Actually there is one, and is because they don't see NXT UK as something important for the game (An example is the DLC where hopefully Dragunov and A-Kid were included yet Satomura, Noam Dar, Subculture, Gallus, etc. are absent)
They signed several female Legend contracts and they didn't put them in the game, ivory, Jacqueline, wendi ritcher, rockin robin, lita, Terri. Alundra Blayze molly holly, luna, mae young, Sensational Sherri.....
Everyone who fought against Vince's 3rd party ruling are not featured in this game, meaning they're not getting any royalties for their likeness which would supplement their income. It's not another passive-aggressive punishment tactic by WWE. Pretty obvious by now. And what I don't understand is; why they didn't LOAD on the Legends to make up for unloaded roster? Feature legends like Bad news Brown, Paul Ordorff, Jesse Ventura, ... oh right.. Vince is spiteful. Its clear 2k and WWE feel absolutely no guilt for 2020, and they don't feel they should make it up to their loyal costumers and fans with an extravaganza game. This was the only WWE product I'd waste my money and I won't be doing that again.
they should just keep these superstars in because it would leave so much variety to the game and would be way more interesting, i think its a shame they take them out…
@Lee Hayman In Legends case, once i read that they must get an special deal for a certain amount of years with options of renewal, that's why some of them debut on the game (base roster or dlc) but removed on the next one
I dare to say that on AEW there is actually patience in relation to plans for wrestlers, that's why all of their current champions are people not related with WWE
