WWE 2K19: 10 Legends Who Must Be Included
6. Roddy Piper
Roddy Piper is another of those stars who should be one of the first legends 2K mark down. As both a heel and babyface, Piper carved a legacy for himself over the years as one of the best talkers in company history, and that alone should see him included when 2K tout a promo system in their titles.
There's no argument here. Piper ruled, and he was one of the most notable omissions from 2K18's ranks.
After being a DLC character in 2K16, Roddy disappeared in 2K17 and 2K18. That's two years in a row on the sidelines for one of WWE's most famous sons. If 2K are serious about making their games that all-round simulation of WWE's world, then it's important the most historically significant stars are playable.
Piper vs. Brock Lesnar, Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens are all matches that sound enticing. Right now, they're impossible without downloading some second-rate CAW from Community Creations. That's not a knock on the fine folks who upload their work, it's just fact that a pre-rendered Piper would be better.
