‘WWE 2K22’ partners with Machine Gun Kelly

You’re going to be able to piledrive and chokeslam Machine Gun Kelly in the new WWE 2K22 DLC if you want to.

2K has announced that they’re partnering with Machine Gun Kelly, aka Colson Baker, as the official Executive Soundtrack Producer for WWE 2K22.

Machine Gun Kelly has been an integral part of the WWE family for more than a decade including performances at WrestleMania and Tribute to the Troops, soundtracking our premium live events with his music, and making frequent storyline appearances on WWE programming over the years,” said Neil Lawi, Senior Vice President and General Manager, WWE Music Group.

Not only do they showcase their musical skills at these events, but they also show how they can take a hit. I think they might be a good fit for WWE 2K22.
