Fans will get to play as the 1976 version of the star when he was in his prime. Along with that, his pro wrestling arch-nemesis Superstar Billy Graham is also in the pack. While fans will also get to play as the Undashing Masked Cody and the infamous Stardust, the pre-order bundle will include a very special manager.
