This. Is. Essential.

Community Creations is a lifesaver for anybody who wants to squeeze as much as possible from WWE 2K22. Being able to download wrestlers, titles, arenas, logos and more from companies outside the WWE realm opens things up so much, and it's a joy to see what everyone has been crafting then download it at your leisure.

Yuke's and AEW Games should know that copying this formula is absolutely fine. There's no justifiable reason why the developers would want to stop players from experimenting as much as they can anyway - want to see what it'd be like to have mid-90s Eddie Guerrero up against MJF? Have at it.

Integrating a bunch of wrestlers from WWE, WCW, Impact, ROH, New Japan etc sounds like a great time. So, again, Yuke's shouldn't worry about any tut-tutting if they "borrow" Community Creations. It's too good a feature to leave there on the cutting room floor.
