Apparently they blurred the refs' faces in the archive videos in Showcase mode?

Always have/always do. if they did 2K would have to enter into an agreement with the referee to use them, and they don't. They also blur any logos on fans clothing. There's a guy in a New York Mets jersey at a ton of shows and they blur that shit out too. It's easier to blur out those things than it is for 2K to find the ref and pay him individually. WWE doesn't need to do that as it is part of the refs agreement when he worked for the company, but 2K isn't part of that.

So they did that in 2K22? I don't remember, but I didn't play a lot.

Yeah they did it in the 2K22 one, as well as 2K20. Here's a video of the cuscenes. They blury out the refs that are not employed by WWE at the time of release. They did show the refs if they were employed by the company at the time of release.


2K22 not just had to censor refs but portions of the WCW ring cause of the Slim Jim logos

Fnac sent me a PS store wallet voucher to apologize for the lack of DLC code in my RE4 edition, so I got the game on sale.
Starting with MyRise / The Lock now that I have muted almost all the tracks in the jukebox.

It's weird how they gave some wrestlers their most recent songs, such as Butch or the Viking Raiders, but Dana Brooke uses Respectful in the game. She's had a new theme song for 2 years now.

I did the same thing. Swapped out about 90% of the soundtrack and put on the entrance themes.

I'm not complaining. I like that song. Also I never noticed because I didn't realize Dana Brooke has a new song. Probably because she never gets to play it.

She started using during the pandemic when she was on TV quite often with Mandy to be fair.





As for the jukebox, I only left the BFMV and Metallica tracks.

So on MyRise I was teaming with Liv Morgan.....and I was going to do a suicide dive with her and my stupid AI started stomping the girl on the outside......I hate The Lock.

Also, play as Hollywood Hogan and win titles, you'll see him throw women refs and black refs out of the ring violently.

Not a fan of having to sign up to get DLC I already bought and paid for.

Didn't even pony up for the WCW Steinerline song smfh.

I unmuted that one from the jukebox, I thought it was some electro/hiphop garbage when I heard the first notes but turns out it's a banger

And now I know why I didn't remember the song. it's entirely forgettable.

Anxiously waiting for the next DLC pack so I can start up my universe mode. I had a really good time with universe in 2k19, never got into it in 2k22 because tag finishers were broken and I couldn't customize it the way I wanted. No promo slots is gonna hurt my immersion though. Really hope next game has full customization of promos, let us write them if we want, pick exactly what happens.

Shelton and Mia have the greatest feud in wrestling. Also very excited they're adding Mia with the next patch, that'll save me a caw slot. Now they need to add Candice since she was added to the files the same time as Mia.
