#TRUMP #MAGA
There have been some memorable celebritycameos in the WWEover the years, but few are quite as iconic as Donald Trump’s. Following a short but brutal feud with Vince McMahon, Trump ended up shaving his rival’s head in the center of the ring at WrestleMania 23. Now, thanks to creator RealAlphaDrum,WWE 2K22players can reignite that bitter rivalry with this fantastic custom-created Trump.
#NonWrestler #JoeBiden #Liberal
Vince McMahon isn’t the only person with whom Trump has shared abitter rivalry. Just ask Joe Biden. Like his former political punching bag, the current President can also be downloaded inWWE 2K22, allowing players to indulge in a presidential punchout of sorts. Whether or not the man himself would be too thrilled by this idea is debatable, though it does seem safe to assume that he wouldn’t be too pleased with creator SKYFALLHUNTER using Trump’s “Sleepy Joe” nickname.

#MikeTyson #Famous #DefJam
While onthe subject of punchouts, Mike Tyson is one of several current and former boxers who have been created inWWE 2K22. Just as in real-life, Iron Mike can pack quite the punch, and looks fantastic to boot thanks to the care and attention put into his design by creator FighterBigBootTV.
#nba #NonWrestler #HallOfFamer
Though boxers and MMA fighters are perhaps the most likely of sports stars to be created inWWE 2K22, they’re far from the only ones. There are plenty of football and basketball players in the game already, the best of which is perhaps SwissManagerENG’s custom Lebron James. This isn’t the first time that LeBron has appeared in a non-basketball video game though, with the living legend having also beenadded intoFortnitelast year.

Danny DeVito has played many iconic charactersover the years, but few are quite as compelling as Frank Reynolds fromIt’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The foul-mouthed financer has had plenty of memorable moments during his time on the show, one of which saw him try his hand at wrestling under the Trashman alias. That particular escapadedidn’t end too well for Cricket, but, thanks to creator SuperBob, The Trashman lives on to fight another day.

#snoop #rap #celebrity
Few celebrities are as quite likable as Snoop Dogg, the rapper, streamer, and FaZe Clan member.Snoop has appeared in plenty of video game franchises over the years, includingMadden,Tekken, andCall of Duty. This is his first time appearing in aWWE 2Kgame, although he does have some in-ring experience having famously speared Chavo Guerrero on an episode of Raw back in 2009. This incident may have been what inspired CruiserOutsiderMAX to create the rapper inWWE 2K22, though he could just as easily love rap.

#loganpaul #themiz #wm38
From one of the most likable modern-day celebrities to one of the most detested; to say that Logan Paul is a controversial figure would be a bit of an understatement. Love him or loathe him though, he is incredibly popular within certain circles and has a strong connection with the WWE having competed in a tag-team match at WrestleMania 38. It was recently announced thatPaul will be added into the game officially as DLC, but, for those who just can’t wait to get started punching him, BruiserContenderMAX’s creation should come in handy.
#NonWrestler #TigerKing #TV
2020 was a terrible year, but there were a few saving graces. One of these wasTiger King; a documentary series with a cast of larger-than-life characters who were so captivating they felt more like fiction than fact. The star of the show wasthe self-styled Tiger King, Joe Exotic, who ended up going to prison after being convicted of a murder-for-hire plot. His attempts to secure a presidential pardon may have fallen flat, but Joe can take some solace in learning that he’s now a playable character inWWE 2K22, and it’s all thanks to creator WoweeLoverUK.
#AEW #FIEND #CODY
Most of MARCOANDTARMA’s creations inWWE 2K22arebased on superheroes and villains, but not all of them. Eminem is probably the most interesting celebrity that they’ve created so far, and one of many rappers that are now playable in the game. His signature blond hair may be hidden, but Em is still easily recognizable thanks to the strong facial resemblance.
#50cent #gunit #curtis
Eminem and 50 Cent have appeared in a few video games together already,the most notable being50 Cent: Bulletproof. Now though, thanks to the work of creator SONNYBLACKCCN, the pair can be reunited in the ring ofWWE 2K22. Fiddy really does look the part too, thanks in large to his elaborate gold chains and iconic headwear.
WWE 2K22is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
