That's gotta be Kane! There are two base version of the 'Big Red Machine' to play as in 2K25 - his more modern look and an unmasked one from 2008. Both are valid, but come on now. Who'd rather play as 'mask/wig combo slipping off his head in Saudi Arabia' Kane over the original from way back in 1997?

Thankfully, WhatsTheStatus has your back. That creator has become one of the go-to choices for the CAW connoisseur, because the quality bar has been set higher than most. Those who adore attention to detail will be real pleased to see that WhatsTheStatus included two slightly different tweaks.

One sleeve wonder or fully clothed nightmare. You pick. This is a stunning bit of business, and a reminder that Kane '97 should be in WWE games by default. Yes, all of them.

Big Bill Goldberg hasn't been realised in 2K's franchise since 2K23. He skipped last year's game, and it's the same in this newer version too. Somewhat remarkably, Goldberg's retirement plans haven't included coming to terms on another deal with 2K/WWE that'll let him become part of an upcoming DLC pack either. So, your only hope is to rely on the Community Creations tabs.

Now for the good news: There are several solid Goldbergs hidden in those pages. The best belongs to ATTITUDECREATIONZ. Admittedly, Bill's head does seem an itsy bitsy too small for his hulking frame at first glance, but you can always dive in and modify that yourself if it causes issues. If not, then you've got a best in class Billy to call your own.

Now, someone book Goldberg vs. Bron Breakker and have them attempt spears at the same time.
