  "textContent": "We did a review for WWE 2K26, which you should check out if you haven't already!\n\nOur review\n\nWWE 2K26 is in a bit of a weird spot, but I am very happy to see Kelly Kelly making her return. She is one of my favorite Superstars ever, and I think that they did a good job with her character model.\n\n> Today, 2K revealed WWE® 2K26’s latest Ringside Report, unveiling full details on Ringside Pass Season 2*. The new content will be available starting today, and as previously announced, players who installed before April 15, 2026, will automatically progress through the first 20 tiers to speed up their progress through Season 2.**\n>\n> On the Premium Track:\n\n  * Ringside Pass Season 2 offers four legendary  _WWE 2K_ franchise debuts, as **Ax** , **Smash** , and **Crush** of **Demolition** , plus **Kelly Kelly** , make their very first appearances on a  _WWE 2K_ roster, bringing a combined 35 new moves and taunts with them;\n    * Starting with Season 2, all new Ringside Pass Premium Track DLC characters are unlocked and available to claim immediately in Tier 1;\n  * Several new Personas are introduced, including three Wasteland versions of popular WWE Superstars, plus an array of new creation parts and moves for character customization.\n\n\n\nOn the Free Track:\n\n  * An updated version of “The Ruler,” **Oba Femi SNME ‘25** is based on his look from his Saturday Night’s Main Event match against Cody Rhodes from December 13, 2025, featuring his highly-requested hair-down hairstyle. Oba Femi SNME ‘25 will be available to all players in Tier 40 of the Ringside Pass Season 2 Free Track.\n\n\n\n> Making their debut in 1987, **Demolition** , consisting of Ax and Smash, cut a menacing appearance in studded leather gear and face paint, stomping into the arena to the tune of one of the most iconic entrance themes in WWE history. Their dreaded “Demolition Decapitation” finishing maneuver combined a backbreaker and flying elbow drop, and brought a brutal end to many of their matches. Joined by Crush in 1990, Demolition would capture the WWE Tag Team Championships three times and solidify their status as future WWE Hall of Famers. Their finisher, entrance theme, and both two-man and three-man entrance animations will all be available in ** _WWE 2K26_**.\n>\n> Debuting as a dancer tantalizing ECW crowds at just 19 years old, **Kelly Kelly** crossed paths with an array of personalities including  _**WWE 2K26 Standard Edition**_ cover star CM Punk, The Sandman, and Torrie Wilson, before joining the “Extreme Exposé” dance crew and eventually becoming an in-ring competitor. Making her way to Raw, then SmackDown, then back to Raw via the WWE Draft, Kelly Kelly defeated Brie Bella in 2011 to win the WWE Divas Championship. She also captured the WWE 24/7 Championship at the  _Raw Reunion_ event in 2019, becoming the first female competitor to hold the title.\n>\n> Three unique new Personas available in the Ringside Pass Season 2 Premium Track emerge straight from the Wasteland of Kairos: Rhea Ripley “Ripper Queen,” CM Punk “Ripper,” with and without mask, and Becky Lynch “Lilith.” Each of these new Personas comes with unique entrance music and animations that can also be used with other Superstars or Create-A-Superstars, including massive mechanical limbs and flaming wings. A total of 19 customizable parts, including a “Ripper” mask, are also included.\n>\n> Throughout the Premium Track of the Ringside Pass, players will also find some new Create-A-Superstar parts and moves, including Stephanie McMahon’s black corset and thigh-high boots from WrestleMania 32, and a collection of Ripple Junction shirts.\n>\n> Four editions of ** _WWE 2K26_** are available now, including ** _Standard Edition_** ,**_King of Kings Edition_** , ** _Attitude Era Edition_** , and  _**Monday Night War Edition**_. Ringside Pass Premium Season 2 is included in the  _Attitude Era Edition_ and  _Monday Night War Edition_ , as part of the Season Pass, and is also available for individual purchase.",
