Bane

He was born in the darkness… molded by it. With no interest in making any friends, he’s here to crash this event with no survivors, as practice for Gotham City. Armed with a big arsenal of sources, even for you, the amount of fire tracks Bane brings to the album will rise to heights higher than a man being shot and thrown out a plane. He’s also searching for Dr. Pavel… just what does he want with him?

Segata Sanshiro

Thought to be dead for over 20 years, Segata Sanshiro barely survives because of the cyborg tech the evil organization Shocker installed in him back in 1971. Now he’s back to spread the word of the Sega Saturn once more and recapture the nostalgia of many through the console’s wide selection of excellent game soundtracks in King for Another Day (Beta Mix)!

Zubaz (The Storm)

Excuse me? Who let this hobo into the roster? …What do you mean he’s an actual invitee?! Are you sure?? W-who-baz? OK. Starting off the (Beta Mix) roster, we have the forgotten wrestler in bullfighter attire, the man with no game, THE STORM. Zubaz strikes his way into the fray marking his territory as the most fitting first pick amongst the rejected characters. That’s kinda sad now that you think about it, huh?
