Seeing as they have to have the wrestlers they use under a contract for their rights, this would be the roster so far.
Steve Austin Ric Flair Roddy Piper Andre the Giant Bret Hart Godon Solie Eddie Graham Gerald/Jack Brisco Mae Young Rocky Johnson The Rock Peter Maivia Wild Samoans The Sheik Jerry Lawler Dusty Rhoads Tony Atlas The BlackJacks Sensational Sherri Eddie Guerreo The Iron Sheik Hulk Hogan Tito Santana Billy Graham Sgt. Slaughter Junkyard Dog Jesse Ventura Harley Race Pat Patterson Killer Kowalski Jimmy Snuka The Fabulous Moolah RVD The Sandman Honkey tonk Man Road Warriors Deisel Razor Ramon Now while they could have any of these, I doubt they will have all of them, but also anyone they sign a licensed contract with from now til the game comes out can be used (Ex- Warrior/Goldberg/Lesnar/Angle)

I hope it is improved over 08 and features a lot of good legends. The main thing I'm concerned with is the game play which I hope has made some improvements.
