Even if they had been included, they probably wouldn't have looked much like themselves once a match begins. This might make people a little less upset about the WWE Divas Bayley, Becky Lynch, Charlotte, and Sasha Banks having been left out of the game. When the Bella twins walk in, they look so much like themselves, but then the match begins and you're like, 'Who are those chicks?' Cactus Jack is one of the few whose likeness remains intact, but others aren't so lucky. The characters look great during their entrances, but there are more than a few characters who look completely different once they're in the ring. But that's nothing compared to the visual disconnect. The characters plod along and occasionally lumber around the ring, which is fine for people like Andre the Giant and the Big Show, but doesn't make sense for Daniel Bryan or Stephanie McMahon.
Sometimes, they're stiff, wooden marionettes.
There are times when the Superstars, Divas, Managers, and Announcers of WWE 2K16 don't look quite right. I wish I could say the same for non-custom characters. Blood, Language, Suggestive Themes, Use of Alcohol, and Violence
