Naturally, you can't have one Hardy without the other.

That'd just be rude, and who doesn't want to bring The Hardy Boyz back to WWE for one last stab at it?! Memories of their timeless WrestleMania 33 comeback from 2017 still give people chills, and rightly so. Speaking of which, this version (1?) of Matt will give you goosebumps too. It's arguably not as immediately gratifying as Jeff's model, but it's by no means poor. It isn't even average - this is top work from start to finish.

Bonus tip: Create The Hardy Boyz as a tag-team in the menus, then give them the 'Team Extreme' routine when putting together their entrance. Boom! Instant throwback to when they were the coolest duo in the doubles division.

2. Ricky Saints

There will still be some miffed that WWE changed the name of incoming AEW star Ricky Starks to Ricky Saints, but everyone will get over that in time. It's nothing to moan about, all things considered. The most important thing is that slicky Ricky is loving life again and enjoying being part of the pro wrestling biz. He defo wasn't once Tony Khan froze him out for reasons best known to the All Elite head honcho.

This CAW is the one yours truly used for his first MyRise playthrough (Stephanie Vaquer was the female counterpart to keep the story moving), and it was a fantastic experience. The default voice and attitude of the main protagonist kinda suits Saints, can't lie. That was an unexpected bonus.

Nearly 20,000 folks agree that this DreCAWs creation is a real winner.
