It would be better as a crossover still. There can only be one Suplex god.

Sabin confirmed as Wrestler Job npc teacher

For people who don't know, Xavier Woods is a big fan of FFXIV.
He is a member of The New Day, a WWE tag team.
The New Day are hosting Wrestlemania this year, so they will likely have a segment where they just come out to the ring to talk.
Last year at Wrestlemania The New Day came out of a giant box of cereal dressed like DBZ characters.


So I would not be surprised to see them dressed like Samurai/Red Mages. Although I think Xavier plays a bard, so maybe he'll dress like that instead.

Let A.J. Styles does the dragon kick please.

I hate the WWE and pro wrestling in general. That said the 7 year old boy from the 80's would kill for an André the Giant or Macho Man glamour.

I have seen a macho man savage player standing around in Limsa before on my server. I am sure he will be pleased with this.

Assuming it's real, at most it will probably just be a paid advertisement during Wrestlemania, I don't see it as that big a deal. I mean WoW paid for super bowl commercials right? I don't see the big deal with SE paying to advertise during Wrestlemania.

Either real or fake, all I can see now is Yoshida competing in the main event O.O, so can see it now. Yoshida comes out dressed in a Titan wrestler outfit and screaming "WEIGHT OF THE LAND" while jumping off the turnbuckle.

Hmm, I haven't watched wrestling since all my favorite wrestlers are either dead or retired, but this might make it interesting.

Well I highly doubt WWE could take the time to pull a april fools joke on XIV unless SE paid them to do so which I don't see SE going to through lengths just for a joke. Cause WWE was promoting XIV during NXT takeover last night. Cause I also don't think it a paid spot cause if really wanted to promote game to WWE fans it would been better to buy ad time for Wrestlemania (today 4/2) instead of yesterday during NXT.

John Cena to be the Ninja because you can't see him
