[Update: Now with more official box art! Straight from THQ, we've updated the gallery (and the header image) to reflect the official box art.]
Like death and taxes, a new WWE Smackdown vs. Raw title from THQ is a given. This fall is no different, as Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 is set to hit shelves on October 26. Today, the publisher has revealed the cover athletes for the game, so you know what you should be looking for when you head to the store… you know, outside of the fact that it will say "2011" on the box.
If you live in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan or India, here's who you'll see on the cover: John Cena, Big Show, and The Miz. If you're in Europe, however, keep an eye out for Randy Orton , Undertaker, and Sheamus. Did you territory get your superstars of choice, or will you have to move before October?
We'll have more on WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011, including hands-on impressions from a recent THQ event in Los Angeles. Keep your eyes peeled.

The ONLY cover, thank you
I'm hoping for a double sided cover because as great as Taker, Orton and Sheamus are I want to see The Awesome One on the cover.
@ njsykora - Good idea on the reversable cover, one for smackdown stars and one for Raw. You a Miz fan too then? I was pretty shocked when he won MitB
I would argue the opposite. There hasn't been a GOOD wrestling game since No Mercy. It's still the best.
ECW doesnt exist anymore...
---------------------------------------------------
On a side note, I want some Daniel Bryan love and put him on the cover... The was the Top Trending topic on Twitter...
Bryan, but I think they came too late, unless they wanted NXT in early.
And yeah, No Mercy is easily the best WWE game, followed by DoR2.
I was being sarcastic. Duh. No Mercy is a beyond amazing wrestling game. Nothing, and I mean nothing, has even come close.
Agreed. Still, no other game has come close to the complete amount of control you have over your wrestling character(s) in the AKI/Asmik wrestling titles. They seriously need to bring that system back. Or, at the very least, try to emulate it.
