It seems you can argue with the Referee again after doing certain actions. I'm liking all the advancements to Heel tactics in this game

Are those 5 things on the side CAW Unlockables? Also Shield Seth appears to be a Persona Card

Yeah it's stupid they messed his attire up when it's something so simple, you aren't wrong for mentioning it.

Not being able to edit the MyFaction characters would be lame if true. Like for example if Kane '98 was a regular character in the game you could give him the 2001 outfit, but I heard someone say they couldn't edit the 2009 Sheamus

Kane '98 gear being hidden in CAW Mode is the exact example I used for "watch them lock his gear out and then you can only use him in MyFaction" these past 2 years and now they did it. At least this year it seems we can use them in any game mode but I still don't have an opinion on that; we'll have to see if it's really scummy in terms of price, if you can straight up buy them, if they have their own assets like Entrances/Themes, and if Kane '98 specifically is available early on since his gear is locked away from launch.

For anyone wanting to check out the new moves, The101 did a really good job because he shows both the Pin Combo and Non-Pinning versions as well as some of the Freeze Payback animations (it seems some older taunts can be used as Freeze Payback animations too but since it only shows new animations we can't see what the old ones are; I assume Doink and Harley Race's taunts from 22/23 are probably in there and something that would work for Kane and Undertaker) SmackTalks also uploaded his Male CAW Mode Preview. Looks like about 10 new Hairstyles. Just like the Women, still no Body Morphing

Great Muta being in a WWE game is pretty damn cool

An 81 Overall in 2K24 is pretty much more valuable than an 85 in 2K23. The scale has been reset so 2K23 ratings shouldn't be compared to 2K24. They also have a tendency of rating NXT talent lower than Main Roster (and getting Legends Ratings really wrong, like JBL circa 2008 is 89 which is pretty elite as he was only like IC champ level, and 2000/2001 Faarooq is 85 which is a Main Event level Overall in this game even know he was firmly in the Mid Card as a Tag guy)

Not sure if this is the same one or not but here's a New Finishers Preview video

So stupid they didn't put Taker/Kane from WM 14 in

I wish they'd put WCW Rude in with his GOAT theme from SlamJam.

Couldn't we pretty much turn the blocking off in 2K23? I know it was a A.I logic slider but am I crazy to think there was a Universal slider for it too in the options?

I'm sticking to my word on this one but regardless I do like some of the new features shown today. The Spectator Mode is something I've always wanted. Could possibly be the best addition to the series this year IMO. It will be cool to see if people can master how to use it and play broadcaster. The Trading Blows mechanic looks decent. Fire Pro influence Throwing Weapons is super cool. Will make No DQ matches better for sure. I seen Rollins chuck a shovel I'm pretty sure, looked violent lol Blood looks great. If it's true that Chain Wrestling was supposed to be in but they left it out because Fight Forever has it... c'mon 2K. My thoughts exactly. I seen a clip of Rollins and Rude having a match and Rollins did a Standing Submission (Crossface) and it was kinda like a look into what the game would look like with regular grapples (as that's the only non-Payback/Sig/Finisher grapple you can hit without a prerequisite of some kind). Looks so buttery smooth and would make 2K19 look like a joke but they insist on bogging it down with bad design.

Awful Grapple/Irish Whip Mechanics with constant Collar and Elbow Tie Ups (and the worst looking transitions ever to make it even worse): Check Ugly Fighting Stances: Check Not surprised but honestly this one is a pass for me. I really miss being excited for these games but I doubt they make anything good for a while at this point.

I was legit shocked at the A.I. Logic Tendencies feature just casually being revealed by Bryan last year in the middle of someone's video. I think that was the only time it was mentioned until the other embargo lifted right before the game came out and someone else (Phoenix Nitro?) went through all the options for it.

I'm guessing we'll get a look at a Modern, fully scanned Trish. This is the second time she's hinted her fans will be happy for 2K24. Probably a promo shot like the Becky picture that dropped earlier.

I'm sure all the old ones from 2K23 are there too

The three we know so far: Iron Jaw = Deactivate your Stun State Freeze = Scare your opponent leaving them still in place (Undertaker, Kane) or cower and then take advantage when they let their guard down (Eddie Guerrero, Ric Flair) Fireball = Throw a Fireball at your opponent (Jerry Lawler, Hollywood Hogan, Kane, Alexa Bliss) Then there's 2 unknown Payback abilities unlocked in MyRise, and another one we know nothing about yet. I can't think of anything else but when they stick to realistic Wrestling tropes they are usually pretty cool. Maybe something involving Referees? I want to see stuff that Heels can use I guess.

In theory it could be a Corner Springboard as well, they would have to add the Corner Springboards as Finishers this time though

As long as you aren't limited to only 1 or 2 in the same position this is GREAT! It helps alleviate some of the problems that comes from the Grab system. Now in theory I should be able to put 5 of somone's Front Grapples as Signatures so they don't need to Collar and Elbow before they do the move. I'll hold my breath though incase they say you can only have 2 per position which doesn't ruin the feature as it's still useful, but in that case it wouldn't help anymore than Sigs do in 23 for their bad gameplay design caused by the Grab system (which seems to be still in the game judging by the fact they haven't said they brought back the lunging grapples) -------- The Iron Jaw and Freeze Paybacks sound great. I assume Harley Race's DLC taunt last year with the hidden attack was pretty much the Preview of the Freeze Payback.

I was about to happy that you could have 5 Sigs and 5 Finishers because that would help the Grappling problem I have where you always have to Combo or Collar & Elbow to do Grapples like a Spinebuster, Backbreaker etc because then you can just use some of their stronger moves as Sigs and for some people bump some of their Sigs up to a Finisher if it makes sense but as soon as I came to that conclusion I realized Lynell means you can store 5 of each. Wow, what a disappointment.

I think it's because the Supercharger unlocks the Normal Unlockables you get with the In Game Currency and then this Unlocker will unlock the Showcase Mode content (hopefully the arenas too). Only other mode is MyRise if they have stuff in there (which I imagine they will again)

Moving the camera during Gameplay sounds interesting

Kevin Owens still hitting a stupid fighting stance
