CM Punk Reference In WWE 2K17 (Video), Rusev Statement Over His Ranking, WWE SuperCard Update

- As seen in the video above, WWE 2K17 includes a reference to CM Punk that the developers apparently forgot to remove. As Chris Jericho heads down the ramp, Michael Cole says, "Here's a guy who believes he's the best in the world at what he does." Jerry Lawler replied, "I'm willing to bet CM Punk disagrees with that statement, but if that's how Jericho feels, then good for him. He's confident. I like it!"

- 2K today announced availability of SummerSlam Fusions for WWE SuperCard. SummerSlam Fusion cards enable fans to move up the ranks and improve their decks across events and Exhibition Mode. The SummerSlam Fusions roster showcases both active and former WWE NXT champions, including current WWE Superstars Bo Dallas, Sami Zayn and Big E, as well as WWE NXT Superstars Asuka, Shinsuke Nakamura and Samoa Joe. You can check out Cat Daddy Games' blog post detailing today's announcement at this link.

- As noted, Rusev and Lana recently gave a first look at the special WWE NXT collector's edition of WWE 2K17, which you can check out here. In the video, Rusev got upset when he learned that he has an 86 rating, while Sami Zayn has an 87. Rusev today issued this statement to 2K:
