WWE Superstars are very busy and can’t really block off a bunch of time for motion capturing. This is why 2K called other people to do the job.

2K brought in plenty of pro wrestlers to do motion capturing so they could demonstrate the moves in the ring. Then the 2K crew took that capturing and placed it on the Superstar models.

You can check out the list of pro wrestling stars who participated in the game below. You’ll see stars from AEW, Impact Wrestling, ROH, and even NXT.

  • Austin Theory
  • Aerial Monroe
  • Kylie Rae
  • Allysin Kay / Sienna
  • Brian Cage
  • Jason Cade
  • Jeff Cobb
  • Jessika Havok
  • Dezmond Xavier
  • Jay Cruz
  • Andrew Everett
  • Marty Elias
  • Kenny King
  • Kris Stadtlander
  • Scorpio Sky
  • Matt Cross
  • Penelope Ford
  • Santana Garrett
  • “The Librarian” Peter Avalon
  • Rachel Evers
  • Tye Dillinger/Shawn Spears
  • Nicole Savoy
  • TJ Perkins – TJP
  • Eli Drake
  • Isaiah “Swerve” Scott
  • Tanea Brooks – Rebel
  • Trevor Lee Caddell – Cameron Grimes

It takes quite a while to make a video game so the motion capturing for guys like Austin Theory and Swerve Scott was likely done well before signing NXT contracts.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
