      The Def Jam games had the No Mercy game engine plus the follow up to Wcw Mayhem was Wcw Backstage Assault and that game engine was then given to the Legends of Wrestling games and now The Wrestling Code so do the research better dude

    TNA Impact 2 would have been great, the first game already had a unique gameplay features like being able to hit a dropkick mid animation as your opponent dived off to the top rope as well having collision detection in multi man matches, I think with new match types, more moves and a bigger roster, the sequel would have been a real hit!

    People like say 2K20s the worse but they play 22 and 23 and those games have alot of the same issues as 20 people literally be blinded by graphics. Thats the only reason I can think to why they praise these games . But the difference between those two and 20. Those games suck gameplay wise 2k20, didn't if 2k20 had been patched it would be been a good game and better than 22 n 23 but 2K19 still the best 👌

    I'm genuinely curious about your 2k22 opinion. Me personally, I think 2k19 is the best iteration of the 2k franchise and the newer titles have not been able to live up to it. 2k22 cut out an insane amount of additions: squash matches, roll out mechanics, opponents selling moves, Universe Promos, In-Game wrestler portraits so your CAW didn't look out of place, Advanced entrances, Online Entrances, and a whole slew of other content/mechanics(Not to mention the flop of a storyline compared to Buzz's.) I guess I just have a hard time believing 2k22 is the best in the franchise when it's only success was not being as bad as 2k20 which is a low bar to clear
