Kurt Angle returned to WWE Games with a debut in the 2K Franchise via WWE 2K18. Maybe it’s just my nostalgia blinding my eyes but doesn’t it seem so surreal when it’s actually the performer in the reveal or teaser trailer? Visual Concepts has been seemingly using ai since WWE 2K24 and it’s God Awful IMHO.

It’s kind of sad because Matt Cardona had the Internet game ON-LOCK! He mastered Social Media Marketing even back then during the PG Era. Dean Ambrose is a dark-horse who in my opinion got punished just because he wasn’t really in tuned with the scripts and was revealed to be ad-libbing his promos especially towards the end (2019.)

Mike Tyson’s rage in his youth was unmistakably high. I keep thinking about how this gentleman (if you consider him to be one) was quite literally groomed from a young age to become a boxing beast. And as for Brittany Spears.. Well you know.

Steve Blackman has an action figure with Mattel. But Steve Blackman isn’t in WWE 2K26. Could there be different contract stipulations outside of a Legend’s Deal?

Due to his overall versatility and ability to play as multiple personas, I’d have to go with Brian Adams. Dude was phenomenal as Crush. Rest in Power. This particular list consists of Brian Knobs, Brian Kendrick, Brian Cage, and Brian Adams.

Chew Bubbles, Blow Gum, Fight Crime.

As soon as McQueen hits the wall and begins to levitate in air, you can actually see that the distance was either exaggerated or maybe McQueen’s ability to push himself was working. He was close to the two Next-Gens behind Storm. If it’s to be debated that it’s all in 95’s Head - he may have had a good distance here.

We’ve finally got WCW’s Filthy Animals Rey Mysterio but with an interesting caveat.

WWE ‘13 and 2K14 although weren’t the best in terms of actual simulation gameplay, it had a nice blend of realism and arcade which I think these days can be a great implementation. Nowadays the WWE 2K games are more like “Street Fighter” in my humble opinion.

I chose Brock Lesnar, Curt “Mr. Perfect” Hennig, Dolph Ziggler, and AJ Styles. For some strange reason I like the way they take bumps and in a more weird way - I like the way the blow looks painfully real.

It’s STILL eerie to me how Chris Farley passed away EXACTLY like John Belushi and at the same age of “33.” Now that I think about it, Chris Farley’s entire episode where he hosts SNL in ‘97 is a pure humiliation ritual.

Waylon Mercy AKA Dan Spivey was spotted at Backlash.. I don’t want to look too much into things but he’d be a great addition for the “New Gen” Universe Mode.
