In the meantime, taking to Twitter, a fan wrote, "Oh man. So bummed that there is no Bray", whereas another buff stated, "Weird exclusions and inclusions.. why is Nikki A.S.H. in the game instead of Cross? Johnny is missing for absolutely no reason, yet you guys had the time to put Aliyah in, even though she hasn't been on television for months. Just odd choices. 'Even weirder' is a better tagline."
Another fanatic took to the platform to comment, "Gargano is gonna be a part of the "welcome back" pack with Bray, Candice LeRae, hit row and Braun". In contrast, this supporter remarked, "So basically, the same roster as WWE2K22, with very few updates 🙄". Nevertheless, Gargano confirmed his character as playable, as he announced on Twitter, "There were some rumblings this morning.. so I talked to my friends over at @WWEgames, and I'm happy to announce myself that JOHNNY WRESTLING will be PLAYABLE AT LAUNCH in #WWE2K33!"
