    Kai is such a great heel. The night and day difference between her character and her real personality is just a wonderful blend.

    I love how Big E and Woods still call Seth “Captain”. In 2015 when Seth and the New Day almost got together was some of my favorite segments.

    Never thought I would be so happy to see someone nod and move their head so much, so happy E is doing well and we all wish you a speedy recovery big man!

    Man Big E sounding well and healthy must be the best thing I've seen so far in 2023. Hope he's returning soon to the ring.

    Well, I hope this means the gameplay for WarGames will actually be smooth. I also hope this wasn’t the only match they added/improved.

    • ean meade
      ean meade 20 days ago

      On next gen I think it’s bound to be smooth at least we can hope

    • dakliq420
      dakliq420 Month ago

      @RebelWithoutACaws well they've been running the same match types in real life. What else y'all want? A street fight is basically a no holds barred match anyway. Players rarely ever used Lumberjack matches,the buried alive match was whatever. I wouldn't mind the inferno match though.

    • Ishmael
      Ishmael Month ago

      @RebelWithoutACaws inferno match sucks you just roll a guy in fire buried alive oky could be brought back, street fight is just a no DQ match and a backstage brawl. Lumber jack is just a singles match with a manager. I can agree with a more free weapons use to be creative like stacking tables. Other then that it's a small list besides just improving existing matches without adding a match that just makes no sense to have it in a game like a lumber jack match, like I said whats the point in having a lumber jack match when you can just be in the match itself or add a manager to be a ringside with you. The only one that makes sense here is buried alive or even casket match or maybe even ambulance match

    • RebelWithoutACaws
      RebelWithoutACaws Month ago

      @Ishmael the I quit match. Buried alive. Inferno match. Better backstage arena. Fight pit. Street fight. Lumberjack. Etc. look at the older games. They had way more match types than what we have now. Also more weapons and the option to stack tables.

    • Ishmael
      Ishmael Month ago

      @Matt rice I remember when I wanted more people in the ring at one time for the rumble and they gave that to us and now it's another thing lol but to be honest as for match types what other match types are worthy to be in this game wrestling especially in wwe has always just been tag matches TLC MATCHES, steel cage, royal rumble, hell in a cell, elimination chamber, handicap matches, I quit matches, table matches, backstage brawls, that one could be improved, 2k22 pretty much has all this, so idk what people mean by I hope they add more match types, like what's missing that I haven't seen on wwe programming

    I hope the collision detection is as improved as it looks. Though nothing will beat Day of Reckoning's interruptable moves

    This WWE2K23 Preview Episode on UUDD WAS AWESOME!!!! Really love and enjoy watching the gang play at WARGAMES and I do love the style for the stage especially with the sirens effect, I totally love the part when everyone compares it to the Purge and say the Purge's Legal Crime rules in WWE style, that was so priceless and good lol!!!! And I also was laughing so hard when Xavier & Big E jumped Cody Rhodes in the beginning of the match, I was laughing saying "OMG" during that, ah classic New Day lol- I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!!! Looking forward to the next preview episode!!!

    being a NWA/WCW guy, to have this in the game and being able to use & create legends of back then, i can easily relive/replay the Dangerous Alliance v Stings Squadron
    lol Dakota has been the longest in all the War Games, but, she has also got the most beaten up spots. I hope this was therapeutic at least for her

    I was never really of Kai until last years War Games I think she was the glue that held that entire match together and she definitely took the most damage too and my entire outlook on her changed

    Kofi and Xavier stomp stunlocking Dakota/Cody for almost a minute straight is funny as hell. I'm surprised they left in the Shayna AI bugging out in the video, though - figured they'd cut around the jank considering this is WWE's official account.

    Rudebwoytroy Month ago

    as for the pumps and the tech, sidney crosbys cross trainers from 2008 had the pum on the outside of the heel and had a knob for pump or deflate. you turn the knob to lock then pump the small pump and unlock to decompress the air... they can take that and put it back to the tongue

    This reminds of when my friends in high school played 2k14 6 man hell in the cell. We thought Rey and Yokozuna picking up the steal stairs and running up the ramp was the funniest thing ever and we couldn’t stop laughing.

    Will we get 4 on 4 War Games? All I'm seeing in most footage is 3 on 3. Can they not do 4 on 4 with two rings because of some technical issue? I was so hoping for 4 on 4.

  • Emerie The Greatest of All Time

    It looks good but they need to fix the animation speed like 2K14. It's too smooth
    Everyone moves like heavyweights
    We need a fluid gameplay like Here comes the pain, SvR'06 & SvR'11
    Definitely need a double championship entrances & Story designer with new & some old cutscenes
    Thx y'all for being the 1st to review some gameplay
