WWE 2K24: 5 new features we’d like to see (that are completely unreasonable)

As has been the case for the last few years, the Road to WrestleMania also means the Road to the Next WWE 2K game. Releasing on March 8, 2024 - almost a month before this year’s Showcase of the Immortals - WWE 2K24 will, theoretically, improve on the features implemented over the past few editions.

A new WWE game also means sites like ours running an obligatory “features we want to see” article. Which is fine - we wouldn’t be writing them if you fine folks weren’t reading them. But, every now and then, we like to do something a little bit different.

Back in 2019, leading up to the release of WWE 2K20, we ran a list of new game features we wanted to see that were, well, less than reasonable. Go search it out, if only to see how poorly it's aged. (Seriously, we were still whining about Roman Reigns not being a heel then.)

Well, it’s been five years, so…let’s do it again. As before, we’ll include an actually reasonable suggestion to go along with the crazy one. Obviously, it’s a bit late to add any of these to WWE 2K24 (we assume, anyway - what do we know?), but it’s still fun to talk about.

It’s not uncommon during a televised match for a wrestler to come down from the back to join the commentary team. It’s usually a champion casually discussing how it doesn’t matter which of those two jabronies in the ring wins the match; neither is good enough to take his title from him. He also probably uses a lot of catchphrases.

Well, we want that in a WWE 2K game - except we want it for any match, and we’re not just talking bouts during a Showcase mode. If there’s a match between Rey Mysterio and Ivar from the Viking Raiders, and we want Akira Tozawa to come down and do commentary for whatever reason, we should be able to make that
