Yeah, the PS4 Hulkamania edition just came up on Gamestop a few days ago here stateside and I snagged a copy before they sold out again. Paid way too much for it so hopefully Amazon restocks before Gamestop ships. Oh well, it includes an autograph and a Funko POP which I've been collecting anyway.
While seeing guys like Graves, Neville and Zayn is great, I think they should have went out and included EVERY major talent on the roster including women (Charlotte, Sasha, Bayley, Becky etc). This year seems fairly uneventful compared to 13 and 2K14's stacked lineups. We still don't know about every 2K Showcase feud yet which could mean more wrestlers that have yet to be announced, but meh. I'm not as excited about the NXT portion of MyCareer as I thought.
And seeing Sheiky Baby as DLC is the best ever... ...but as Colonel Mustafa?
(please include him in Superstar Heads 2K I will love you forever)

More news released: - Marcus Stephenson is once again the WWE Game Community Manager, one of the best community managers WWE Games have had over the years, very socially active and is now incharge of the WWEGames Twitter account. - Just to confirm Vickie Guerrero & William Regal are exclusive to the PS4 and Xbox One versions, although it's not known if they are playable. Steven Regal (DLC) will however be a separate character from William Regal in the same fashion of multiple characters we've had in previous years. - WWEGames also confirmed that they will be using the current WWE Logo for only MOST of the game, having to use the previous one in some aspects as their art concept deadline was in August. - There is more slot on the in-game roster that has not been revealed yet, and they confirmed they won't be announcing them so that players have a surprise while they are playing the game. This could confirm more NXT characters aswell as afew Main Roster characters.

I get the feeling the "secret" characters will just be the duplicates like retro Rock, retro Cena etc. Don't forget, they count as separate characters

They said so players would be "surprised while playing the game". I am hoping they don't mean "Players will be surprised to know how thoughtless we are to their wants". So fingers crossed if its retro versions of wrestlers 2K will sell the license to someone who gives a shit.

So fingers crossed if its retro versions of wrestlers 2K will sell the license to someone who gives a shit. Here's something to think about. They've confirmed retro Triple H in the showcase mode thing, and retro Orton in the new trailer. Retro Hogan was one of the first selection screen pic things we seen. None of them are listed on the roster page. WWE.com confirmed Nash, Booker T, and Flair, none of them are listed either.

Shows the in-game models of Luke Harper, Batista, Randy Orton, Cesaro, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler and one of the Uso's. Also shows up the Cesaro Apron Superplex OMG moment, The Luke Harper Suicide Dive (possibly an OMG moment like the Undertaker's from previous games), The Sister Abigail (which looks like a corner finisher in the same style as the Sweet Chin Music and the Spear) aswell as a new tag team move, the Batista Bomb/RKO combo.

Courtesy of Top Heel on the 2K Sports forums via NeoGAF, here's a detailed listing/compilation of things included/not included in CURRENT GEN (PS360) WWE 2K15 (Link: forums.2k.com/showthread.php?781281-WWE-2K15-info-on-last-gen-by-people-who-has-the-game-summary-of-what%B4s-being-revealed)(Images courtesy RBH on NeoGAF): Avoid the PS3/360 2K15 at ALL costs. TL;DR VERSION:-Custom music removed. -Story Designer removed. -Create a Finisher removed. All in what seems like the same game as last year with newer characters, a few NXT wrestlers and FAR less legends than 2K14. Stick with 13 and 2K14 for CAW unless the so-called "advanced CAW options" make things easier. Could be worthwhile for exclusively online shows or those that don't make use of created finishers or Story Designer. I can understand removing these options in next-gen but for current-gen, this is a huge step back.

Highlight Reel, Story Designer & CAF are gone on WWE2K15 on the 360/PS3 versions which also means they are not in the next-gen versions aswell.
Oh Well. ¯\_O_/¯

Yep. Just as I thought, replays in any form are gone.
If you're a CAW producer and buy 2K15 with the sole interest of using it for that purpose, you may as well light your money on fire while flushing it down your toilet. 2K14 and previous editions are still the way to go.
I hate when developers do shit like this, it's no wonder many of the games I follow are so underwhelming this generation. It's like 2K took a cue from the EA Sports NHL 15 school of questionable decision-making.

People are already claiming CAW to be dead cause of them being removed. lol

Actually, this is a good thing. Lots of people won't be wasting their time painstakingly remaking every character this year! And they'll be saving 60+ dollars (or your country's equivalent)!
This should be a time when people get creative and (A) either use what the new game has and still find ways to work with it or (B) find new ways to do stuff with the older games that had those features.
If CAW "dies" because of this, it's because people can't think outside the box and only take what Yukes gives them. It's not the end of the world. Keep doing what you've done in past games. Hopefully if a PC version ever comes out there will be mods that allow us to completely deconstruct the game and bring back some, or all, of that functionality.
That, or people should consider modding their PS3's or 360's and use the older games that way. I know I've considered it but it may have to take me buying a second console just for that purpose. May not be worth it if the series ever comes to PC.

Sticking with 2k14 and WWE'13. 2k15 is not giving us the features to have our creative medium so I am not buying it for that medium. I will make my CAW, my moveset and play with friends but I wont be making a league on it whatsoever.
