WWE 2K24: 15 Legends Who Must Be Included As DLC

The lineup of legends in WWE 2K24 looks great. Room for more? You bet!

2K has already named a truckload of legendary figures for the upcoming WWE 2K24 release. Stars as varied as Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Chyna, John Cena, Trish Stratus and erm...Post Malone have been announced. No, the last one doesn't qualify as a WWE icon, but someone out there in the wide wide world of sports will enjoy playing as Malone.

Those playable characters join a whole host of other names from the past. Sadly, Bray Wyatt is amongst them. It's hardly upsetting that people will get to play as multiple Bray incarnations in 2K24, but the wrestling world is still reeling from his tragic death. This is a nice little way to honour his legacy from the developers, if nothing else.

There's always room for even more legends though!

2K's DLC packs are typically thrashed out in advance, but there'd be nothing stopping them from loading up on favourites from the past and even going deep in the weeds to pick out workers who might be considered fun/quirky add-ons to the roster.

Here's everyone who should get a look-in post-release. Yes, yes some current AEW stars are in there too!

15. Bradshaw

Last Appearance: WWE '13

Please note: Not JBL! That gimmick from Bradshaw's lengthy run has been in countless WWE games since he debuted the cowboy hats and sharp suits back in 2004. The hope here is that APA-style Bradshaw will join Faarooq on the roster and let fans use the pair as a proper old-school tag-team in Universe Mode.

Feels like a missed opportunity if not, especially when Faarooq appears to be clad as his old APA self in this year's game. Surely Bradshaw is coming along for the ride (and some beer-soaked brawls) too?! Leaving him off disc in favour of the usual JBL model would be a mistake.

Here's hoping, eh?
