Maven is not a one-time video roster member!!!! He is EVERY default create-a-character
i know its a joke (a stupid one at that) but he only was in one game
Did Maven say he did the motions for those?
@@marcohavokkhaos no
@@mattalan6618Nah the joke is funny and works.
@@mattalan6618 Ladies and gentlemen, we found the one Big Fan of Mavens work
Jimmy Wang Yang in SvR09
Damian “Lillyard” lol
I legit had no idea who he was talking about until he said nba Player then i realized Damian Lillard 😂
He must not be a big NBA fan.
I lol'd at that too 😂
@@Daniel-jz9oi i legit had no idea who he was talking about even after he was saying nba player
How long ago was this video recorded? Cuz both George Steele and Sandman are slated for 2K24. Steele is part of the 40 Years of Mania DLC and Sandman is part of the ECW/CM Punk DLC.
George "The Animal" Steele is off this list now because he's in WWE 2K24
Same with sandman
@SupRNightmare Yup, I forgot he was a DLC
Just wanna clarify it's wrestlmania 19 and not day of reckoning with the mode where you throw people off buildings for anybody wantin to play
Matt Damon luckily has been in every game since the NES days. Rage in the Cage was his best appearance.
Anybody remember when Michael Cole was a playable character on SmackDown: Know Your Role?
He was a playable charter in like 2k12 as well
Hes also playable in No Mercy
And Smackdown 2.
Also a secret playable character in HCTP in the story mode at some point
@@cqmorrellsmackdown 2 is Smackdown know your role
George Steele is in 2k24…
😆
Simon said at the beginning that 2k24 isn't considered
@@zhiamako That’s referring to if their first appearance was 2K24, but would still count toward their total.
He said in the beginning 2k24 is not included in this video
@@user-ck5yr1pp3oSimon meant that anybody who made their first appearance in 24 wouldn’t be included. Cause they could be included in next years
Can non-Mexicans please stop telling us what us Mexicans are supposed to find offensive? The Mexi-cools were cool. We found the lawnmowers funny. Same with the early Eddie/Chavo gimmick of being criminals. We didn't find it offensive either.
Agreed
Just to clarify... This is just console videogames, right? Cause Orndorff, Steele, Cowboy Bob Orton, Stevie Ray, Mr T and Ezekiel are part of WWE Champions, a mobile game for IOS and Android
Don't think Mobile games count
Paul Orndorf was in one of the 2k games
Pretty sure he wasn’t; other than Legends of Wrestling I don’t remember him in any other games
i thought this may have been one of the SD V Raw games - maybe the one where the legends actually featured in the storyline - but apparently not
Luna really needs more…a true legend
WWE always disrespected her
Laughing at THQ going bankrupt and people losing their jobs seems so oddly out of place and rather mean.
Sean O'Haire and Rob Conway were both guys that could've been world champions.
Wasnt Ultimo Dragon on WCW/nWo Revenge? Are they only including WWE games?
Yeah, only the WWE games because Stevie Ray was also in WCW/nWo Revenge as well.
13:26 That's an interesting way of saying Isaiah 😂
you forgot Zeus in 2k23
I dont know if he's in 2k24
@@JoaoGabriel-th4xy he’s not in 2k24….
mr t
What about lio Rush in wwe 2k19?
5:20. That was Revenge Mode in WrestleMania XIX. DoR2 had a proper season mode.
You think they actually play the games? lol.
@@Xilekai It doesn't hurt to do your research when you make a video like this.
Are we counting the Mean Street Posse and Mideon’s appearances as hidden create a characters in No Mercy and Smackdown respectively as appearances ? Because they’ve only actually been featured once
I thought the Mean Street Posse were in two games...
Blue Meanie too.
As a Mexican the mexicools wasn’t that bad I liked them I was a kid at the time tho n now I could see that it’s a bit racist but idk I still don’t have a problem with it I liked the gimmick n the theme song was the shit lol
It’s weird cuz as a black guy I feel the same about some acts. I think it’s really about the performer and if it seems genuine to them or not. The mexicools feel a lot like r-truths early days for me, if anyone else was doing it I probably would have thought it was a racist stereotype but it felt so real you just have to love it because it’s really them. For some reason the mexicools always felt like guys you might know which really helped them
Wrestle Gamia, The 101 & Smack Talks have covered this before. But having the commentary of the great Simon, makes it better.
3:20 That's Earl Hebner there! He has definitely been in more than one game, although I'm not sure he was playable in all of them.
I am sure this is for playable
Fantastic edit, teem..
In all the WWE Games that features overall stats, After Roman Reigns' record breaking 99 OVR in 2K23 surpassing Undertakers highest ever rating of 98 twice in SvR 2008 and 2011, there are only 3 superstars who have ever featured a 97 overall in any game. Stone Cold, John Cena and The Rock.
I was going to say Fred Durst but he was in two. He was included as a playable wrestler in WWF Smackdown! Just Bring It and WWF Raw as an unlockable character.
He really did just keep on rollin' rollin' rollin'...
I'm pretty sure Lilard was included as a promotional bundle for NBA 2K21(was the cover star for the standard edition kobe for Legends) and Battlegrounds for like $39.99
At least older games included everyone or basically everyone but nowadays the 2K games say they have a big roster and yeah it is but there are still so many stars missing from the 2K games it just doesn't make sense
Unpopular opinion: Pirate Paul Burchill should have been WWE champion.
Fred Durst was in more than one Smackdown game?
As soon as I saw the title of this video Fred was the first guy who came to mind so I was a little disappointed when he wasn't on the list!
@@elduderino1287 he's in WWF Raw too
@@seanmcmahon5680 Ah ok I didn't know that.
It was his way
I didn't know that either. Crazy
George Steele is back in 2K24
Don’t get why The Fink has been blurred and even dubbed out of 2K24, surely the WWE don’t need to request that…
Have to imagine WWE only ever uses people with Legends deals, which presumably Finkel didn’t have prior to his passing. They could work with his estate if one exists I suppose, but at that point you’ve got multiple legal teams playing e-Mail and phone tag for what is ultimately 5 total minutes of audio and video.
My copy of Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 is signed by David "Kid" Kash who I met in a small time local independent comic book store in my small-ish home town in Cornwall, England.
George Steele is back yo
"Number 50: George "The Animal" Steele" "Number 32: The Sandman" You had ONE JOB
Kharma aka Awesome Kong from TNA appeared in two WWE games in a row despite having such limited screen time during her ‘10-13 run with the company where her only match appearance being the 2012 Royal Rumble Also Maven was supposed to appear in SVR 2006 but he removed before the game’s release. A pre-release beta of the game was uncovered where his model was discovered
Nice 1. Sounds like it was recorded awhile ago. Anyway...I figured you would have shown more love to Vito. He was enhancement talwnt for years. Then worked all three top feds with solid undercard gimmicks.
Demolition was in WrestleFest too.
One thing you got wrong, Ezekiel is actually Elias’ brother. They’re not the same person, so totally acceptable pop quiz answer.
More of this is wrong than right. I'm 4 minutes in and immediately think of a 2nd game for half the wrestlers mentioned. It even shows the selection menu for the wrong game for WWF Wrestlemania in 1991. Not enough research was done here.
Attitude had the chicken song. Greatest non-wrestler theme ever
It's crazy to think that Fred Durdst has been in more WWE games than all on this list.
I thought this would've been much longer than 16 minutes since every WWE/F video game is covered 😳.
He missed some wrestlers. But considering how many games wwe has, it’s not surprising
George The animal steals in 2K 24 but before that I guess he wasn't another game.
He doesn't count 2k24 in the video and he was in Smackdown HCTP
@@devinjones6670 yeah if you count to 2k24 he is in the showcase.
Luna's in-game character sprite looked more like Dog The Bounty Hunter....good ol early 90s graphics.
Me and my friends use to play WWE day of reckoning 2 a ton and we would always randomize the computer for multi person matches and 9 times out of 10 it would land on Kenzo suzuki
Actually George Steele appeared in this year's game so he shouldn't be on this list
he said he wasn't counting this year's game
@@devinjones6670 I think he meant for those who are making their debut in this year's game
George Steel is in wwe2k24 3:50
I'm guessing this is about their inclusions as proper wrestleable characters not not just "appearing in the game"? Because Earl Hebner was the ref in Here Comes The Pain and Fink was the announcer in the retro portions of WWE 2k14 at the very least.
This is actually a good idea for a video
At this point and time I would say any controversies on Moolah are moot given its been decades and since she passed away. On top of some of the good she brought, like in terms of who she brought into the business, and jist her accomplishments.
Sabu was also in Legends of Wrestling
Legends of Wrestling isn't a WWE game.
Marc Merro is doing great things now
No Mercy was a great game I remember when it came out I played it all the time
Actually Paul orndorff appears in another wwe game. Wwe champions the mobile phone game. He appears as a technician defensive class as Paul orndorff “Mr wonderful”
SANDMAN IS GONNA BE IN THE WWE 2K24 DLC
He wasn't counting this year's game
I could have sworn Maven was in the GameCube wrestling games as well. If we’re being that guy 🤓 Marc Mero was Johnny B Badd in WCW Superbrawl on SNES as well.
Dame Lillard is a huge wrestling fan. I think he even has custom Ric Flair and Steve Austin colors for his signature shoe
Oh man I know its not technically WWE But I remember always using Justin Credible in the ECW game on N64. For some reason I always picked him for some reason didnt even know who he was back then I was like 4-5 years old lmao good times. what a throwback!
Earl Hebner technically is in Smackdown 1 & 2 innthe creste a superstar mode. Also Linda McMahon is Smackdown Shut Your Mouth in season mode.
The sandman is also in 2K24 fun fact I have heard Mike Tyson almost didn't make it in because it was supposed to be money Mayweather but because he wanted too much money they went ahead and just simply put Tyson
I immediately thought of Vito in SVR 2007 and Vance Archer in SVR 2011.
Who owns the license to Luna Vachone currently? Like who would they have to talk to in order to try and do anything with her character? I assume its just the Vachon family? Maybe Gangrel too?
Either her mother or her two sons. Joshua and Van Hurd. I do know Van is on social media.
The Just Look At Me, The Conman Rob Conway is the most underrated gimmick ever. Fight me
It was for me.. I'm the biggest MGK fan ever 😂🔥 the fact that he has an airplane spin powerbomb as a finish is crazy
Glorious
You forgot "You" in WWF Wrestlemania Challenge, the original career mode. LOL
I believe Mason Ryan was also in one of the day of reckoning games on gamecube.
George Steele is in 2k24. You could've included that game as all the dlc has already been announced
if we're going off gimicks since you included Ezekiel then we also need to include Husky Harris who was only in wwe 12
Kurrgan watch me dance
So a list like this just makes me wonder. If the people who want EVERYONE in a wrestling game ever got their way and 100% of the wrestlers. managers, valets, and refs from WWE, WCW, ECW, NXT, FCW, OVW were added to one game. How massive would that roster be?
Mr.t was in the DS version of wwe smack down vs raw 2010
I'm pretty sure Dr. Death Steve Williams and Ultimo Dragon were in WCW Vs The World, just with different names.
Jimmy hart & sandman are dlc in the newest game & George Steel is on the base roster
You forgot Joey mercury his only appearance was svr 2007
As of this video, WWE 2K24 is the only game to feature Indus Sher's Sanga. Mentions goes to Aliyah and Shanky.
To be fair Jaxson Ryker didn't do really anything wrong.
Truth.
Dr. Death Steve Williams was in that WCW game that was a reskin of a Japanese wrestling game.
Demolition Ax also appeared the iconic WWF arcade game Wrestlefest!
That was Smash and Crush
Whats up with this weird tone this dude is presenting this in? I swear he used to sound normal back in the day
I had WrestleMania XIX
Head as a playable Character in WWF Attitude lol
Do Red and Green (SVR 2010) count?
yes
Fred Durst in one of the older smackdown games
Taking Cultaholic's AI-produced videos into account, I reckon SmackDown! Vs. RAW 2006 might be where Sylvan Grenier has been trapped all these years. I hope Rene Dupree saves him eventually.
Actually Demolition were also in WWF Wrestlefest.
Yeah I came here to say the same thing
Fred Durst in SmackDown Just Bring It
We saw why we don't see much of Aries anymore at BFG 2018...
Pete Gas, Rodney & Joey Abs in Smackdown 2
With this whole new era in WWE, the Ezekiel stuff seems like ages ago.
😮 day of reckoning was amazing fo the GameCube
Graves is the best commentator in WWE
I know he said is not including 2K24 because i does not know what they do in the futur but george steele is in the base game
Mania 19 was crazy. You can tear apart the hell in a cell and beat someone up with it.
Not to mention the revenge mode
MGK was also thrown through a table by Kevin Owens.
Apologies if someone's already said this, but wasn't Jerry Lynn in Smackdown Just Bring it on PS2?
Yes, he is. He's one of the unlockable characters in Season Mode.
What name of your theme
Earl Hebner was in Smackdown SYM
