I started a Fire Promoter save recently and so far the most unstoppable monster I've encountered is Def Jam's Fat Joe. He just goes into every match and spams Pedigrees and Bear Hugs until his opponents backs are broken.

so he's a faithful recreation of his source material, good

i believe Fat Joe's name in Fight For New York is CRACK

Rumblethon #13: ECW Hardcore Revolution

Man, that's a finals where I'm happy with who won, even though the other guy really should have pulled it off.

now I haven't memorized the winners of every rumble in the rumblethon history but i feel like the winners of the ECW games are always disappointing because they all also appear in other WWE games

Is there any game that can do an all woman rumble? I was wondering if we might see one if so.

they probably could have done it in Fire Pro with all of the STARDOM dlc but didn't this year

THEN we have the 2k19/2k20 style career mode which felt more like a parody of a wrestling game than an actual career. They try SO HARD to be zany and funny and fail miserably, which to be fair is at least accurate to the real WWE product.

those story modes were a really good display of what the wwe thinks of their audience and the wrestlers who want to be in the wwe

2k20 was made by Visual Concepts, not Yuke's

Yuke's literly quit the franchise because they felt like having to pump out a yearly WWE game was ruining their reputation

What even is the showcase this year i haven't heard anything about it. Like when they had wrestlemania mode or attitude era mode it was like the first bullet point on the box and before this discussion i didn't even know 2k22 had one

i think its extremely funny that their solution to the problem of playing CAWs online causing horrible load times due to everyone having to load the custom decal textures was to make it so the custom decal textures don't work online lol

Could be that the dlc-packs have unannounced characters that are revealed shortly before they're released (for extra visibility).

Wasn't there some other celebrities that were supposed to be in?

Machine Gun Kelly and Logan Paul are in one of the DLC packs

Based on the footage and list of match types, it seems that the game only allows four wrestlers in the ring at one time. That's kind of a bummer.

I won my first match in Fire Pro, just doing the basics over and over. Didn't try anything fancy. Poo score in the end, but I won

I really need to get into a groove where I wrestle with one wrestler, even a CAW, and learn them back to front. There seems to be no career mode in the basic game though.

there are 3 Fighting Road scenarios in the DLCs, one that comes with the first NJPW collaboration DLC, one for the NJPW Juniors and an original story written by Suda 51 that's also a sequel to the story mode he wrote for Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special

the animations look a little stiff and the models look like junk but ill take any decent wrestling game

the animations look less "inspired by" the Aki games and more "directly stolen from" the Aki games
