"Rowdy" Roddy Piper was originally going to be an official playable wrestler, and would have featured his Wrestlemania 1 and 2 matches in the "30 Years of Wrestlemania" mode. However, 2K could not reach an agreement with Mr. T, who faced Piper in these matches, to feature him in the game, so neither were officially playable in the game. However, all of Piper's logos can be found in the WWE logos section, and Roddy Piper's face/body are selectable in WWE Faces mode.
