7 Things We Learned From AEW’s Fight Forever Reveal

4. The Roster’s Size

Here's one from Fightful Select.

According to the site, Fight Forever's roster will be 50 wrestlers strong, or therein thereabouts. That, rather sadly, means some heavy hitters from the real-life locker room could be left on the bench. AEW's reveal didn't have much word on this subject, but it seems pretty obvious who won't be omitted.

AEW World Champ Hangman Page is a shoe-in, and so (surely) are top stars like CM Punk, MJF and more. Then, there are older workers like Sting - he's someone gamers will be expecting to have on-disc, so it'd be hugely annoying if he wasn't included. That, naturally, means someone else will have to miss out though.

WWE 2K22 has approx 200 wrestlers when one takes upcoming DLC into account. The sweet Community Creations tab also allows players to add to that figure by downloading picture-perfect CAWs. Fight Forever might find it difficult to compete here, by the looks of things.
