WWE 2K18 Wishlist: 11 Things It Must Include

7. More Match Types

895978

There are a ton of different match stipulations in WWE, and many of the most important are included in 2K17. Of course, there's the classic steel cage match, as well as the Royal Rumble, but there are other types of bouts that might be more difficult to replicate in a video game - such as ladder matches, TLC matches, Hell in a Cell, and even the infamous Elimination Chamber.

That said, there are still several kinds of bouts - less common ones, granted - that aren't included in the game. There are no casket matches or inferno matches or buried alive matches, nor is it possible to simulate a strap match or a stretcher match. Again, these don't really come up all that often in real life, but they'd be fun for a video game and they'd add interesting elements in career mode.

Some of the match options that are there simply don't go far enough. You can do an Iron Man match, but it can't last for 60 minutes. Likewise, there's the TLC option, but it's not possible to a three-team TLC bout like the original classics.
