The reveal was hosted by Jerry Lawler, Jim Ross and Damien Sandow.  Justin Roberts handled announcing the names.  Following the reveal, Ric Flair made a special appearance to “confront” Sandow.  Flair said for Sandow to say mention his name in the same sentence in Sandow is the most ridiculous thing he’s heard in the history of the business.  Flair went through his normal routine, including saying to be the man, you have to beat the man. Sandow, continued playing his heel character, before “leaving.”  Flair asked JR how people like that got into the business. JR offered “no comment.”  Flair inadvertently said he loved the people at “Y2K” rather than 2K Sports.

Lawler asked Flair his favorite Wrestlemania moment.  Flair said it was the day he had to retire but being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame then wrestling Shawn Michaels was his favorite Wrestlemania moment.

Flair said forget Warrior, forget Hogan, forget Savage.  You can live by this.  To be the man, you’ve got to beat the man.  And there’s only one kiss stealin, limousine ridin, jet flyin’ son of a gun. Flair told an audience member he was “talkin to her, honey” and that she looked good.
WWE 2K14 comes out Tuesday, October 29, 2013.  You can pre-order now and receive Ultimate Warrior as a playable character.
