2K are set to release WWE 2K16 at the end of October and one surprise addition to the roster this year was that of Arnold Schwarzenegger who is also known as The Terminator.
The actor was added to the game as a preorder exclusive and will be available as two different playable characters – one from 1984 and another from 1991’s Terminator 2: Judgement Day.
IGN caught up with Schwarzenegger ahead of the release of the game and spoke about what his wrestler name would be, others he’d like to see in the WWE and who is stronger between him and Brock Lesnar.
If he were to get into the ring, what his wrestler name would be:
Maybe the Austrian Oak, which is what people called me in bodybuilding. I think I would have been a good guy, not a heel. But I’ve loved playing both – I’m the only person on both the “Best Villains” and “Best Heroes” list as Terminator.
IGN also asked which other characters of his he’d like to see in the WWE:
Not mine, but a character I have fought: the Predator. Can you imagine the Predator jumping into the ring?
When he was in his prime IGN asked who was stronger, him or Brock Lesnar:
I’ve stood next to Brock. He is a monster. I am not sure I would want to ever compete in a lifting tournament with someone that big.
Just who are Arnold’s favourite wrestlers of all time:
I love them all, The Rock, Stone Cold, but I really identify with Bruno Sammartino. He is a fellow immigrant, and he is truly a legend. He sold out Madison Square Garden 187 times! And he is so powerful.
I remember the first time I saw him picking up someone over his head. Imagine the power. And he is the sweetest, most inspirational guy.
WWE 2K16 is scheduled for release on the PS3. PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One consoles in North America on October 27th, followed by the international release on October 30th.
