While WWE 2K20 has had a ton of issues that are still being addressed and felt, the game just got a new patch trying to correct many of them. You can read the full patch notes here, but that's isn't the most important part of the latest update. The developers have added new Southpaw Wrestling content. If you don't know what that is, it's based on a set of parody videos many of the wrestlers created that harken back to the old territory days where your local wrestling organization was the center of attention. With many of them playing characters they made up on the spot. While the videos were fun, the content is… well… sorely lacking. Where the wrestlers made fun characters, WWE 2K20 seems to have just made parody '80s versions of wrestlers you already know. You can read more about it below and check out the trailer for the content. Funny enough, set to the old Saturday Night's Main Event theme.

New Showcase

Southpaw Regional Wrestling kicks off with its biggest show of the summer, but there's just one problem. Evil banker Mr. Mackelroy has purchased the company and intends to destroy it!

Fortunately for the Southpaw crew, fine print in the contract includes a loophole allowing Southpaw to win back ownership. They must beat Mr. Mackelroy's intimidating squad in a best-of-five series of matches. Can they do the impossible and beat the bully?

New Story Towers

  • "Cult of Rasslersize" – Misfit Molly Becky Lynch finds herself in the presence of hottest new workout trend, Rasslersize. These aerobics fitness freaks want Misfit Molly to join, and they're not taking no for an answer.
  • "What Goes Around…" – Mr. Mackelroy Tyler Breeze finds himself on the wrong side of a business deal gone wrong, and a shadowy figure has sent a band of debt collectors disguised as a glam rock band to collect his debt.
  • "Tower of Prep" – The Perth Preppies (The IIconics) are bratty rich kids who believe they deserve a shot at Southpaw's Women's Tag Championship, but the rest of the women's division has other plans.
  • "A Man and his Chickens" – Big Bartholomew Rusev lives a simple life. He wrestles and cares for his chickens. Mr. Mackelroy has kidnapped his chickens and plans to turn them into nuggets unless Big Bart can make it through his gauntlet of goons. At the end of it all, the terrible Sea Creature awaits.
  • "Street Ninja Showdown" – Ninjas have kidnapped Zack Ryder's girlfriend, who also happens to be the President of the United States. Street Zack Ryder and Street Curt Hawkins hit the pavement to rescue her in a throwback to beat 'em up games.
