10 Times Wrestling Video Games Broke The Fourth Wall

6. The Dirt Sheet (SmackDown Vs. Raw 2010)

If they're so inclined, 2K could recreate this scene from SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 in one of the upcoming games. Back in 2009, The Miz and John Morrison bemoan Vince McMahon's lack of focus on ECW (even THQ knew the Vin-man didn't give a damn about Extreme) and then rip into both World Champs on Raw and SmackDown.

Via their 'Dirt Sheet' segment, Miz and Morrison (hey hey, ho ho) blast John Cena. The best bit comes when they turn their attention to Triple H and Miz quips, "First off, only losers play games". OUCH! That gets referenced later in the story too when colour commentator Matt Striker brings it up during one of the matches.

Morrison's answer of, "It's true" is classic trolling from these boys. It's like THQ knew what would happen to their series once 2K irked Yuke's to the point that senior vice president and producer Hiromi Furuta decided to up sticks and leave for greener pastures.

It's your fault. Loser.
