Having got a glimpse of the Smoking Skull title in the Steve Austin 2K16 teaser trailer, fans are expecting at least some of reference in WWE 2K16. It could be something overt, like winning the belt as part of the rumoured Steve Austin game mode. Or it could be something much subtler, like spotting the belt in a cut scene background, or finding it under the ring when searching for a weapon. If the Smoking Skull title isn't in the game, there should at least be something Austin easter egg related for fans to uncover. He's the big star of the game and there's a ton of potential for nostalgia nods with his character.
