AEW Fight Forever: 5 Things It Does Better Than WWE 2K23 (And 5 It Doesn’t!)
10. DOES: Tag Team Wrestling
It's a pity there aren't many tag teams available in AEW's title at launch, because the doubles action THQ and Yuke's produced is sparkling. Everything shifts at just the right tempo - tag bouts aren't anywhere near as sluggish as they are over on WWE's side, put it that way.
Pulling off double team moves is also easier to do in Fight Forever, and there appears to be more emphasis on buddying up to inflict maximum damage before Aubrey Edwards or Rick Knox throws the illegal man/woman out. On that, it's pretty funny that AEW's refs are more on the ball in-game than they are in real life!
Interesting.
Seriously though, tag matches just feel...right in All Elite's new game. WWE 2K23 suffers from the age-old problem of that aforementioned sluggishness, and they're all a bit too formulaic. In Fight Forever, workers are on their toes and ready to help struggling partners. It's great.
