WWE 12 Retail Early Impressions

Can someone clarify this whole Rock thing. Do I have it right.

Pre-order and you get the Rock.

Don't pre-order and you have to pay to download him.

Is there a way to unlock him or do you have to buy him?

In the Sunday ads for tomorrow at Target and Best Buy, they both say that The Rock DLC is free with purchase. Also at Best Buy, you can get The Rock DVD for free with it.

I'm going to assume this means that tag teams have to be in a stable to challenge for them? Also the same person is saying that there is a similar problem for singles titles. Can you confirm these things? Seems like we still don't have complete freedom with title matches after all.

They do have to be in a team to challenge for the titles. In my universe, Cena and Ryder formed on their own and they are holding the belts as of now. I haven't seen a problem with singles titles though?

Doesn't sound like a problem to me then. I don't want 2 random single wrestlers being tag team champions and if it's anything like last year it only took maybe 10 seconds to set up a team anyways.

Yea, although it has happened before with two individuals thrown together who win the titles, often they end up as a team for awhile afterwards. See Austin/Michaels for example.
