WWE 2K20: 10 Improvements It Must Make On 2K19

4. Specific Unlocked Moves Across All Fighting Styles

2K19 offers the ability to play across a wide range of character classes. Fighting styles on offer include Powerhouse, Technician, Striker, Giant and Cruiser. In the latter class, gamers have access to a sweet-as-hell group of high-flying moves such as springboard dives, and it opens up the attack variables mid-match.

Sounds great, doesn't it? There's only one problem: modern pro wrestling doesn't exactly group stars into such strict classes.

For example, bigger men such as NXT's Keith Lee have been known to fly around the ring in matches with better-known Cruisers like Ricochet on the indy scene, and he's more than capable of performing springboards himself. It'd be great if 2K recognised that and unlocked specific groups of moves so they could be used across very single fighting style in the game.

Of course, this'd have to be done within reason. Nobody needs to see Big Show cracking off head-scissor takedowns or 450 Splashes every couple of minutes (as cool as that would undoubtedly be, it's not realistic).
