Seems like this has been fixed. I just used classic Christian and he was announced and talked about by Cole and Lawler fine.

Not sure if this is new, but during my last exhibition match using classic Christian, Cole talked about how the next time WWE comes to you on PPV it would be Survivor Series. Thought that was pretty cool.

I hope this isn't a bad sign, but I haven't seen any of those "today's remarkable matches" in about 3-4 months worth of simming in my Universe.

And since they modes are separate now, I can do things like disband Demolition, where as in exhibition, I'd definitely like it if they came out together. But if it takes splitting them in Universe mode to get something done, so be it.

But it wasnt one, you can turn it off every time you ran an exibition match by only pressing the R stick (360)

Also, if you didnt want a team or stable participating in your universe, it was easy as moving them from the raw/smackdown roster inside universe mode while nothing being effected in exibition..

I'm noticing that the cards for Smackdown and Raw are nearly identical each week. For instance, if the main event of Raw is a triple-threat steel cage match, that will also be the main event of Smackdown. You can change this, of course, but I still found it odd.

And it doesn't happen every week, either. Just more than I'm sure some people would prefer.

And I'd find it annoying having to turn it off every single exhibition match I played. Now it's not even a problem. They are separate modes, as they should be. Universe is like a modern day GM mode of sorts. Exhibition should have nothing to do with that.

So Rated RKO has its own theme and entrance this year?

Rated RKO has a Titantron video, but no music.
