WWE 2K26 Ringside Pass Season 2 Is Live With Demolition, Kelly Kelly, and More
WWE 2K26‘s Ringside Pass Season 2 is here, and 2K is bringing some long-overdue additions to the roster.
The headliners this season are four franchise debuts. Ax, Smash, and Crush of Demolition are finally playable in a WWE 2K game for the first time ever. All three members are included with a combined 27 new moves and taunts, including the Decapitation finisher. Both two-man and three-man tag entrances are supported, so you can run them as the classic duo or the full trio. The timing is perfect considering Ax and Smash are going into the WWE Hall of Fame this Friday during WrestleMania weekend.
Kelly Kelly also makes her WWE 2K franchise debut. She was apparently one of the most requested additions to the game (I doubt it), and she brings 8 new moves with her, including the K2 finisher. Between her and Demolition, that’s 35 new moves and taunts added to the game this season.
A big quality of life change starting with Season 2 is that new DLC characters are now unlockable immediately at Tier 1 with the Ringside Premium Pass. No more grinding through tiers to get the characters you actually paid for. If you installed the game before April 15, you also get 20 free tier skips to speed things along.
On the free track, all players can unlock an updated Oba Femi Sapphire Persona at Tier 40 based on his Saturday Night’s Main Event look from December 2025, complete with his hair-down hairstyle that fans had been asking for.
The Premium track goes in a wild direction this season with three Ruby rarity Personas pulled straight from the Kairos wasteland setting.Yes, Borderlands-inspired personas: Rhea Ripley gets a “Ripper Queen” Persona, CM Punk becomes “Ripper,” and Becky Lynch transforms into “Lilith.” Each one comes with unique entrance music and animations that you can assign to other Superstars or your created characters. There are 19 customizable CAS parts included, so if you want to slap those giant mechanical arms from Rhea Ripley’s entrance onto your own creation, you can. The Ripper mask is fully customizable too, with color and image options.
The Premium track also includes Stephanie McMahon’s black corset and thigh-high boots from WrestleMania 32 as CAS parts, a set of Ripple Junction shirts for Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio, and Rhea Ripley, an OTC1 shirt, customizable fur boots, and two new moves called Amethyst Storm and Base Drop.
Season 2 launches alongside Patch 1.08, which adds a new Alpha Academy trios entrance for Maxxine Dupri, Akira Tozawa, and Otis.
Demolition in a WWE 2K game is something that should have happened years ago. Glad to see it finally happening, and the Hall of Fame timing makes it even better.
