When the WWE 2K25 MyRISE story culminates in one last gasp to save the company from Mutiny, you'll have to decide where to turn for help. You can recruit WWE legends, indie wrestlers, or past 2K MyPlayers in order to help reclaim the WWE.

This is one of the last big decisions in MyRISE, and it arrives pretty abruptly, which is likely to leave some players a little stumped regarding what option they should pick. Before making your choice, here's a detailed overview of the exact WWE 2K25 unlockables that are up for grabs depending on your decision.

You should choose "Recruit WWE Legends" to help you reclaim the company from Mutiny. Three different legends for the WWE 2K25 roster are among the unlockables on deck at this decision branch.

When you choose "Recruit WWE Legends" to help reclaim the WWE, you will unlock:

  • Attribute Points
  • Wrestling Convention (Arena)
  • Alundra Blayze (Roster)
  • DDP (Roster)
  • Scott Steiner '03 (Roster)
  • Big Poppa Pump - MyRISE (MyFACTION Reward)

Making this pick nets you three new characters for the core game roster, a new arena, and a solid MyFACTION card. These roster additions also unlock new music, moves, attire pieces, and entrance motions for use in creations. It's also the most entertaining choice, as several legends recorded voice-overs for this story.

They're also packed with several MyFACTION rewards that will help fill out your collection in that mode.
