“I hear the Battle Cry, Under the Devil’s Sky, I hear the Battle Cry, Under the Devil’s Sky” These are lyrics to one of All Elite Wrestling’s Executive Vice President’s Kenny Omega also known as “The Cleaner” also one of the greatest pro wrestlers on the planet. With every wrestling company, comes the want of a game for said promotion. During the “Monday Night Wars” between World Championship Wrestling and the then, World Wrestling Federation came a renaissance of wrestling games from AKI, Acclaim, Yuke’s, and countless more. With the dismal <\/a>response to 2K and Visual Concepts’ WWE 2k20<\/em> last year, and the launch of a competitor to World Wrestling Entertainment in the form of All Elite Wrestling led by Kenny Omega, Matt and Nick Jackson, and Cody Rhodes; fans who have gone from WWE to AEW want to see a video game from the company. Well, you are in luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a tease for something happening with AEW and video games so earlier today EVP Kenny Omega opened the video in a Steve Jobs way appearance and all, he cited the highs the company has reached and thanked the fans who have supported the company. He then revealed the following image in his PowerPoint presentation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He went on to say that he wanted to “give the wrestling fans the game they want, and the game they deserve.” He name-dropped NBA Jam<\/em>, NFL Blitz<\/em>, and Ken Griffey Jr’s Home Run Derby<\/em> as what he wants the games to be like. After showing “concept footage” of him and World Champion Jon Moxley in a very pixelated video, he said that the fans want games like No Mercy and Virtual Pro Wrestling. He then went from the “Concept Footage” to the actual concept footage with the announcement that the game will be on current and last-generation consoles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
