WWE has had some memorable celebrity guest appearances over the years, but few are as iconic as Donald Trump’s. After a brief but brutal feud with Vince McMahon, Trump shaved his rival’s head in the center of the ring at WrestleMania 23. Now, thanks to creator RealAlphaDrum, WWE 2K22 players can reignite that bitter rivalry with this awesome, bespoke Trump.

Vince McMahon isn’t the only person Trump shares a bitter rivalry with. Just ask Joe Biden. Like his former political punching bag, the current President in WWE 2K22 is downloadable, allowing players to indulge in Presidential Punchout style. Whether the man himself would be too keen on the idea is debatable, although it’s safe to assume he wouldn’t be too keen on the creator of SKYFALLHUNTER using Trump’s nickname “Sleepy Joe.”

Speaking of punchouts, Mike Tyson is one of several current and former boxers created in WWE 2K22. Just like in real life, Iron Mike packs quite a punch and looks amazing on top of that thanks to the care and attention that creator FighterBigBootTV put into his design.

While boxers and MMA fighters are perhaps the most likely sports stars to be created in WWE 2K22, they are far from the only ones. There are already many soccer and basketball players in the game, the best of which might be SwissManagerENG’s Lebron James. This isn’t the first time LeBron has appeared in a non-basketball video game, however, as the living legend was also added to Fortnite last year.

Danny DeVito has played many iconic characters over the years, but few are as compelling as It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’s Frank Reynolds. The fluffy financier had many memorable moments during his time on the show, one of which saw him try his hand at wrestling under the alias Trashman. This particular escapade didn’t end too well for Cricket, but thanks to creator SuperBob, The Trashman lives on to fight another day.
Snoop Dogg

Few celebrities are as personable as Snoop Dogg, the rapper, streamer, and member of FaZe Clan. Snoop has appeared in numerous video game franchises over the years, including Madden, Tekken, and Call of Duty. This is his first appearance in a WWE 2K match, although he does have some in-ring experience, having speared Chavo Guerrero on an episode of Raw in 2009. This incident may have inspired CruiserOutsiderMAX to create the rapper in WWE 2K22, although he might as well love rap.
LoganPaul

From one of the most likable modern celebrities to one of the most loathed; To say that Logan Paul is a controversial figure would be a bit of an understatement. Love him or hate him, he’s incredibly popular in certain circles and has a strong connection to WWE, having competed in a tag team match at WrestleMania 38. It was recently announced that Paul will officially be added to the game as DLC. But for those who can’t wait to beat him, BruiserContenderMAX’s creation should come in handy.
Joe Exotic

2020 was a terrible year, but there were a few saving graces. One of them was Tiger King; a documentary series featuring a cast of larger-than-life characters who were so compelling that it felt more like fiction than fact. The star of the show was the self-proclaimed Tiger King, Joe Exotic, who ended up in prison after being convicted of a hit-and-run job. His attempts to secure a presidential pardon may have failed, but Joe can take comfort in learning that he is now a playable character in WWE 2K22, all thanks to creator WoweeLoverUK.
Eminem

Most of MARCOANDTARMA’s creations in WWE 2K22 are based on Super Heroes and Villains, but not all. Eminem is probably the most interesting celebrity they’ve created to date and one of many rappers now playable in the game. His signature blonde hair may be hidden, but Em is still easily recognizable thanks to the strong facial resemblance.

Eminem and 50 Cent have appeared together in a number of video games, the most notable being 50 Cent: Bulletproof. However, thanks to the work of creator SONNYBLACKCCN, the pair can now be reunited in the ring of WWE 2K22. Fiddy is really handsome too, thanks to his intricate gold chains and iconic headgear.
WWE2K22 is now available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
