WWE 2K15 Will Feature CM Punk in 2K Showcase

Re: WWE 2K15 Will Feature CM Punk in 2K Showcase

While I kinda understand hhh vs micheals, cm punk vs cena is in no way one the the greatest rivalries in wwe/wwf history. With all the rivalries they could have chosen, they picked that one.

Probably the best rivalry of the PG Era. Cena has been the biggest face, and Punk the best heel.

PWI says the agreement was in place for Punk to be in the game in this scenario months ago so they didn't take him out. Plus he's in the alumni section of WWE, so I doubt it means anything as far as him coming back or it all being a work. Although he could use the time off after his heavy use the last four years.

The whole HHH and HBK feud is awesome and all but benoit is the reason they were feuding.

They had been feuding for (at least) a year prior to that. Unless I'm way off in remembering the DX return swerve leading to SummerSlam?

I think they can get around Benoit pretty easily just because WM 20 was his moment, and not necessarily integral to the retelling of the Triple H-Shawn Michaels rivalry.

Per Wikipedia, HBK didn't return to TV from his injury hiatus until he joined the nWo on June 3 2002. Prior to that he last appeared on WWE programming via a televised speech at WWE Armageddon in 2000.

Punk/Cena is one of the best rivalries of recent years, that's why it's in the game over the other attitude era rivalries. Good to see two rivalries that aren't attitude era. Loved both of these rivalries when they were happening.

Pretty surprising, figured if they wanted to involve Cena they would have chosen Edge.

Nope, that was it. Triple H had been out injured and was thus a free agent. When he came back, the nWo made it clear they were trying to recruit him. After Captain Quad...I mean Nash got hurt Vince scrapped the group and Eric Bischoff stated his intention to follow through with the nWo's plan to get H to sign with RAW. Eventually Shawn convinced him to come to RAW with him to raise hell together again and of course the DX swerve happened. The next week, Triple H attacked Shawn from behind and put his head through a window and pretended like he had nothing to do with it, until Shawn got the security footage and saw Hunter did it. From there he challenged HHH to a fight at Summerslam.

Two things I'm really looking forward to with these feuds:

1) Getting to relive my favorite moment in professional wrestling history: when Shawn Michaels won the World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series 2002

and,

2) How they're going to recreate CM Punk and John Cena's entrances at Money in the Bank 2011. That should be interesting. I hope they use the audio from the actual event - at least the crowd reactions.

I also hope that means the return of This Fire Burns to the WWE games.

Please o' please add all the WM arenas with the base game (or atleast an arena/presentation DLC)!

Re: WWE 2K15 Will Feature CM Punk in 2K Showcase

2K15 to also include CM Punk chants during matches.

Is this gonna be the main feature?

No, there will also be a career mode and story mode.

Of all the rivalries they could have picked from in WWE history this just leaves something to be desired in my mind. These aren't bad rivalries just they had a chance for something big here and dropped the ball. As far as DLC any of the following would be awesome choices would be awesome additions (in no particular order).

1. Undertaker vs Mankind
2. Macho Man vs Jake the Snake
3. Stone Cold vs The Rock
4. Stone Cold vs Brett Hart
5. Hogan vs Macho Man
6. Undertaker vs Yokozuna
7. Ric Flair vs Randy Savage
8. Undertaker vs Kane
9. Harley Race vs Junkyard Dog
10. Hogan vs Piper
11. Austin vs McMahon
12. Brett Hart vs Shawn Michaels


And maybe throw in some tag team rivalries:
1. Hardy's vs Christian/Edge
2. R&R Express vs Midnight Express (not sure WWE holds the license for these)
3. Hart Foundation vs British Bulldogs
4. Hart Foundation vs Rockers
5. New Age Outlaws vs Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie
6. Bushwackers vs Nasty Boys (short lived but would love to see both of them in a game lol)

Mankind Vs Undertaker would be awesome! That Hell in a Cell match would be so epic to play.

I hope they have the 90's version of Shawn Michaels in there as well. That was my favorite superstar of all time from that era.
