The official announcement video showed factions of Drew McIntyre, The Miz, M.V.P., and Apollo Crews, as well as The Mysterios (Rey and Dominik), Dolph Ziggler, and Kevin Owens. It appears that MyFaction groups are limited to four people, but having the option for a three-person faction like The New Day or The Shield would be a great tweak. Simply put, MyFaction mode allows you to assemble a four-person faction of assembled wrestlers to your liking, presumably for use in Universe Mode and Exhibition.

It seems the self-promo is the most cost-effective, but lacking any further information on the types of promos available makes this an educated guess. Promos will also cost money, regardless of the type. Generally, any multi-person match, like a triple threat or fatal four-way, will be considered normal unless a stipulation is added – such as No Disqualification, TLC, or a Cage Match. The opening segment – a TLC match between Tamina and Bianca Belair – cost $5,000.įrom this, it can be deduced that any regular match – be it singles, tag, or six-person – will cost zero dollars, but any gimmick matches will cost money. For example, in the above image, a standard main event singles match between Roman Reigns and Big E and a mid-card match between Samoa Joe and Joaquin Wilde cost zero dollars, but the two self-promos from Tyler Bate and Montez Ford cost $1,000 each. It appears that you’ll have a budget per show and that each segment can cost anywhere between zero and thousands of dollars. They have a salary commensurate with their placement on the card – upper-card and champion wrestlers are going to cost far more than a lower-card or developing wrestler. Each wrestler also has a Class associated with them, as well as a face (green) or heel (red) designation under their Role. In WWE 2K22, it appears as though the fantasy draft is still an option. You were also given a budget for drafting purposes, as well as the ability to sign free agents – sometimes legends. You were able to either conduct a fantasy draft or proceed with the pre-loaded rosters. The same match types and same feuds started drawing less and less – much like in real life – and gimmick matches worked better as feud enders than randomly placed on a weekly show with little or a non-existent story build. The mode was more challenging and required more nuance than at first glance. You oversaw the booking of everything – feuds, matches, promos, match types, and more. GM Mode pitted you as the General Manager of either Raw or SmackDown – your choice – against the GM of the other show to draw more viewers over the course of a calendar year, ending with WrestleMania. Long clamored for by the WWE gaming audience, WWE wrestler Xavier Woods even ran three seasons of “Battle of the Brands” GM Mode from the 2006 edition on his UpUpDownDown gaming channel, garnering hundreds of thousands of views per episode.

This made them the first father-son duo to win a Tag Team Championship in WWE history. He actually won a Tag Team Championship with his son, Dominik, in May of 2021. If they journey back to Mysterio’s pre-WWE days – as they did in previous Showcases like with Steve Austin – then there is the possibility of playing some of Mysterio’s matches in WCW and ECW.Īs Mysterio is still an active wrestler, the cutoff point for the end of his Showcase is debatable. It will be interesting to see if some of those “giants” and “monsters” that Mysterio fought in his past – like The Big Show and Mark Henry – are included as both (and others) are now part of AEW – the direct competition to WWE. From the teaser, he stated that: “ With a universe populated by monsters, giants, and larger-than-life beings, I was determined to find my own path to the top of the mountain in sports entertainment.” This means that it is likely that you’ll relive his battles with the likes of Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, and John Cena, among others.
