WWE 2K26 is set to be available on all platforms starting on March 13 and has already been revealing various stars who will be part of the video game.
While several names have been revealed for the game, there could be new stars announced as DLC talent for 2K26.
Whether it be legends, NXT or TNA Wrestling talents, these stars will add a lot of value to the WWE 2K26 video game.
Here are seven new WWE 2K26 DLC stars to be potentially added to the roster.
7. Matt Cardona
On the January 2 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, Matt Cardona made his official return to WWE and became a member of the blue brand’s roster.
The former Zack Ryder has become a regular part of WWE TV and the SmackDown since then.
This should lead to Cardona becoming one of the DLC talent part of the upcoming WWE 2K26 video game.
Whether it be as his current persona or even an alternate attire and theme music for being Zack Ryder, it would make sense for the newest SmackDown star to be part of the game.

6. Arianna Grace
Arianna Grace has mostly been presented as a valet in the corner of her fiance, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo on WWE NXT TV.
However, Grace stepped out of the shadow of Stacks and her father Santino Marella when she defeated Lei Ying Lee to become the new TNA Knockouts World Champion at No Surrender 2026.
Now holding gold, Grace has been mentioned by the WWE 2K community as someone that fans want to see in the upcoming video game.
Being part of a TNA DLC pack, Grace could be introduced in the game as the reigning TNA Knockouts World Champion.

5. Mike Santana
Speaking of reigning TNA World Champions, Mike Santana regained the title when he defeated Frankie Kazarian on the January 15 AMC premiere of TNA Thursday Night IMPACT.
Santana has been a standard bearer for TNA Wrestling since returning to the promotion in 2024.
Now sitting atop of the company, it would make sense for WWE to highlight TNA by introducing Santana in the new video game.
With a potential TNA Wrestling DLC, Santana should be front and center in his first appearance on a video game with an addition to the roster of WWE 2K26.

4. Frankie Kazarian
Another TNA Wrestling star who would make a lot of sense as part of the roster on WWE 2K26 is Frankie Kazarian.
The former TNA World Champion is someone who has been one of the representatives of the company on WWE TV.
Most recently, Kazarian appeared backstage on the February 23 edition of Monday Night Raw as part of the AJ Styles tribute on the program.
Kazarian being in his first video game for the company would be a huge honor for TNA and himself as well as add a lot of nostalgia for long time fans of that promotion in the WWE 2K26 video game.

3. The Hardy Boyz (Matt & Jeff Hardy)
One final addition to a potential TNA Wrestling DLC pack for WWE 2K26 would have to be The Hardy Boyz.
As part of the TNA roster, The Hardys have made their return to WWE where they captured the NXT Tag Team Championship in 2025.
Matt and Jeff Hardy are also widely regarded as one of the greatest tag teams in WWE history.
With their history in WWE and TNA, this feels like a no-brainer to add to the 2K26 lineup and presents the chance for fans to make some dream matches featuring The Hardy Boyz as well as other legendary duos.

2. Royce Keys
At WWE Royal Rumble 2026, Royce Keys made his debut with the company as part of the Men’s Royal Rumble Match.
The former AEW World Trios Champion has not been seen on WWE television in the weeks since the event, but he should make his presence felt soon.
To give him his first appearance on a video game for the company, Keys feels like a logical option to be a DLC featured in the upcoming WWE 2K26.
Whether it be part of a new superstars pack or on his own, Keys could be introduced to video game fans with this year’s iteration from the WWE 2K series.

1. Chris Jericho
Over the past year, there has been speculation surrounding Chris Jericho’s pro wrestling future.
With his AEW contract expiring soon, Jericho seems likely to return to WWE based on recent reports.
The first ever AEW World Champion’s deal is currently frozen, which might make a comeback to WWE a little further out than many fans expected.
Once he is back in the fold, fans could see Jericho return to video game form as a DLC in the WWE 2K26 further down the line.
