10 Completely UNHINGED Moments From WWE Video Games
10. Matt Hardy Takes You To His Multiverse (WWE 2K19)
More jokes incoming, because it seems Matt Hardy might've taken the team who worked on 2K20 to his multiverse and left them there. Before the proverbial hit the fan and the series needed a hard reset (praise be to 2K22 for establishing a new standard), WWE 2K19 brought the weird to fans via MyCareer. It was some buzz for your character... Buzz.
In the story, your made-up grappler needs a counterpoint to combat Bray Wyatt's twisted mind games, so he trusts Matt's 'Broken' gimmick and visits said multiverse. That was his first mistake. What ensues is a cartoonish collection of insane cutscenes, but they'd be nothing without Hardy putting his all into the voiceover performance. Someone must've given that dude caffeine and sugar before hitting the recording booth.
He was on fire.
You'd be forgiven for wondering why any of this was necessary, but why not? 2K had been getting a wee bit of stick from gamers for keeping things mild in more recent entries to the franchise. So, they decided to go all out bizarre and whisk players off to a dreamland inspired by Matt's alter ego.
