6. Early Defectors?

The name Bryan Williams might not ring many bells.

Mr. Williams is an important figure in pro wrestling video games though. He was a senior game designer for THQ when they worked alongside Yuke's on WWE titles, and he's credited with helping to redesign the creation suite that 2K eventually modelled into Community Creations.

Now, as recently reported, Bryan has left Yuke’s behind to rejoin the WWE side and work with 2K on their upcoming games. In other words, he decided that AEW's Fight Forever game wasn't the be all and end all - 2K is where it's at, according to this dude, and he's 2K bound later this month.

The most worrying thing about this for AEW is that Williams was such a key member of Yuke's team. The fact he's elected to ditch Fight Forever in favour of WWE 2K is alarming, because it suggests that everything is disorganised behind the scenes.
