WWE 2K23 boasts one of the most memorable Showcase Modes to date, with players able to relive some of John Cena's biggest and most iconic defeats. This means that rather than getting to control Cena himself, they'll instead be spending most of their time pummelling this fan-favorite fighter to a pulp.
Some of these matches can be incredibly challenging due to the number of objectives that players will need to complete. It's well worth it in the end though, as there are plenty of great Showcase Mode unlockables in WWE 2K23, including a ton of new Superstars, Attires, Championships, and Arenas.
