Strap yourselves in, because this list is lengthy.

You may have skimmed through the other names in this article and thought the numbers were a bit thin. After all, the title boasted 49 playable wrestlers who won't return in 2K22. Don't worry, 'cause the rest of them are here too.

Try this on for size.

AOP, Alicia Fox, Ariya Daivari, Bo Dallas, The IIconics, Buddy Murphy, Curt Hawkins, Curtis Axel, EC3, Eric Young, Breezango, Jack Gallagher, Heath Slater, Jake Roberts, Kairi Sane, Kalisto, The Good Brothers, Kassius Ohno, Lana, Lars Sullivan, Maria Kanellis, Mike Kanellis, Mark Henry, Mickie James, Mojo Rawley, No Way Jose, Rowan, Ruby Riott, Sarah Logan, Sin Cara, Tony Nese, Tucker, Velveteen Dream and Zack Ryder.

All of those playable characters from 2K20 have been released from contract for various reasons and will be bumped from the roster in 2K22. That's an insane thought, and it means an incredible 49 slots (at least) will open up on the disc.
