2K Sports drew the ire of countless fans by not including NXT’s Four Horsewomen (Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, Charlotte, and Bayley) in last year’s release, but that looks set to be rectified in 2K17. Sasha Banks and Charlotte have already been announced, it’s hard to imagine that Becky isn’t right around the corner, and with a number of NXT characters set to appear again, Bayley feels like a dead cert too.

They’ll have a tough time capturing Becky’s high-energy steampunk-themed entrance, but Charlotte’s smug, methodical walk down should be straightforward enough. Where 2K are really going to struggle, however, is recreating the current WWE Women’s Champion’s ring entrance.

It’s tough to put Sasha Banks’ stage and ramp movements into words. Everything she does is punctuated by a supremely confident swagger, from her stage pose to the way she almost sways down to the ring, and it’s going to take some serious work for 2K to capture her unique hip movements and gesticulations.

You only need to do a quick YouTube search to understand how easy it is to make a mess of Sasha’s entrance using the creation suite. Here’s hoping 2K have the nous to successfully recreate The Boss’ entrance without falling towards unintentional comedy.
