That's a cool cover. What will this game be like? Legends of Wrestling?

It uses the Smackdown engine. So it should be quite fun.

It makes sense to me... The 2 biggest Wrestlemanias' Main Events (III where it was Hogan vs. Andre the Giant and 17 where it was Austin vs. The Rock) The most memorable match of Wrestlemania 18 (Hogan vs. The Rock) and the 2 greatest managers in Wrestlemania history (Jimmy Hart and Bobby Heenan....duh.) It looks pretty sweet too.
