Lexis King got to break the news.
WWE 2K26 is scheduled for a global release on March 13th. As that date inches closer, more details and features about the game are rolling out.
A playable character that will be in the game is the late Brian Pillman, and that news was broken by his son, NXT talent Lexis King.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it has been a dream of mine to reclaim my birthright and take what belongs to me in the WWE, and that dream is quickly becoming a reality because I just heard through the grapevine that the WWE 2K26 Ringside Pass number three is going to include the legendary Brian Pillman. That’s right. You’re gonna get to play as me, you’re gonna get to play as my father, and you’re gonna get to play with us as a tag team and of course, you’re gonna make us the tag team champions because it belongs to us and it is my birthright.”
IT IS KNOWN!!! 👑👑👑👑 https://t.co/ILl9Cuimcw
