THQ has towelled off some of the sweaty hulks that will be appearing in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009.

The brand new faces are Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Rey Mysterio, Batista, John Morrison and The Miz. We vaguely remember Shawn Michaels, but then he did start throwing himself around the ring back in 1987.

Previously confirmed attendees will include John Cena, Chris Jericho, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy and Mr. Kennedy.

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 will introduce downloadable content for PS3 and Xbox 360, plus a tag team system that lets you build up and then unleash co-operative moves. You may also be able to uncover tag team storylines along the way. Storylines.

The Wii and DS offerings will also be polished in individual ways.

Let's hope it pins down better than last year's 6/10 effort, then.

Doubt it. The games just get worse over time, with the developers having no urge to make a game that's worth playing.

So, basically, they've released the names of some wrestlers who we knew were going to be in it anyway? Wow, shocking!

I'll buy it anyway, I always do.
