WWE 2K25 Players Are Roasting The Game's Underground Entrances

• Underground matches don't have ropes, which poses a problem for entrances in WWE 2K25.
• It seems 2K has opted to awkwardly cut to generic movements for wrestlers who need the ropes for entrances.
• Some fans are roasting the decision, while others are sympathetic considering the short development cycle.

2K somehow finds a way to add new matches to its WWE games every year. This year, WWE 2K25's new match types are Bloodline Rules, about which people have nothing but positive things to say, and Underground Rules. The introduction of Underground matches hasn't been getting quite as much praise, although some of you have been getting a good laugh out of some of its entrances.

Underground Match Entrances Are A Little Awkward In WWE 2K25

Which wrestlers have the most ridiculous looking Underground entrances?by u/Objectionne in WWEGames

Underground matches weren't a part of WWE for long, which is probably evidence that 2K is running out of ideas when it comes to introducing new match types to the series. The main difference between an Underground match and all other match types in WWE is the lack of ropes. That has made for some fun new mechanics in 2K25, like shoving opponents teetering on the edge of the ring into the people watching at ringside.

However, the lack of ropes poses a problem for Superstars who use them as part of their entrance. Take the Ultimate Warrior, for example. One of the most memorable parts of the late Hall of Famer's presentation was how he'd shake the ropes during his entrance. Underground matches weren't a thing when Warrior was around, so he didn't have to worry about what he'd do without ropes.

Since he's in WWE 2K25, the game's developers did need to overcome that hurdle, and judging by a thread on the WWEgames subreddit, players aren't that impressed with the solution. Warrior energatically starts running to the ring, as was the norm during his career, only for the camera to cut and show him strolling leisurely down the latter half of the ramp.

The rest is incredibly generic, and if you keep watching until John Cena is about to join him, it looks like it gets worse. After Cena does all of his schtick at the top of the ramp, there's a cut in the same place, and the 16-time World Champion proceeds to perform the same animations that Warrior did seconds before.
