Are you wondering why WWE is suddenly trying to hand over the AAA franchise to EA? Apparently, the reason is the immense negative reviews of WWE 2K20. As a result, the WWE brand image got damaged and a record low sale battered the revenue stream.
The latest successor of the WWE 2K series will be released just after a few days and the fate of the reciprocity between WWE and 2K will depend on the reviews, ratings, and sales of WWE 2K22.
