I legit laughed out loud when I found out recently that Cody Rhodes is in AEW Fight Forever. The game was released 14 months after he returned to WWE.

Inspired by a thread that shares almost no similarity with this but it got me thinking. Who are some guys that made it into mainstream wrestling games that are total “oh, wow.. he’s in here” worthy? I can vividly remember even as a young kid, seeing Bobby Blaze and Bobby Duncum Jr in WCW Mayhem on PS1 and having little to no idea who they were. I still don’t know if they did anything noteworthy enough during the development period of that game to warrant getting in, but I guess they did. As a kid, I totally thought he was the other half of High Voltage since Kenny Kaos was in that game, but the other guy wasn't. And Bobby Blaze sounds kind of like Robbie Rage so I just went with it.

While I know it was for the Steve Austin showcase, it was just jarring to see Mikey Whipwreck in 2K16.

The game was in development for so long I thought he was left in as an oversight.

Jackie Gayda is in WM21 on Xbox. I believe that's the only game she appeared in.

Mark Jindrak in SvR06 always felt random as f*** to me. I always forget he's there until GM Mode. One of my go-to jobbers!

Vito and Kid Kash in Smackdown vs Raw 2007.
Vito's model was tiny so it's obvious it was originally meant for Nunzio. Kid Kash had his Pitbull's attire and theme but Jamie Noble was missing.

Ken Shamrock as an unlockable character in No Mercy (N64). The game came out in late 2000. Last time Shamrock was on WWF TV as a wrestler was September/October 1999. Why was he in the game? Dunno. I believe Ken Shamrock was still under contract until late 2000, he was essentially on a leave of absence from WWF to resume his MMA career, so they said "F*** it, we can legally use him so might as well use him". His assets all would've still been in the game from WM2k

I had no idea that Mikey Whipwreck, Savio Vega and Gen Adnan all appeared in 2K16. Now there's a Triangle Of Terror!
