Fans Reaction To The Reveal

The consensus for the reveal is mixed. Some fans appreciate 2K for paying homage to one of WWE’s legends, while others criticize it for not doing so authentically. Unlike other WWE superstars who have had full-body scans, Chyna’s model was created artificially since the superstar passed away in 2016. 

So, 2K does get a bit of leeway if Chyna’s model doesn’t look completely authentic. To be fair, the fact that she is back in the game is already great news for fans of the superstars. 

The other major critique is the accuracy of the 98’ Raw Is War Arena, many claiming that the recreation looks nothing like the original. One of the most common complaints with it is the color of the floor mats and other details. This Twitter comment sums it up perfectly. 

“The ’98 Raw is War arena is not accurate. The floor mats should be black, the guard rails should be black and there should be two announcer tables at ringside. Please fix this as this is a pre-order bonus that me and a lot of other people paid for!”

To be fair, the criticisms are justified. WWE 2K26 is promising authenticity in its presentation, and that’s what fans are paying for. These little details make or break the experience. 

With that said, the fact that one of the most iconic stars of the Attitude era is making a comeback is great news for WWE fans. As we inch closer to the release date, we are likely to get more superstars and DLC reveals. 

For longtime fans, the message is clear, the Ninth Wonder of the World is back — and she’s being treated like the icon she is.
