Admittedly, this isn't the most spot on creation to ever grace those Community Creation tabs on a WWE 2K game, but it's still one of the better Matt Cardona models on the market. Others either lean too hard on his old Zack Ryder look or bizarrely undersize the dude so he looks more like Johnny Gargano than the real deal.

That isn't a knock at 'Johnny Wrestling', for the record. These guys just have different physiques.

Cardona's recent comeback puts him in roughly the same slot as ex-returnees like MVP, Carlito and John Morrison. In other words, he's there to make younger stars on the roster look magic, and he isn't really a focal point for the writing team himself. Perhaps you think that's outrageous and want Matt here to be WWE Champ in Universe Mode.

Hey, it's your sandbox.
