WWE 2K19: 10 Moments Daniel Bryan's Showcase Must Include

8. At Least One CM Punk Match

Uh oh, speaking of tricky...

In some respects, this is a bit of a pipe dream. CM Punk isn't on great terms with WWE, and he wasn't exactly thrilled the last time he was included in a company video game without being on the active roster in 2K15. Is it impossible? No, but it's not exactly a stick on either.

WWE would have to come to terms with Punk for this to happen, which looks unlikely. His matches against Bryan at both Over The Limit and Money In The Bank 2012 are milestone moments in Daniel's career however, and so they'd be very much welcome if 2K could strike a deal.

Admittedly, Punk's prior problems (both personally and legally) with WWE make this one difficult to see happening. That's a shame, not least because both matches belong on any comprehensive retrospective of Bryan's best in-ring battles.
