WWE 2K19: 10 Potential Showcase Modes

2. The Rise Of The Rock

Some of The Rock's biggest matches have already popped up in both WWE '13's Attitude Era revisit and 2K16's Stone Cold Showcase. There, an IC Title match from In Your House: D-Generation X, as well as some other matches from Raw and pay-per-view (including the famed WrestleMania trio both worked) were featured.

Think that doesn't leave anything for a mode entitled "The Rise Of The Rock"? Well, it doesn't matter what you think (sorry).

Away from Austin, Rocky has done enough to warrant his own Showcase. His feuds with Triple H, John Cena, The Undertaker, Mick Foley and beyond are worthy of examination, and the same could be argued for his incredible crossover to film.

The Rock isn't just another former WWE star, he's the biggest box office attraction Hollywood has. Stick him on the game's box again and sales would surely spike due to his mainstream appeal. Forget having him pick the soundtrack like he did in 2K18, because there's one hell of a career to dive into.
