Former WCW world champion Sting – himself a major attraction of WWE 2K in recent times – debuted in 2020 and is already confirmed for the video game. However, the hot newcomer can call upon some familiar veteran names, in addition to Jericho and the Hardyz. Yet while both FIFA 21 and PES 2021 offered the opportunity to play as Diego Maradona, Frank Rijkaard and Fernando Torres, there’s less-than-zero chance of The Rock or Steve Austin appearing in a TNA game.

Still, that half-century of muscle should pack in some serious talent. While that game features more than 200 grapplers to step into the ring with, AEW apparently is keeping its line-up down to 50. However, it’s strongly rumoured that the AEW Fight Forever roster won’t make any attempt to compete with WWE 2K22. Recent confirmations include Nyla Rose and Kris Statlander, whose Youtube unveiling you can see at the link above. Jericho was one of the first three wrestlers announced, alongside fellow main eventer Kenny Omega and long-time women’s champ Hikaru Shida. Former WWE favourites Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan), Chris Jericho and CM Punk are among them, but so too are AEW originals such as Darby Allin and Jungle Boy.

Yuke’s reputation slipped a little after control of the former Smackdown series passed from THQ to 2K. (Which infamously led to WWE 2K21 being cancelled.) Yuke’s has been synonymous with digitised powerbombs and spinebusters since the release of PS1 classic WWF Smackdown, again in 2000, and 2K’s decision to cut ties with the developer midway through the creation of WWE 2K20 is seen as the main reason for its downfall. It’s another Japanese studio renowned for its wrestling prowess which is overseeing AEW’s console debut. Fans responded with unrestrained glee: Syn Sophia is the current name of famed No Mercy developer AKI Corporation.

2000 N64 release WWE No Mercy is considered legendary in virtual wrestling circles, and when news of an AEW game broke in 2018, Japanese developer Syn Sophia was strongly linked to the project.
