Just yesterday the Official WWE 2K Dev Youtube Channel released a new video in the 2K22 Dev Diaries Series which shows off some of the new entrance and victory animations for WWE 2K22.
So is this article we will be going over all of the video's entrance and victory motions and who we believe that they belong to.
New Entrance and Victory Animations
Here is a list of all of the video's shown animations and who they may be for.
- Entrance Motion 1 (Bobby Lashley)
- Entrance Motion 2 (Roman or Jey Uso?)
- Entrance Motion 3 (Braun Strowman)
- Entrance Motion 4 (Randy Orton)
- Entrance Motion 5 (The Miz Retro)
- Entrance Motion 6 (Bobby Lashley from the Turnbuckle)
Noticeable Motions in the Video
There are two motions during the video that raise some questions with the first one being the retro Miz motion as there may also be a retro Morrison motion as well since John Morrison came back to WWE last year.
However, the more concerning victory motion is that of Braun Strowman since he along with 5 other superstars were released 2 weeks ago so with this motion being included in the video so this is a good indication of Strowman still being in the game if he has a significant role in either Career or Showcase mode.
However, there is a chance that the other 5 superstars who were released as well may be in the game since they were all released so recently.
Other Things Seen in The Video
As from other things noticed during the video, most of the motions use the new shaky camera in some of the shots, which seems like a step in the right direction to make the game more realistic.
Also seen during the victory motions is more of the Thunderdome Arena used currently on WWE TV however it isn't fully completed as some of the lighting rigs are just floating in the air without being attached to anything.
The final thing of note to mention is that when viewing some of the victory motions, we can see the in-game models of the commentary team of Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Byron Saxton which don't seem to have been updated but future videos 2K may update their character models.
Here is the Entrance Animations video for anyone interested in taking a look for themselves.

We don't need the full list of jobbers from NXT and Main Event.
The most prominent wrestlers of all three shows (NXT, Raw and Smackdown) and legends, and it'll be fine.
Anyway, i hope we'll have well over 100 wrestlers this year too, and that they don't make a HUGE step back with a 60 wrestlers roster with a pathetic excuse like "models are better, moves are smoothier, textures are better, so we couldn't put more playable wrestlers than that)
Second : Today's wrestlers, either from NXT, Raw, Smackdown or pretty much anywhere else, could take hundreds of lessons about how to be a great wrestler. Most of them only cares about in-ring performance and have no charisma, no character, don't know how to sell properly and have zero in-ring psychology. Hell, most of them don't even know what's a mic.
Third : I talked about the JOBBERS FROM NXT. I didn't say the NXT Roster was full of jobbers. All i mean is that have the top stars of NXT in the game will be far enough. We don't need a 30+ NXT guys in the game, as most of them are irrelevant and they would take the spot of main roster guys.
Fourth : I don't see what "talent" has to do in a wrestling game. Great Khali was absolutely AWFULL in a ring, but i'd rather see him (won't happen, it's just an example) in the 2k22 roster than a nobody from NXT (again : by a nobody i mean not one of the 10-15 most known peoples from NXT at MOST)
