What is the origin of Suplex City in WWE 2K17? Some say it was formed out of the crater of a German Suplex that Brock Lesnar activated when an intern at a local WWE event told the beast incarnate that he didn’t have enough time to organise him a bowl of just red M & M’s as was described on his backstage write-up. Other people say that Suplex City was born out of a catchphrase that the WWE and Paul Heyman ran wild with.
I like my story better. WWE 2K17 is on the way, and with it comes the entire locker room of future Brock Lesnar victims. Here’s the week 2 roster reveal or as WWE 2K17 likes to call it, the Suplex City Census:
- Alicia Fox
- Andre the Giant
- Baron Corbin
- Big E
- Billy Gunn
- Braun Strowman
- Bret Hart
- British Bulldog
- Cesaro
- Charlotte
- Daniel Bryan
- Edge
- Finn Bálor
- Hideo Itami
- Jake Roberts
- Kalisto
- Randy Orton
- Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat
- Sin Cara
- The Rock
- Triple H
- Tyson Kidd
I always dig to see which legends make the cut in WWE 2K17, especially now that the company doesn’t want to admit that they ever had a guy whose name rhymes with Shmulk Shmogan working for them. Nope! Maybe Mr America will make an appearance then, because when it comes crashing down and it hurts inside, you’ve got to take a stand because it don’t hurt to hide.
Some people of course, who also rhyme with shmulkamaniacs happen to believe that the persona non grata of the WWE and Mr America are one and the same. Their evidence? Flimsy comparisons, as numerous charts apparently reveal that the two share the same physique, leathery skin, an appearance on Baywatch and a moustache that is hanging on for dear life. Flimsy. A crazy claim for sure, even if Mr America and He-who-will-not-be-named-BROTHER have never ever shared a ring together.
WWE 2K17 is out later this year, and here’s the week one roster reveal in case you missed it. Hopefully this time, it’ll finally have a Punjabi Prison Match option.

Oh please! If the Leg-Drop Legend and Mr America were the same person they’d have been on-screen at the same time. But they weren’t – you either got one or the other, so they can’t be the same person. It’s wrasslin’ logic, yo!

Braun Strowman looks like the kinda guy that would glare at a tree and it will just fall over.

Bah!
Andre the Giant looks like the kinda guy that glares at Braun Strowman and Strowman will just fall over.

Yeah well… If Andre the Giant fell on Finn Balor, he would have Finn Balor painted on his stomach.

Yeah well… If Hideo Itami threw a chair at the giant he’ll fall down.
