3. Aleister Black

I know, he's going to be in a DLC, isn't he? WWE know this is going to be the breakout star of the next year so 2K are teasing us by putting him behind a paywall, if you will... they're cruel mistresses, aren't they?

Aleister Black is destined for greatness in WWE unless of course the powers that be that run WWE's main roster make an absolute mess of him like they have with so many other fantastic acts from NXT's recent past.

I hate DLC packs. I hate paying more money for content that should have been in a game in the first place. Why can't we go back to having unlockables and... that's a discussion for another time, but ALEISTER BLACK SHOULD BE IN WWE 2K18'S BASIC ROSTER!

His debut vignettes started airing on March 8, he made his in-ring debut the night before WrestleMania XXXIII at TakeOver Orlando, and he's even appeared on a main roster show in his match against Curt Hawkins on Main Event. If that doesn't qualify him I don't know what does?!

While Black hasn't really done anything of note in NXT as of yet it's clear he's not too far away from doing so. What's also clear is the fact that he's already garnered quite a following despite doing nothing of note. Being this popular this early should have seen him onto the game's basic roster. Surely WWE and 2K must know that a modicum of negative PR is headed their way once he's inevitably announced as part of one of the DLCs?
