10 New Details We Just Learned About AEW Fight Forever

A prominent gimmick of the WWE 2K series is the capacity to assign up to two Payback abilities to any Superstar. These include skills that can change the flow of a match, such as the Resiliency, Comeback, and Blackout abilities, as well as more crooked skills; these include the ability to low blow an adversary, blast them with a pair of brass knuckles, or spray green mist in their face.

These work excellently to add some flourish and swagger - so Yuke's is endorsing them, too.

The Dexterous Dervish, Finisher Thief, Smooth Footwork, and Nice Catch! achievements spotlight some of the abilities that will be on offer. As their names suggest, these skills cover the basis for utilising an effortless roll-through finish, stealing your opponent's finisher, kipping up from the mat, and catching a mid-flight opponent. Such eccentricities are sewn into the AEW roster and will be seen across AEW's weekly programming, some more often than others, so their inclusion was to be expected - and no, they haven't been poached from 2K. Inspired is a better choice of word.
