Hmm… it’s weird, I still see Hogwarts in first place in this top 9.
I’ve completed The Lock MyRise campaign for WWE2k23 and a few of the showcase challenges, haven’t encountered any bugs or glitches and i started playing 3 days before the official release date because i pre-ordered the deluxe edition. The CAW creation has been revamped from previous years and the Wargames match type is legitimately alot of fun. I already know not to play WWE games online because of rage quitters and players who spam the same moves.
I can’t wait until they add The Dog Face Grimlen Rick Steiner and The Genetic Freak Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner.
Professional wrestling in the wizarding world is an untapped market.
Hogwarts Wizards, probably: “Don’t be such a fool. No great wizard would lose to a mere muggle invented “hand technique”.
John Cena: “Quiet, wizard boy. body slams the frail wizard
Hagrid: “Hol’ me umbrella.”
