3. Break The Steel Cage

2K have done a lot of work to make Steel Cages more important to the series, not to mention more fun, than they've ever been. The old system of stopping the meter when it was full has been abolished, and you'll now be asked to frantically tap displayed buttons in order to both scale and escape the structure.

It doesn't sound very exciting on paper, but it's a vast improvement.

Other cage-related changes include brand new animations when wrestlers smash against the steel, and it's even possible to pick enemies up and hurl them through the thing. Check out the featured .gif of Braun Strowman using Big Show as a lawn dart for an example of what's in store.

This 'OMG' moment looks fab, and it won't cost your wrestler the match either. To active it, store a finisher, take your opponent to the left hand side of the ring, rest them against the ropes and follow the on-screen instructions. Then, sit back and watch one of the coolest victory sequences WWE games have ever presented.
