Based on the announcement posted on the website, the match generation system for the 17<sup>th installment of the best-selling wrestling video game has been revamped. This means that the similar match cards that were featured in all the previous game copies have been changed. "Now players shouldn't see the same card when comparing Universes with their friends.
