WWE 17 Roster Drops Next Week
2K today announced that WWE portrait artist Rob Schamberger will attend the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) to reveal the latest roster members in WWE 2K17.
Schamberger will appear at 2K’s E3 booth where he will paint the new WWE 17 roster inclusions on a sizable canvas in a live setting.
Show attendees are encouraged to check in with Rob’s work throughout all three days of the show – June 14-16, 2016 – to see if their favorite WWE Superstars and Legends are officially announced for what’s certain to be another extensive WWE 17 roster for the franchise.
A Kansas City native, Schamberger’s portraits of WWE Superstars – both past and present – have made him a sought after staple in the WWE Universe. His unique artwork has raised money for several charities, including the Make-a-Wish Foundation, and is available for sale to the public through WWE Auction (originals) WWE Shop (shirts and prints). Schamberger is often seeing painting live at various WWE events, including WrestleMania Axxess, SummerSlam and Monday Night Raw, as well as through the popular WWE weekly painting series on YouTube, Canvas 2 Canvas. In addition, his art has seen display at several national museums and galleries, adorns the walls of many WWE Superstar homes and can be found in the hallways of WWE’s Stamford, Conn. headquarters.
