Travis Scott is out of WWE 2K25 following an unexplained fallout with WWE. We break down what happened, who’s replacing him, and what fans can expect from the upcoming DLCs.
Travis Scott Just Got Bodyslammed Out of WWE 2K25
Well, that didn’t last long. Travis Scott, who was this close to hopping into WWE 2K25 as a surprise celeb DLC character, just got booted from the roster. Why? A mysterious “falling out” with WWE itself. No one’s saying much, which only makes the whole thing feel like a boss fight with no health bar — confusing and frustrating.
And if you were hoping to hit a Sicko Mode finisher in the squared circle, sorry — it ain’t happening.
What Went Down? The Mysterious Fallout
According to a report from Insider Gaming, Travis Scott and WWE had a behind-the-scenes disagreement. The specifics? Locked tighter than a steel cage match. But what we do know is that Scott’s removal happened fast — and he was swapped out of the New Wave Pack DLC for someone else: El Grande Americano.
Yeah, not exactly a chart-topping replacement. Fans aren’t thrilled.
So… Why Was Travis Scott in WWE 2K25 Anyway?
Look, celebrity crossovers in games aren’t new. From Snoop Dogg in Call of Duty to Keanu in Cyberpunk, star power can bring major hype. And Travis Scott’s already got some gaming clout, thanks to that legendary Fortnite concert and ongoing GTA 6 rumors.
He was never officially confirmed until right before things blew up. So it looks like 2K and WWE were trying to go full surprise drop — until it turned into a surprise pull.
The Switch 2 Version Drops… Sorta
Meanwhile, WWE 2K25 just launched on the Nintendo Switch 2, but fans are having a mixed reaction. While the game includes the core gameplay and main modes, there’s no image uploader or crossplay community creations, which means your dream custom wrestlers are stuck in creative limbo.
Worse still? If you bought the physical version, all you got was a code in a box. No cartridge. Just vibes.
Upcoming DLC Still Looking Strong
Even without Travis, WWE 2K25 is still stacking its roster like a Royal Rumble lineup. Here’s what’s coming next:
September – Attitude Era Superstars Pack
- D’Lo Brown
- Billy Gunn
- Road Dogg
- Victoria
- Mark Henry
November – Saturday Night’s Main Event Pack
- Jesse Ventura
- Paul Orndorff
- Tito Santana
- Junkyard Dog
- Sid Justice
It’s a nostalgic slap in the face (in a good way) for longtime fans — even if it’s missing a little hip-hop flair.
So Where’s Travis Scott Headed Now?
While he’s out of the WWE ring, Travis isn’t done with games. Rumors say he’s popping up in GTA 6, which tracks with Rockstar’s love of musical tie-ins. So while WWE fans are left on read, GTA stans might get the last laugh.
Here’s the Recap
- Travis Scott was going to be a surprise WWE 2K25 DLC character
- He’s now removed after a mysterious “falling out” with WWE
- Replaced by El Grande Americano in the New Wave Pack
- WWE 2K25 just launched on Switch 2, but it’s missing key features
- More legendary wrestlers are dropping through 2025 DLC packs
- Travis might still show up in GTA 6
Final Take:
This one stings, not gonna lie. Travis Scott in a wrestling game could’ve been pure chaos (the fun kind). But hey, wrestling’s full of heel turns — even off-screen. Let’s just hope the rest of WWE 2K25’s content stays in the ring and out of drama.
