WWE 2K23 Did You Know?: New Updated Superstars, Referee Updates, Unique Reversals & More (Episode 4)

[@kadharefinley224]

I’m so glad that modders can add : Facepaint, Facial Hair, Tattoos etc. Now people won’t be outdated

[@Smacktalks]

It's incredible to see! Hopefully it leads to it being an actual feature next year! 🤞

[@ILoveMyBeard001]

tis wil be patched out by 2k 1000000%

[@ToxicBanana]

@@Smacktalks It always confused me why it wasn't a feature. I can maybe see it being because those that have facial hair or regular hair may not be fully textured underneath said hair, but if they really wanted they could just make it so the hair is only add-able and not remove-able

[@lord1153]

@@Smacktalks hello

[@DDeniseW]

@@ToxicBanana No I think they should give us full access on removing and adding hair and facial hair to keep the stars updated like irl same goes for makeup

[@odversacee]

This modding superstars is so amazing. Now we don’t have to worry about a custom body for just a tatoo or updated hair!

[@arodrig]

Did you know Sin Cara's gear can still be seen on the seamstress table during backstage scenes of MyRise? Likely left over from 2K18 along with the masks of Gran Metalik and others on the wall of Club UK

[@jaydendm715]

Did you know that Undertaker now sticks his tongue out when pinning after doing the Tombstone Piledriver? This also works when the move thief payback is equipped to any male superstar.

[@Kamsae]

Yeah that's very cool. I've noticed when giving dominik Eddie Guerrero 97 motion, he can see tongue animations for a brief second. I guess I wasn't just imagining it.

[@foodreacts837]

swear he used too

[@blair2743]

3:58 So that's why the referee sometimes makes slow counts in the matches I play! I thought it was just the game trying to mess with me - like an "easier for AI, harder for human players" thing because I swear that's been in previous games 🤣

[@CozyHumanoid]

BS I thought the refs were broken. lmao! cool feature imo.

[@wolfmode0061]

They need to add animations to have the referee sell their injuries because it did look like a glitch.

[@agris9071]

@@wolfmode0061well they wanna add more problems

[@MrJamess1982]

It’s great people are doing the work to keep this game as up to date as a WWE game can be. But I think it’s a shame that it falls on the players and not 2K23 developers. They should be putting out these updates. At the bare minimum they should be putting out newest Titantron videos and music. Even for wrestlers not appearing in this game. If they have a contract with WWE add them. We know they exist

[@sharkgrayc7z06corvette9]

Agreed and only a few pc players who know how to get into the files can do this. It should be available in the creation suite for everyone

[@divinitycomplex1]

By the time the game comes out they have to start work on the next game and getting everything prepared for that while also managing bug fixes and working on the DLC. That's the problem with making an annual game from a single developer, they don't have as much time to commit to the game as I am sure they would like to.

[@paredfia]

You don’t understand how game development works. This is the building block and letting players do it is the start. Eventually you’ll see something that follows along with more current storylines and looks, minus the titantrons. They only have so much time each year and it’s obvious they “put in the work” this year given the improvements you are seeing.

[@Podgorski37]

Learn how game dev works, buddy

[@SokuThePunless]

Great, I can’t wait to play as Perc Angle.

[@Habib_ApaKhabar]

Hello! Smacktalks can i ask? how do i tell you about Did you know series? if i wanna include things that i found in the game? how do i inform it to you

[@Ltwon7]

There have been some things I have noticed that I didn't is last years games 1. In Creating a Wrestler, there is AI sliders like in game options from the main menu, along with that possibly my character has been countering moves on its own without my input so there maybe affects from the CAW AI sliders doing that. I definitely did notice as a new feature.

[@WayOfThePharaoh]

Pisses me off that Joe mashups and whatsthestatus not spilling the tea on now to add tattoos, beards and hairs on current superstars.

[@guillermosierracuellar9812]

Did you know that the 2008 night of champions arena has been fixed and now it shows the cruiserweight title with the correct logo instead of the ecw one

[@woodybrotherwrestling]

Cool

[@declangaming24]

Shouldn't be the ECW title banner at that event was the cruiserweight title with the ECW letters over it so they got something wrong the cruiserweight title was deactivated in 2007.

[@Insane_Leaf]

Did you know :- There is unique commentery for Undertaker vs Undertaker & Hogan vs Hogan, In a Royal Rumble match if your team mate comes out they will not attack you then will ally with you e.g orton coming out when riddle is in the match or the bloodline, Did you know the undertaker rolls his eyes when he does the pin combo with the tombstone, Zelena Vega has 2 Unique reversals to clotheslines 1 - rolls out of the road and then lies down on the floor like Andrade used to 2nd - Matrix dodge into middle superkick

[@KegOfMeat]

You can’t choose Cody’s entrance music for the jukebox. Cedric Alexander’s jacket has a logo that’s an homage to the My Hero Academia logo. Beckys entrance not having the visor is just fucking lazy.

[@SHERRYMJ]

Happy to see The Rocks Tattoo fixed was really bugging me all this time in 2k22 😅 plus i love his new Rock Bottem animation 🔥

[@MCB741]

I’m a little hesitant on downloading these modded people, really don’t want a corrupted save or something.

[@lil_djprod.v2766]

I really like that they got different voices for the referees.

[@trevorb3492]

SmackTalks, If you knock the ref out during the OMG break the ring moment, he stays in the ring and gets up to ring the bell if the sliders are adjusted right!!!

[@kennythetrend3688]

2:16 Did you know? 2K gave 2016 AJ for Showcase his 2022 gloves instead of his accurate Blue ones from 2016?

[@rgamer9797]

I’m just really disappointed Torrie Wilson isn’t dlc and after playing 2k23 abit now my only issue is the hit points being abit off, when you and your opponent are punching and kicking each other but nothing connects, it happens all the time

[@deadpoolnerd]

I so hope the developers don't patch over these new abilities. Because I know why this isn't a default feature is like due to likenesses copyright etc. So I hope they don't remove it because of that. Also because this is now an option I wish alt attires had their own save section and not taking a caw slot

[@sodokami6347]

They’re most likely gonna patch it like the other ones

[@VenkmanGump]

Did you know? if you hold a title belt and used the taunt button you will hit your opponent and you will not be disqualified

[@99ConnorMills]

There’s new unique match commentary you know I love these! Happy Corbin vs Madcap Moss Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley Cody Rhodes vs Seth Rollins Bron Breakker vs Dolph Ziggler Edge vs Finn Balor Edge ‘06 vs John Cena ‘06 (About 6 different commentary lines) Kevin Owens vs Roman Reigns Liv Morgan vs Ronda Rousey Bobby Lashley vs Omos Matt Riddle vs Randy Orton Jey Uso vs Sami Zayn Dominik vs Rey Mysterio Kevin Owens vs Stone Cold Matt Riddle vs Seth Rollins John Cena vs Bruno Sammartino John Cena vs Stone Cold

[@callmeshady6234]

Did you know Tegan Nox's 2k22 render is in the game under Superstar images

[@nicobarrios9970]

Question; in universe mode, there's no more show intro's any more??? Or are they disabled in some place?

[@lmgfinalhour3492]

Did You Know?: In a MyRise cutscene backstage as you are healing up after a beat down, you are talking to HBK and in the background on top of a fridge/shelf is a box that says dirty deeds on the side of it

[@Hobbclub3500]

Did you know in the Night Of Champions 2008 arena there's ECW announcer tables

[@death555ful]

I don’t have any commentary in my version of 2k23 and idk it ain’t working idk if it’s a option or it’s just not working on PS4 pro as it really should be idk what’s going on

[@Gaming101CAWs]

The Hogan vs Cena commentary should've had a reference to All Stars calling their match an "All Star" classic

[@yousefhesham7633]

I can't edit trios entrances in universe mode. Does anyone have the same problem? And if so is there a way around it?

[@wrestlingwithjay3770]

Luv ur vids ❤😊

[@enderpunk2k22yt7]

Did you know that in create an arena you can use pretty much every every trons with any stage used allowing arenas to be more creative

[@FireFox_-rk2hv]

R.I.P for those in Oklahoma still waiting for the game

[@iamkingsixx]

Did you know the WWE European championship has World Wrestling Federation on it not world Wrestling entertainment just like last year

[@chrisdanger5426]

Did you know when playing on WrestleMania 28 arena or New years resolution arena the commentators will commentate as if the ppv was happening live

[@lonewolffang]

A staggering limp for the referees could be an animation patch to make them look more authentic.

[@Ltwon7]

Forgot to add another thing I noticed, for some reason Kingdom by Downstrait aka Cody's theme, is not a selection when trying to add it on Create an Entrance, I went to look on Cody's entrance and it's not selected either, but when I put both me and Cody in a match, Kingdom played for him but not me. Not sure if it's a bug/glitch or on purpose.

[@Saturn-tw6wf]

It's intentional. Both his and Ronda Rousey's themes are listed as "Exclusive Music" for them. Only they can use it. Likely some licensing stuff going on there where only they're allowed to use their songs.

[@Ltwon7]

@@Saturn-tw6wf oh well shit, I wanted to use it for my entrance. That sucks

[@hawaiianaf2308]

Yah they even took out using the soundtrack songs.

[@MrJFarron1989]

Did you know Max Dupri has a manager card in myfaction Did you know Jean Paul Levesque is unlockable in my rise.

[@sharkgrayc7z06corvette9]

Did you know that 2K still hasn’t made all superstar hairstyles available in the creation suite? Ever after they claim to give players the ability to make more real life caws but it’s not possible to do with their horrible caw hairstyles

[@sodokami6347]

Yeah fr

[@Kskillz2]

Thanks for the mention dude 👊🏾

[@matthewdalrymple4813]

so like with the updated superstars from whatsthestatus do we just apply them as an alt?

[@yskrhodes1534]

Did you know that there’s a hidden triple h “ Jean Paul Levasque”model unlocked during my rise

[@brziperiod]

6:53 hold on... does this mean.... PERC ANGLE?!

[@adamwalling8710]

So mad I can’t use Cody Rhodes music for my created superstar

[@puffpuffnews5058]

I try to match with John Cena and Bruno sammartino it'll also do the dream match commentary for them

[@Sam-ic7gg]

@Smacktalks Not sure if it is noteworthy, But did you know that anytime you initiate a Submission it will always Start with Square/Circle or X/B So when you go into a submission make sure your spamming one of those 2 to get ahead (Am yet to see a submission start with a different button)

[@NotchGY19]

Did you know if you have a female ref in a men's match, you will not be able to manually target her?

[@LeoX78]

Did you know, 2K has added an entrance for Indie star Kylie Rae titled "ALL SMILE", this comes after her tryout for WWE last year where she completed in a dark match on main event

[@caseybaxta7020]

Becky is my favourite female superstar but after she gave birth and came back to wwe I never really liked her outfit, can I change how she looks back to the man Becky lynch?

[@AlwaysOnDeck]

Can the modded Hair/beard/facepaint wrestlers be used as an Alt?

[@Tyler2Night]

Did you know that in a ladder match you can add more than one ladder bridge at the same time,and once they break, you can pull them out again

[@MrCreepyBoss]

Thanks for the mention bro!

[@Mr.smiley_face]

Glitch or not. When selecting “The wrong” or “The first” choice superstar to defeat Cena, In showcase. Cena will automatically perform an attitude adjustment pin combo, to win the match.

[@czenner26]

Did you know you can ignite a flaming table now without it being an extreme rules match had a flaming table in a TLC match

[@tacokillu.]

If you get a 2 count the crowd will chant sweeeeet afterwards

[@jeanmarcriot24]

If i'm a PS4 user can i download those modes and use them as alternative attire for my superstars?

[@Notoriouskid28]

Sorry if this is a dumb question but, I’m genuinely curious Is community creations also available on the ps4 or is it just a ps5 deal?

[@Megastar_Tye]

😐

[@RockingSnake99]

When picking an entrance theme in Create An Entrance Basic Thuganomics is listed as "John Cena 04" instead of 03. Makes me wonder if there were plans originally for a 04 version of Cena. (Carlito in the Showcase maybe?)

[@justoneguy2487]

Thuganomics John Cena was listed as John Cena 04 in WWE'13 so maybe it had something to do with that?

[@mille7689]

Still no double title entrance, but DID YOU KNOW, you only get it if you assign a Manager, just one Version of the double title entrance (Roman reigns Version), plus you cant get a double title match in universe mode just in the normal play Mode its crazy that Things that we had in 2k18 etc. are no longer in a New game 😡

[@SixkBoyInc]

Dont know if this is allowed as it includes something from the myrise . . . . . Did you know that in the men’s myrise in the side storyline “Rise or fall or rise“ that you face off with a different version of el generico called el ordinario? It has a base Sami zayn model with grey tights and a basic grey mask? Sadly from what I’ve seen he is not unlockable but could easily gathered in the future from whatsthestatus He is also in some other sub-sequential storyline’s in the mode to fill up a spot for matches

[@zigglerfan]

Did they fix create an arena

[@thombli4]

The only thing we need now is custom music

[@Dupple606]

How do you get these attires with the facial parts on the actual superstar ?

[@themainman8405]

I also noticed X-Pacs DX gear(trunks and top) and Triple Hs DX gear are in the superstar creations

[@MrJamess1982]

I noticed some of WhatTheStatus CAWs such as the Triple H and Randy Orton have a “!” On them. Does anyone know why? Or if they are still valid? Will they work?

[@TRiQSZtm]

That means that you need to beat the corresponding match in Showcase Mode as the superstar that you're trying to download.

[@MrJamess1982]

@@TRiQSZtm thanks for the response. I was worried those files were damaged.

[@CozyHumanoid]

Did you know? You can update : Jean Paul Levesque attire to Hunter Hearst Helmsley's debut 1995 attire since all his clothes are still in creation suite. Also. They are Tired motions now if the wrestlers are out of stamina when they punch the opponent they animate as if they are tired.

[@marcusorlandi8054]

I'm playing on Xbox one and my crowd isn't blurry like it is on these uploads. Anyone else have that?

[@jamalcollier24]

That referee slow count is great for universe mode

[@wolfmode0061]

It really is. They just need to sell their injuries.

[@Lopretey]

Did you know that there are renders for altered attire pieces and that you can see what they would have looked like?? For example you can actually see what edges attire in the showcase was supposed to look like if you go to edit his attire and look at the render on the left hand side. Same thing goes for the 03’ John Cena’s Adidas boots. Another is Mustafa Ali's tights with the Chicago coloring not featuring the white and red stars.

[@GuerillaMetal]

Did you know that The Undertaker does his eye roll when you do the Tombstone when pinning?

[@xxmoonmassacrexx7218]

Could you please do a video that explains/touches on all the advance pin settings?? I just can’t figure out what it all means but I would like to tweak them so that when someone hits a finisher they’re less likely to kick out

[@EMcgame.23]

Wait a minute that should use Austin Theory facial hair and the rock tattoo updates for the patch I mean it would make sense right

[@joer3720]

Did you know: despite Roman’s double title entrance, the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship isn’t on the game and you can’t defend more than one title in a match?

[@1981troyboy]

how do you unlock 80's Hulk Hogan? all i have is Hollywood and the 2000's hulk

[@ericdraven8784]

Showcase mode

[@nicholasstewart9991]

Not sure if anyone else has noticed or mentioned (probably have but I'll say it anyway), The Usos have their own double title entrance with both sets of tag titles not just one of each like in the Bloodline Trio entrance

[@lincolncolejr5902]

Did you know that the lock's myrise story's "Apex Tournament" does include a small detail that has the same scoring system as NJPW's G1 Climax tournament?

[@toypikachutheoctoling6029]

[@jeremylentz2404]

did you know that there is special dream match commentary if you play as hulk hogan vs hollywood Hogan the commentators will go meta on how hulk hogan thinks hollywood hogan betrayed the hulkamaniacs and how its red and yellow vs black and white

[@EthicalSoldja]

Im might getting it wrong but if you have a female referee you can't target her if you play as a male even with manual target

Did you know there are various lines of commentary when a champion enters war games

I wanna stress that this does NOT mean you can mod on console. Status and Joe were simply able to upload their modified superstars to Community Creations. Every other kind of mod is incompatible with consoles unless specifically stated otherwise by the mod creator.

[@ItzCatveira]

3:58 i swear the ref was still slow counting in one or 2 of my matches in my rise even after taking no damage

[@percent1303]

Isn’t there lone wolf Barron corbon?

Nah, it's a new feature but it looks odd with the regular animation. Hopefully they can update it in a patch.
