Elmo just getting destroyed by Yoda and Koopa Troopa at 1:27:00 had me in tears of laughter. Did it watching it live, did it again watching the VOD. Definitely up there with Charlie having a Joker moment by hitting Batman multiple times in the nuts with a bat as one of my favorite moments in the WWE 2K series.
Ray If you are reading this I wanted to let you know that you and your content have really helped me in some really hard and dark times lately and have really encouraged me to get back into the content creation game. So from the bottom of my heart thank you!
Watching the first Royal Rumble in the beginning and seeing Colossus destroy half the competitors before being eliminated totally reminded me of when Brock Lesnar eliminated like half the Rumble before being eliminated by Drew McIntyre. 😂
1:21:56 Koopa be like But above the gray land and the spasms of bleak dust which drift endlessly over it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg.
so, for anyone curious: The move that both Lil Mac as well as Goku Black use when they put their hands besides their opponents head is from the manga and anime series "Fist of the Northstar". The main character Kenshiro used that manouver a few times.Basically, in universe, Kenshiro can use his own energy to overcharge or control the opponent by touching specific spots on their bodies, and, with that move, he basically lets them explode instead of just going bananas like here.
2:53:59 best damn part. I wanna see Goku Black vs Gigachad. Characters I wanna see. Deku from My Hero Naruto Shredder from TMNT Vegeta from DBZ Mace Windu from Star Wars The 4 turtles from TMNT Patrick Star from Spongebob Donald Trump And lastly Jimmy Neutron.
Hey Ray, long time youtube frog since the RT days. I actually worked on WWE 2K23! It's my first job/credits in the game industry, and I'm so happy to see you playing it!
3:46:47 - Idk if I'd call R-Truth an 'interesting wrestler' considering his whole act was pretending to be mentally unstable? Like his whole act was that he had a crew of invisible children following him
I doubt you'll see this, but if you want to see an actual War Games match, AEW is about to have one tomorrow (Wednesday) night! They call it a Blood & Guts match because WWE owns the trademark, it's featuring the Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC and Konosuke Takeshita) vs The Elite (Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks, Adam Page and Kota Ibushi) Should be a good time!
Only caught the final match of the livestream but it's crazy seeing all these characters from other media who shouldn't be in this roster, oh and Logan Paul too.😒 Couldn't ask on stream so now; "Who is Wario's favourite all-time wrestler?" Wahoo McDaniel
Man I just went on an achievement hunter spree today and learned about all the shit that’s happened with rooster teeth layoffs and Ryan etc. and I’m so grateful that Ray is still out here killing it. 🔥💯
The entire game is dog water. Controls are clunky, the character models looks like action figures smothered in Vaseline, the pin system is horrendous, there’s barley any game modes.
Top tier, solid and funny Content as always, but interesting choice with the Thumbnail. Only the of center W2K23, don´t know about that with clickability, but you are the pros here, not me
Always liked this series that Ray does. But I still think it would be fun to see him watch his mods in an elimination chamber or hell in a cell. Even though it wouldn’t be allowed I just want to watch Jamie stun Spencer.

Yo I like this guy's vibes. Hope to see a lot of growth from his starting point of 6 subs
1:34:56 Darth Maul grabbing Elmo by the shoulder and being like "Hey man look we did it, brother!" is the funniest image to me.
I had to go back and see that, that was amazing
Ray falling for Rhea Ripley at first sight was very relatable.
That's our streamer, baby
I mean....look at her.
i paused immediately in utter shock, i have never seen a single wrestling match and even i’ve already had that moment LMAO
Timestamp?

wishing you all the best!!!
@@glassesjournal you're very welcome! I'm in and out but have found reasons to keep moving and smiling
I lost myself to a laughing fit when Shaggy choked out Mr. Libido.
apparently he was upset he had to use 1% of his power
2:57:04
Just had to get the time stamp of a part that nearly made me cry laughing 😂
Favorite thing about the loss at 3:05:35 is that squirtle had the "powerup" to instantly kick out of any pin. AI gonna AI.
Watching the first Royal Rumble in the beginning and seeing Colossus destroy half the competitors before being eliminated totally reminded me of when Brock Lesnar eliminated like half the Rumble before being eliminated by Drew McIntyre. 😂
Ray seeing Rhea Ripley is everyone that watches WWE or has seen her for the first time
Elmo getting the pin after being jumped was a true underdog story. It was beautiful.
3:43:08 Austin Theory continues to be the main antagonist of Ray’s WWE 2K streams
"Zangief just slammed Jimminy Cricket on his stupid fedora." - The literal last sentence in existence I woke up today expecting to hear. 🤣
1:21:56 Koopa be like
But above the gray land and the spasms of bleak dust which drift endlessly over it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg.
Colossus is just like Brock Lesnar in the 2020's Royal Rumble at the start of the match
And then Bubble Bass became Drew McIntyre once he eliminated Colossus.
Ray and WWE games always make my day
1:10:33 gollum looks better here than in his own game.
1:34:50 textbook apex predator behavior: isolate the target, wear it out, and pounce once it’s tired
12:39 why did I think that Bubble Bass was going to hit colossus over the head with fox like he was a bat lol
2:12:28 I spit out my drink laughing from the image of Snoop Dogg giving Shaggy such an enthusiastic hi-five
so, for anyone curious:
The move that both Lil Mac as well as Goku Black use when they put their hands besides their opponents head is from the manga and anime series "Fist of the Northstar".
The main character Kenshiro used that manouver a few times.Basically, in universe, Kenshiro can use his own energy to overcharge or control the opponent by touching specific spots on their bodies, and, with that move, he basically lets them explode instead of just going bananas like here.
Isn't that exactly what he uses in the classic Omae wa Mou Shindeiru meme?
8:02 my god Colossus is unstoppable.
I laughed for ten straight minutes when I heard, "This is The heartless of Colossus."
Poor Elmo, he walked into the wrong neighbourhood. And got wrecked. Absolutely phenomenal video ray,truly entertaining
2:53:59 best damn part. I wanna see Goku Black vs Gigachad. Characters I wanna see.
Deku from My Hero
Naruto
Shredder from TMNT
Vegeta from DBZ
Mace Windu from Star Wars
The 4 turtles from TMNT
Patrick Star from Spongebob
Donald Trump
And lastly Jimmy Neutron.
19:34 Joe Biden's relatively brief, but chaotic stint in this match was a highlight
First was new Cursed Halo and now this!
Thank you Ray, you're awesome
I just spent 2 days watching all the 2K22 vods. Perfect timing. Thanks Ray
Elmo getting abused and somehow winning needs to be a highlight for the July Comp! 🤣
2:57:05 That's my President! o7
Hey Ray, long time youtube frog since the RT days. I actually worked on WWE 2K23! It's my first job/credits in the game industry, and I'm so happy to see you playing it!
colossus being this years iron makes so much sense
I love how at 1:38:13 Elmo's hand looks like it's Darth Maul's on the loading screen
oh good, i can use this vod to know who wins so i can win a bunch of gamerscore in the predictions
Someone needs to make Ray, Matt and Jeremy so we can have a 6-man tag match with team Ahwol...
Ray needs to do a tournament with a bunch of TH-camrs, including himself.
Agree. I just re-watched the first 2K22 vod before starting this one, and Andy got fucking robbed in the Rumble. Would love see him win something.
Wow was just laughing my ass off to Charlie hitting Batman in the nuts in the vod for the 2k22 game and then this, great stuff
3:46:47 - Idk if I'd call R-Truth an 'interesting wrestler' considering his whole act was pretending to be mentally unstable? Like his whole act was that he had a crew of invisible children following him
Would love for Stats Guy to show up in the comments and give us a breakdown of the matches and the wrestler's performances
"this is the ultimate showdown" plays through my head every time ray does these
great vid, that joe biden moonsault was so funny, glad ray decided to continue the wwe games
Confused Joe Biden is an absolutely perfect example of what makes these streams special.
I doubt you'll see this, but if you want to see an actual War Games match, AEW is about to have one tomorrow (Wednesday) night!
They call it a Blood & Guts match because WWE owns the trademark, it's featuring the Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC and Konosuke Takeshita) vs The Elite (Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks, Adam Page and Kota Ibushi)
Should be a good time!
Thumbnail is so confusing, if they're just going to have the title text and nothing else, why have so much blank space to the right of it?
3:30:15 I know he didn't react to it, but the back to back to back clotheslines had me rolling!
Rumble elimination count:
Goku Black - 4 Winner
Giga Chad - 4
Colossus - 3.5
Bubble Bass - 3.5
Critikal - 3
All-Star Zom - 2
Fox - 2
Jimmy Cricket - 1
Zangief - 1
Dream - 1
Bomberman - 1
Onion - 1
Green Knight -1
Strange choice for a thumbnail, having the title zoomed out and to the left while leaving the right completely empty
Ghostface getting fucking walloped dummy style was so fucking funny and lore accurate
w33dGOD!!! is the best thing to come of this. so much lore for our afro'ed man
If possible, you should download a Hank Hill to fight Steve-O for who is the better alert
Holy shit the bellow i let out when Shaggy choked out Mr Libido lmao actually teared up
Elmo the goddamn cerebral assassin! The pin artist! Do not turn your back on Elmo!
I found out that Undertaker retired, and then that Sting is still going strong... after coming back. It's wild..
Logan Paul is a real wrestler now...
1:00:29 foreshadowing.
YES TIME FOR SOME WRAAAAAAAAAAAAAASTLING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally I've been waiting to see Ray play this
Not two minutes after a Yakuza tat pops up and the controller times out from inactivity, the Yakuza Lore runs deep
So many of the highlights for this game are going to include "and colossus is still in!"
The smile this just put across my face. Thank you ray. It also could be the weed I just hit
Damn, uploaded 30 seconds ago. Always fun watching Ray do some WWE shenanagins.
1:53:47 ray happy
Only caught the final match of the livestream but it's crazy seeing all these characters from other media who shouldn't be in this roster, oh and Logan Paul too.😒
Couldn't ask on stream so now; "Who is Wario's favourite all-time wrestler?"
Wahoo McDaniel
I haven’t laughed this hard or long in a very long time. That War Games match was pure cinema.
Man I just went on an achievement hunter spree today and learned about all the shit that’s happened with rooster teeth layoffs and Ryan etc. and I’m so grateful that Ray is still out here killing it. 🔥💯
Ray: What the fuck is Joe doing?
Me: Not the first time someone's asked that...
I don’t see anything in the thumbnail. Is upload wrong?
Only 20 minutes in, but dang, colossus is tryin to be purple guy. Same strong start. Didnt purple guy survive till contestant 19 or 20?
Elmo laying down at 1:33:35 is a mood
these WWE streams are always solid gold
2:38
Pretty sure this is what a new Scary Movie would look like.
All I can imagine when watching this is Ray off-stream looking through all the characters he can download and laughing at all of them.
It's a shame that the AEW game's Character Creator is such dog water. I think Ray would have gotten a kick out of some of the weirder parts of it.
The entire game is dog water. Controls are clunky, the character models looks like action figures smothered in Vaseline, the pin system is horrendous, there’s barley any game modes.
These are always so much fun
YT comment time stamp bookmark
23:09
Simon would give this a golden up
The first two matches were absolutely lore accurate for Goku Black. The dude is unstoppable.
2:05:41
1:32:39
I was a little confused until you explained it. I feel really silly now lmao.
Already can't wait for the next part of this, have watched like 4 times already
Random idea but maybe this could be the new mascot tournament. Instead of throwing the pig skin they throw hands instead
Wish they allowed men and women to fight. Used to be able to do it in older games
I'm certain there's a mod that'll let you do that.
Dam these videos are amazing, can't wait for part 2
Top tier, solid and funny Content as always, but interesting choice with the Thumbnail. Only the of center W2K23, don´t know about that with clickability, but you are the pros here, not me
Shaggy just full choking him always gets me
The beginning royal ruumble… looks like we shave a 2020 Brock Lesnar Rumble Situation
Hi Ray I love your videos
Time for another edition of: Me googling all these references that I don't understand.
Smh, I can't believe 2K didn't put a famous wrestler on the video game cover for WWE 2K23.
Colossus is still my champ even if he didn’t win
"Oh no Emlo, not again!"
I'll take "Phrases I never expected to hear Ray say" for $500.
These matches are how I picture Cosplays at Cons go now, as someone who doesn't Cosplay I cannot confirm that to be true
I'm sad that the Mr. Mime doesn't have an attire 2 that is his shiny form
At the very least, Siegmeyer eliminated his true nemesis, the Gigachad. I’m happy with that.
So it's cannon in the W33DGOD!! lore that he is a member of the Yakuza right?
Always liked this series that Ray does. But I still think it would be fun to see him watch his mods in an elimination chamber or hell in a cell. Even though it wouldn’t be allowed I just want to watch Jamie stun Spencer.
for the next one may we get a all out past/ present president all-out fight
“There are a lot of good creators”- Ray
And then there Arin & Dan from Game Grumps.
Next time I hope you get a stable going with Shaggy, Snoop Dogg and W33DGOD!!!
They seem to have... certain things in common.
Love em or hate em, that Brandon is a content machine lol
Colossus confirmed to be played by Brock Lesnar.
