It is a shame not to see Eugene in but there is a way to create him search for smackdown vs raw roster in google and one of the links takes you to a site and it shows you how to create him. It is obvious this will be the best wrestling game ever. THQ states there is twice more polygones used than before. When this come out in late November all wrestling fans should own a copy by christmas.
