Admit it, the picture accompanying this entry will give you nightmares. Nobody should be clamouring for John Cena to hold every single title in WWE, but it's only a matter of time before Cena title hype goes into overdrive and the company start harping on about his impending 17th World Title victory.

Should that be set to happen around the time of 2K18's release, then there are worse ideas than ploughing through the previous 16. This would be more than a Cena career retrospective, because it'd be topical to things happening in today's WWE. Key matches against Triple H, Randy Orton, and Daniel Bryan merit exploration.

By keeping things focused and only looking at the 16 WWE/World Heavyweight Title wins to date, 2K would avoid some of the repetitive moments Showcases can be known for. There's no need to include throwaway matches on SmackDown, for example. Not when there are title wins to celebrate.
