2. Women's Showcase

Rumour: PWInsider reported the news that Sasha Banks was in the New York area a while back to do some work for the upcoming 2K20 game. After reading that, fan speculation online ran rampant that Sasha was laying down voice work for a women's Showcase.

Chances Of It Being True: Some sort of spotlight on women's wrestling is way overdue in 2K's series. If they put Becky Lynch on the cover and have a female Showcase Mode, it'd go some way to making up for years of neglect when WWE's real-life product has made progressive strides forward.

It's not like a Showcase on women would be bare bones. 2K have the rise of NXT stars like Sasha, Becky, Charlotte Flair, Paige, Alexa Bliss, Bayley and Nia Jax to work with. Plus, they've got epic main roster battles like that HIAC match Banks and Flair worked in 2016 or this year's WrestleMania 35 main event between Becky, Charlotte and Ronda Rousey.

This has to be the year when 2K take women's wrestling more seriously.
