Did you know that in create an entrance there's a mistake Queen Extreme entrance is Queen Zelina

[@FabledGamerYT]

Did you know that if you play as Roman Reigns in the Money In The Bank arena, the crowd will chant “If you hate Roman, stand up” like they did in real life

[@Smacktalks]

I covered this one in the last episode but it's really cool to see they included it!

[@YouTubiusMees]

@@Smacktalks For some reason, the crowd also chants that when I'm playing as Roman at other arenas like Backlash. 🤔

[@FabledGamerYT]

@@SmacktalksOh you did? I only just discovered it & it thought it was pretty cool 😂

[@reality_is_sin]

English fans are just so peak

[@harrisoncooper3721]

Did you know that if you play as Corbin in NXT there’s a chance one of the audience members will yell “GO BACK TO RAW”

[@Nomad416]

Wish 2K24 used The Fiend's 2K20 victory sequence. Especially the on the stage part, seeing him look back over his shoulder at the camera against a completely black background with that screeching sound playing. Creepy AF because it wasn't the ring he was looking at, it was *you*, the player.

[@ONEOMNIPOTENTGOD]

Yeah I do like that motion.

[@vinedux]

yep, imo the entrance and victory was done better in 2k20

[@bigdonald123]

Nah using that might bring back some glitches from 2k20

[@RomantheWarriorgames]

Did you know the Venom Spit & Punt Kick move has been updated? The color of the venom was changed from green for Unleashed Randy Orton in 2K20 to blue for Asuka.

[@LAKNightmareMashupsYEAH]

It also doesn't DQ you like the other games

[@KICinder720]

I use that for my caws. Pretty cool they changed the color.

[@rileymurray986]

[@Porter69692001]

Not sure if this is of note, but when you do AJ Vs Kurt Angle, it references their time in TNA.

[@kujokev]

I like the idea of the fiend beating up his tag team partner after the match 😆

[@glowshow]

Did you know: if you use spin kick 2 as your finisher (I was using a custom superstar with this one), you can sometimes hear the commentary say “The demons are summoning” which is a reference to Malakai Black

[@lukebrown5017]

2:03 much as I do hope they patch it in future, I like the idea of once the fiend wins his tag match he immediately attacks his partner, hence the downed partner in the motion. Seems fitting for the character

[@ONEOMNIPOTENTGOD]

Did you know that in a Royal Rumble match, you can now adjust the maximum number of participants in the ring at one time to values between 4 and 8.

[@Homerstar]

Did you Know that there’s two new paybacks that can be unlocked through the Women’s MyRise Story.

[@marcushamilton6668]

Did you know that there is special dream match commentary between Shawn Michaels vs Randy Savage?

[@theamazingcj2748]

I really wish they'd change the lighting for the Fiend's entrance and victory. The entrance needs to be darker with smoke, and the victory needs the flashing lights and violin scrapes that it had before.

[@flarewolf120X]

I wish they included the laughing. It always creeped me out but Now I want it just to hear Bray laugh again…

[@theamazingcj2748]

[@zanyjon]
