10 Wrestlers Who Were Cut From Video Games

10. WWE 2K15 - Trish Stratus

WWE 2K15 is best remembered for its commitment to an increasingly accurate portrayal of professional wrestling's in-ring action. This was accomplished by introducing a chain-grappling system and a stamina metre, both of which slowed the action down to a more laborious yet lifelike pace, distancing itself from previous arcade/beat-em-up-style titles.

One area where 2K15 is severely lacking is in its women's roster. While 2K continued with the tradition of including legends, the only woman featured was Sensational Sherri as a non-playable manager. Though 2K failed to include any of wrestling's legendary women such as Chyna, Lita, and Luna Vachon, one playable female legend made the initial roster lineup; one of, if not the, biggest legends in women's wrestling, Trish Stratus.

Evidence of Stratus' inclusion in 2K15 can be found in the addition of her entrance theme in the game's European version and also Michael Cole makes reference to her via dialogue. It is unknown why Stratus was cut. However, within the yearly release cycle of 2K wrestling titles, a predominant priority is to update last years entry to better reflect the product that fans see on screen. An up-to-date roster is key to this.
