While it's always great to be able to create wrestlers - or, y'know, just download the brilliant creation work of someone else - who aren't in your video game of choice one mildly awkward part of all of this comes when you find yourself on the player select screen.

Regardless of how great a CAW looks in-game, that selection screen will either have a completely blacked out, blank image or you'll have a skewed shot of the in-game model. When the wrestlers including in the release have nice and sleek real pictures of themselves, it can't help but make any creation look a little naff - even if just momentarily.

Quite brilliantly, WWE 2K22 allows you to utilise rendered images to use in the player selection screen. All in all, this brings a further sense of authenticity to any and all creations that are based on real-life wrestlers or celebrities. If you're relatively tech savvy, you should be able to upload your own renderings. If not, it's merely a case of searching through the 'images' section of the online creations of WWE 2K22.
