WWE 2K18: Everything Revealed So Far

1. It Might Set Up Angle Vs Rollins In Real Life

During the press conference, Kurt Angle called out Seth Rollins for his respectful treatment of WWE history in the announce trailer, suggesting that he might be looking for revenge...

Let’s be clear though. I have a small bone to pick with Seth Rollins. You obviously saw the announcement trailer. Seth broke into the WWE Archives and disrespected history. Up in flames went the memories of many incredible WWE Legends and Hall of Famers, who have come before him. Guys like Andre the Giant, The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase, Ric Flair, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Undertaker, and many more. All I can say for now is just wait and see the pre-order announcement for the game, revenge may be on my mind.

Given that Goldberg's position as the pre-order bonus last year led to a Tv storyline with Brock Lesnar, it wouldn't be too silly to believe that the same could happen for Angle and Rollins. And that would be some way of bringing Angle back to the ring.

Angle actually acknolwedged the relationship the game has with television storylines, almost as a qualifier:

As many of you are well aware, WWE’s video games with 2K play a huge role in the world of WWE each year. With WWE 2K18 being no exception when it releases worldwide on Oct. 17.

There's a chance this will just be part of the pre-order marketing, but the precedent is absolutely there for this feud to spill out into the real WWE world.
