promises plenty of twists and turns while staying true to the characters players follow every Monday, Tuesday and Friday night as part of WWE programming."

Williams said that the fully voiced cutscenes that drive the tales make up about two and half hours of the -- roughly -- 14 hours it'll take you to play through all six stories. Of course, that overall time estimate doesn't include the multiple paths and multiple endings.



"We've worked hard to make everything look, sound and feel like you're a part of WWE programming," Williams said. "It's the little details, such as match-specific commentary and end-of-show trademark graphics, which we think hardcore WWE fans will appreciate."

Sounds cool, no? Well, we'll have a full-fledged hands-on preview going up next Monday, but today's announcement is also going to be reflected in the IGN SmackDown Countdown, which is where we reveal a SVR 09 Superstar every day. Starting tomorrow -- Wednesday, September 10 -- the Countdown will begin profiling the seven Superstars from Road to WrestleMania and giving you video snippets of their storyline in addition to their traditional Countdown vid.

It's a good time to be a wrestling fan on IGN.

I'm really just irked at the fact that, just like all SD games, you won't be able to be a heel.

This new mystery mode is meant to give you free reign though, we'll see.
