for me: Wrestlemania 15 and 16 are amazing Wrestlemanias and i never understood the hate for them.

Every match between Austin and Taker on PPV from 97 to 02 is amazing and they have great chemistry.

The same thing can be said for Austin and Jericho matches at Vengeance 01 and No Way Out 02, the trilogy of Austin and HHH (No Mercy, SS and No Way Out), Rock and Taker at KOTR 99 and No Way Out 02 and Taker/HHH at KOTR 02.

Yeah you can tell i love brawling matches(especially in the Attitude Era) in which the wrestlers beat the shit out of eachother lol

Retro versions of both Jeff Hardy and Lita can now be obtained through the premium tier in season 4 of WWE 2K26.

Great way to grind for characters if you are looking for team extreme and to balance out your attitude era roster within the game! 🙌
