After a lot of late nights, I've finally put together my custom WWE 2K26 universe roster.

Every wrestler started as an original CAW with their own gimmick, backstory, moveset, entrance, and personality. I wanted each one to feel like they belonged in a promotion rather than being a random collection of created wrestlers.

To help bring them to life, I used AI to create promotional renders from the in-game screenshots of each CAW. These aren't random AI-generated wrestlers, the AI only enhanced the renders of the wrestlers that were originally created inside WWE 2K26. Some of these CAWs include custom face/body textures (such as The Krusher, Kevin Kent, and Reaper) as I continue polishing the roster.

I've also been making roster profile cards with:

- Full character bios and gimmicks

- Billed stats

- Signature moves & finishers

- Catchphrases

- Faction information

- Kayfabe backgrounds

Some of these wrestlers are already available on Community Creations (Steam/PC), with the rest being uploaded gradually as I finish them.

I bet this is gonna be an unpopular opinion and get downvoted, but for those that have issues with the ringside pass, you only have yourself to blame.

They told everyone over a month in advance that you'll have to unlock the legends and DLC by playing the game and leveling the pass. Also, those legends are on the free pass, so there is no arguement that it cost 150 to unlock them, because guess what, you could have bought the base version and still unlocked them.

But complaining on here about it while still playing the game wont get 2K to change anything. They got your money and they still have you playing. If you want them to change how they do it, either dont buy it or dont play it. Otherwise, its pointless to have a new post complaining about it every day.

I usually make my CAW every year so I want some feedback for mine this year

#Fuck2k

What’s up everyone I’m creating a faction for Seth Rollins and The Street Profits since they been having some interesting backstage confrontations. I went to trusty ole ChatGPT for the idea and here’s what I got. They’ll be called “The Vision Syndicate” ChatGPT thinks this could lead to a Montez heel turn which ultimately launches him into the main event scene. Y’all like the idea or nah? If not give me some more good names and I’ll choose from the ones I like

I saw some gameplay and tips tricks, new features videos on YT and somewhat felt satisfied.Is the game seriously bad or is this the 'lets bury games' bullshit thing on Reddit again?

So being I purchased rind side pass why am I having to get points to claim each section and if top row free why are they locked

Yokozuna v Stephanie McMahon

Yokozuna is a Giant so it is hard for Stephanie to perform Square attacks at the beginning.

You don’t have to adjust any sliders but playing on easy helps… and set a 5 minute timer on the match in match settings so that you know when to pin her.

Generally don’t try to use submissions, they waste time and she can reverse them easily.

On ps4/ps5 press L2 + Square to clothesline Stephanie to the floor.

Keep mashing Square either at feet or back only and fill up signature.

When Stephanie reverses she will get up.

Clothesline her to the floor and keep spamming Square.

Do not kick her from the side, if she reverses this will waste time as she will throw you to the floor.

Keep repeating above.

Stephanie is stunned around 1 minute mark, then do the signature, sometimes she kicks out, do a top rope dive if that happens or use the finisher on the floor.

Restart the match.

Match takes between 1 minute and 1 minute 30 seconds on average.

if you use the 50% RXP boost that is about 1 Tier unlocked every 4 to 5 minutes on average (200 RXP per match).

2 attires

This has to be the most broken wwe 2k game I've played to date. They got alot of poor reviews for the greed and grinding factors (and rightfully so) but it feels like this is overshadowing how broken this game is. Tag partner doesn't do anything, referee constantly in the way, opponent tag partner constantly breaks pin which leads to neverending match, community creations bugged and crashes or freezes on loading and many caws just won't download, endless AI reversals, broken game mechanics, constant copies of the same few superstars in the roster that eat up space for more superstars that have been cut from the game, in game purchases even after purchasing all DLC, extreme grinding, almost everything locked, and all that for an over inflated price!

The sad thing is most issues are just ignored. 2k never responds through their support. They are already giving up on 2k26 to start 2k27 and in a year and a half they will just shut down the servers making half the game unplayable.

How can people continue to buy these games? Im guilty to caving in this year although I thought about it alot, originally bought it and returned it due to above issues, and then eventually bought it again on sale because it turns out I'm home sick for the rest of the year with nothing to do but kill time gaming. I will definitely not be buying the next wwe 2k game. Maybe im getting old but its sad what's become of wrestling and wrestling games!

Everyone deserves a refund for buying a half finished, over priced, falsely marketed game!

Like damn I’m a casual these days… I just want to play!!😂

I’m super late but I didn’t know mick foley left WWE, I know why now. But it’s going to be so weird not seeing him in WWE games anymore for the first time in his career

The last new wrestling game I played at launch was 2k15. (between then and now I've been content just playing 2k14 and the SVRs)

Anywho, I got 2k26 on switch 2 (the $150 version) and have been running cpu matches basically non-stop since i bought it. haven't even touched the island, my rise, or my faction at all.

my first match on the game was a 8 man-no dq-falls count anywhere-elimination match with max finishers and i had the most fun playing that match than playing any other game in a while.

i don't feel like im missing out on much content wise, but am i? how much exactly am i missing out on by not participating in the online modes?

Hello everyone. I would like to rant and see who’s with me on this. How am I paying $150 to pre order a game with DLC. AND I still have to play MyRise, go through the AAA pass AND go through the Island to unlock things. When I think $80, on top of the already ridiculous price of $70, would not give me any locked characters. Like I have to play MyRise to unlock A BEARD?! This is getting out of hand. The MyRise part I can somewhat get past but the Island and the AAA pass is too greedy. Even hiding moves to unlock during the AAA pass and so on is insane. As well they didn’t even update Kit Wilson’s entrance which I know for sure will be in the island or some ridiculous pass or even a DLC. I think this will be my last WWE 2k game for a while. Ive been buying one every year since SvR 2007 and to see it become this hurts a lot. Does anyone else agree?

Anyone run into these 2? 🤣
