WWE 2K26 Ringside Pass Adds AAA's La Parka & Octagon Jr

2K has revealed more DLC details for WWE 2K26, adding more superstars to the premium Ringside Pass Seasons. According to the official WWEGames account, AAA wrestlers Parka and Octagon Jr will be joining the ranks. Previously, we also confirmed the addition of Lady Shani and Pagano, so the AAA talent is certainly thriving in this game.

Also joining the roster are ECW and WWE legend “The Loose Cannon” Brian Pillman and Matt Cardona (better known as Zack Ryder in the WWE). Brian Pillan, La Parka, and Matt Cardona will be a part of Ringside Pass Season 3, while Pagano will be joining Brie Bella for Season 5 of the Ringside Pass.

After this wave of announcements, here’s what the updated DLC list is looking like for all the Ringside Pass seasons:

Season 1

Season 6

This list only leaves us with nine remaining superstars for Ringside Pass seasons 1 through 6. However, there is a high chance that we still get more DLC characters throughout the lifespan of WWE 2K26. Out of the 15 DLC wrestlers announced so far, seven of them are from AAA wrestling. It looks like WWE 2K26 wants to feel global with all these inclusions, and it’s good to see talent beyond the usual WWE roster. 

How The Ringside Pass Works

The Ringside Pass and the various editions of WWE 2K26 can be a bit confusing on the surface, but the model is simple once you understand it. Instead of a Season Pass that covers all characters or separate DLC packs, seasonal Ringside Passes are sold separately for $10. Another helpful thing to know is that you don’t have to worry about rushing to unlock all rewards for a season.

Content doesn’t expire, so you can still work on previous rewards as the next season rolls around. Finally, wrestlers are not unlocked right away, as you have to work through the tiers and challenges each season to unlock the DLC rewards.
