AEW Fight Forever: 5 Things It Does Better Than WWE 2K23 (And 5 It Doesn’t!)
6. DOES: Blood
Fight Forever has buckets of blood.
Sure, WWE 2K23 features blood too, but not to the same degree. AEW's game is like a love letter to Jon Moxley; the Blackpool Combat Club man would be proud of how easy it is to splatter the canvas with a quite-disgusting amount of plasma. He's probably bleeding from the forehead just reading this!
Parents who don't fancy watching their kids carve up pro wrestlers and leaving them laying in a pool of the red stuff can always switch it off in the menus, but be warned: Eagle-eyed children will trawl through the options and switch it back on. They'll want some of that rebellious spirit kids in the early-1990s experienced with Mortal Kombat.
The amount of blood in AEW's game is rather intoxicating. It's unashamedly gratuitous, especially once the weapons come out. Thump someone enough times with a barbed wire baseball bat and the stuff will end up flying everywhere.
