35 new WWE 2K17 roster names leaked, including Becky Lynch, AJ Styles and Dudley Boyz

Power to the super-sleuths of caws.ws – the independent wrestling community has once more dropped a load of new names for WWE 2K17. 

Last week one enterprising contributor worked out a percentage of the final roster, by using numeric codes in the image addresses for each wrestler released so far.

This time out it’s forum poster Komenda who wins pats on the back, for spotting images for 35 new characters in the IGN app’s search bar. (The gaming site has a timed exclusive on the roster reveal.)  He's rounded them all up in a series of imgur posts, such as the one below:

Links to all the other images can be found in his original caws.ws post.

Newly added to the game this year are AJ Styles, Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch, and Dana Brooke, while the Dudley Boyz return after a series absence of more than a decade.

Back in after an appearing in WWE 2K16 are Alundra Blayze, Arn Anderson, Bam Bam Bigelow, Bo Dallas, The Bushwhackers, Christian, Curtis Axel, Dolph Ziggler, Emma, Eva Marie, Fandango, Kofi Kingston, Lita, Mr Perfect, Naomi, Natalya, Neville, Randy Savage, Rick Rude, Shawn Michaels, Stardust, Sting, Summer Rae, Tamina, Tatsumi Fujinami, Trish Stratus, Tyler Breeze, and Xavier Woods.

We'll keep you up to speed on these and all future roster announcements via our ongoing WWE 2K17 roster gallery.

I'm GamesRadar's sports editor, and obsessed with NFL, WWE, MLB, AEW, and occasionally things that don't have a three-letter acronym – such as Chvrches, Bill Bryson, and Streets Of Rage 4. (All the Streets Of Rage games, actually.) Even after three decades I still have a soft spot for Euro Boss on the Amstrad CPC 464+.
