WWE fans have been baffled after Logan Paul and Machine Gun Kelly were announced as downloadable characters in the latest instalment of the world's largest wrestling franchise’s video game series WWE 2K22.
Obviously, Logan Paul has taken part in a number of boxing exhibition matches, and he’s also appeared in the world of professional wrestling too.

On one occasion he appeared at WrestleMania 37 and received a stunner from Kevin Owens, and last August he turned up again only to get mocked by The Miz.
As for MGK – real name Colson Baker – he’s also appeared in the WWE Universe, and also found himself on the wrong side of Kevin Owens.
He also performed at one or another WrestleMania once, too.
So, they’ve got a bit of history there, but still fans are baffled that they’ve been included.

After all, Donald Trump famously appeared in the WWE Universe back in the day, and he’s not been included.
One person commented: “I was considering buying WWE 2k22 but now Logan Paul is in it I think I'll pass.... although beating him with steel chairs does sound fun.

“He's a nobody in WWE whybis [sic] he there?”
Another said: “How has MSK not been included and MGK is, Man hope 2k loses their licence. I don't want EA to takeover aswell [sic], hopefully they can find a different games developer.”
MSK – a tag team – are actually in the game, for the avoidance of doubt.
Of course, MGK and Paul aren’t the only characters that will be available to download.

There’s a number of classic wrestlers such as the British Bulldog, Cactus Jack, Rikishi, and Yokozuna, as well as former UFC star Ronda Rousey, and – in fantastic news – Mr T.
The various packs will be released over a number of dates starting on April 26.
WWE 2K22 is released on March 11, although you’ll have to wait until July 19 for the pack that contains Machine Gun Kelly and Logan Paul.
