3. Chyna

It's shocking to realise that Chyna hasn't been in a wrestling video game since 2000's WWF SmackDown 2: Know Your Role hit shelves. For one of the most iconic female wrestlers of all time, that's disappointing, but Chyna's personal problems with top WWE personalities like Triple H and Stephanie McMahon provide a reason at least.

Having since passed away in 2016, any pre-existing bad blood should have been washed away by now. Fans shouldn't be suffering because of any issues anyway, and Chyna is therefore a fine choice to join Beth Phoenix as another strong female characters in WWE 2K18.

Inclusion in 2K18 could feed nicely into a proposed WWE Hall Of Fame 2018 induction also. That's something the wrestling world has been shouting about for years now, and Triple H did say during several interviews after Chyna's death that she was worthy of being honoured.

At the same time though, 'The Game' has previously noted WWE's problem with the idea of children Google searching Chyna only to find pornography. Still, kicking ass with Chyna in a WWE video game would be a great selling point for the title, simultaneously making up for years of estrangement between talent and promotion despite WWE's own reservations.
