WWE Superstar Tiffany Stratton recently reacted to her entrance in WWE 2K26 alongside the game’s staff, clearly looking unimpressed by her in-game counterpart. With only a couple of weeks remaining until the release of the newest entry in the annual wrestling franchise, 2K is rolling out all the details about what to expect. WWE 2K26 features more than 400 wrestlers for players to choose from between its array of current Superstars and all-time Legends, with many popular game modes getting some big improvements as well.
WWE 2K26‘s roster looks to feature plenty of first-timers, both adding new organizations and fan-favorite wrestlers. 2K officially confirmed the addition of multiple wrestlers from Lucha Libre AAA for this year’s entry, including names like Mr. Iguana and El Hijo del Vikingo, among others. One of NXT’s most popular wrestlers is also making his WWE 2K debut in this year’s game, introducing Joe Hendry and his viral entrance to the series, available for pre-ordering the game and individually for $9.99 USD. However, female Superstar Tiffany Stratton does not appear to be as pleased with her portrayal in WWE 2K26.
WWE 2K26 Essentially Has a $500 Microtransaction
WWE 2K26 reveals new details ahead of its launch in May, but one of the most shocking is a series of microtransactions that equals almost $500.
Tiffany Stratton Still Has Old Entrance in WWE 2K26
A recent video shared by Reddit user 35antonio shows Tiffany Stratton reacting to her entrance sequence in WWE 2K26, with the wrestler pointing out some notable issues. Stratton expressed her concerns that her entrance animation and music have not been updated, still using her entrance from her time with NXT. The showcase of her WWE 2K26 animations also features an odd visual bug with Stratton’s hair, with part of her hair wrapping around her neck like a necklace. Stratton did have some praise to give for her overall appearance in 2K26, however, complimenting the designs and accuracy of her lingerie-inspired outfit. The flashing lights in Stratton’s intro are a notable holdover from her time in NXT, joining the WWE’s main roster just over two years ago.

The odd repeat of Stratton’s older issues comes after a banner sophomore year in the WWE for the female Superstar. Tiffany Stratton captured her first WWE Championship in January 2025, defeating Nia Jax to win the title. Stratton held the WWE Women’s Championship for just under 300 days, only losing the title to Jade Cargill in November. She also secured a second-place finish at the January 31, 2026 edition of WWE’s Royal Rumble, narrowly losing to Liv Morgan at the event. Stratton has appeared in each WWE 2K game since her introduction as a DLC character in WWE 2K23.
Tiffany Stratton joins some of the most highly-regarded female Superstars in the WWE today within WWE 2K26‘s playable cast. The roster includes many of the organization’s biggest modern talents, with players able to take to the ring as stars like Asuka, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss, among many others. WWE 2K26 is giving fans even more chances to use its extensive roster of female wrestlers as well, with the game adding intergender support to the popular MyFaction game mode.
While WWE 2K26‘s selection boasts more than 400 current and past WWE Superstars, the game has still seen some roster omissions. WWE 2K26 cut a total of 46 wrestlers who were previously featured in WWE 2K25 from the new game, including both recently released Superstars and DLC characters, like KSI and Shaquille O’Neal. Rumors have also begun to swirl about one Legend potentially leaving the franchise next year, with Mick Foley’s Legends contract expiring in June and the wrestler formally parting ways with the WWE. WWE 2K26 looks to have some big changes on the way with the next entry in the franchise, with more likely to come in the future.
