Monday Night War Edition
Hot on the heels of the Attitude Era Edition announcement, WWE revealed another premium SKU: the Monday Night War Edition. Scheduled to share the same pre-order date and release window, this edition celebrates the epic wrestling TV battles between WWF and WCW in the mid-’90s, featuring branding and characters from both sides of the historic rivalry.
The deluxe version of this product will have a $149.99 price because it provides 48-hour early access and includes more content than any other edition which makes it attractive to both collectors and devoted fans.
