Last week, RPadholic N8R was kind enough to list the upcoming DLC for WWE 13. The list got me thinking, and suddenly I thought up of my own dream DLC packs. It was a fun exercise, though I imagined too many drug-related packs (The Drug Traffickers, led by Jeff Hardy) and way too many packs based on dead pro-wrestlers. Today I’m going to list four of the DLC packs that I came up with and I’d love to see ones from you. In the immortal words of Michael Wilbon, “Let’s do it!”
WWE Diva Playboy Spectacular
Sable — The first high-profile Diva to go nude in Playboy.
Torrie Wilson — The muscular girl next door.
Ashley Masaro — Surprisingly good spread.
Maryse Ouellet — Technically she was in the magazine before her WWE days, but wow…you need to Google these.Sex-Tape Sultans
Chyna — She’s an adult-film star now, but she made tons of waves with “1 Night in Chyna.”
Sean “1-2-3 Kid” Waltman — Chyna’s costar.
Hulk Hogan — Caught on film sleeping with his best friend’s ex-wife.The Dog Pound
Junkyard Dog — JYD was awesome.
“Mad Dog” Vachon — A total bad ass, even though his real name was Maurice and he was 5′ 7″.
“The Road Dog” Jesse James — Oh, you didn’t know?!?
“The Dog-Faced Gremlin” Rick Steiner — A total suplex machine in the NWA/WCW days.Figure-Four Phenoms
“The Nature Boy” Ric Flair — The signature hold of the best pro-wrestler of all time.
“The Nature Boy” Buddy Rogers — Often cited as the inventor of the “figure-four grapevine.”
Greg “The Hammer” Valentine — For many WWF fans that didn’t watch NWA, he was the master of the figure-four.
Jeff Jarrett — Every group needs a bitch.
Those are just four of the DLC packs that I imagined. I’m sure that you could come up with better ones, so give it a go! Please use the comments section to list the WWE 13 DLC packs of your dreams.

It doesn’t matter that they’re in the game. They can always be put in DLC with alternate costumes. :p
Glacier and the Gobbledy Gooker need to be in your Terrible Gimmick DLC for sure.
Glacier… brilliant.

Insert Samoan wrestler here. Thanks to WWF, I actually thought that Samoans genetically had extra calcium deposits in their skulls. Gorilla Monsoon’s commentating was that convincing.
