I had already used my pass with my gold account, so maybe if you have that code you will be OK, but I have to think this isn't a good sign.

Thanks for checking on that. The code didn't make a difference last year.

Just a rental to play through the story then. They don't seem to realize most people don't share CAWs anymore and say to go download them so that's a large part of the game missing. There's clearly no excuse for this to not be available,I just rented 2K12 the other week and had full access to downloading and uploading rosters,highlights etc.,I didn't even upload the right thing for the achievement at first and PS3 users don't need PSN+ which makes it entirely inexcusable. There was a contest on the dashboard for free gold and there's 500 of them so maybe if I get that but otherwise no downloading = no buy. THQ or Yuke's or whoever it is that's responsible for this should be ashamed of themselves.

Can you create your own title matches for unranked titles in Universe?

So, say I want to bring the European title back; could I put all the other unranked belts on a legend in WCW, give someone the European title, and make them defend it when I want?

Also, is it possible to swap out major and minor titles in the middle of your Universe or is it something you set from the beginning? I want my CAW to get rid of the god awful spinner belt and bring some attitude back to wrestling when he wins the WWE title in Universe.

Maybe a stupid question but is there any improvements to CAW names for entrances. I got so sick of hearing...

"Now coming to the ring...the Superstar".

I don't have the game but call names have indeed been improved. There is a much bigger list to choose from that has much more variety, such as having alot of real names instead of gimmick names. Also for the first time you're able to string up to 4 different names together, to allow for alot more possibilities. So yes, CAW announce names should be much less generic this year.

Just wish they would add a feature where you could do your own announcing or download someone like Howard Finkel saying the name or that gal that used to do it and upload it for the entrance.

But still good news it's been improved.

I doubt you can defend non-sanctioned belts. You can only have 4 on a brand and if the European isn't one of them, then it won't be defended. You can have someone wear it as a novelty, i.e. Shane McMahon.

Hey man great work on replying to every comment
I've a question ?
If u ever played against someone else in a 1 on 1 match......how does it feel ? Does thr match feel slow and sluggish....or is there action in the match and the flow of the match ?

You could do title matches in Universe with the secondary belts last year so I hope they didn't take that out.
