3. Angry (But Not During Entrances)

Somebody backstage should've had a word with Bianca Belair before her match.

Belair spoke of being motivated by revenge and p*ssed off at Damage CTRL in promos ahead of time. Then, for some reason, Bianca was all smiles and ran through her familiar hair-twirling entrance routine like she was having the best time and just happy to be there. Huh? Where's the fire?!

Mercifully, it came following the bell, but attention to minor details counts. Perhaps Bianca should have a word with John Cena (more on that later) there. This all played out like a grudge match in your Universe Mode in WWE 2K23, and that's not meant in a complimentary way.

2K's producers get a pass, because they can't exactly mo-cap countless different entrances for every wrestler on the roster depending on story. Get this: Bianca doesn't need to be happy-go-lucky every single time. 99.9% sure fans could put up with her being all business when it suits the story.
