The name Chris Benoit still sends shivers up and down the spines of wrestling fans everywhere. In June of 2007, the former WWE champion murdered his wife and young son in their home before hanging himself, and soon thereafter the WWE decided basically to expunge his records and pretend he never existed.
Fans, however, do not forget, and in WWE 2K15 have been using the game’s face mapping feature to import him into the game.
2K Games and WWE do not seem amused, and are banning users who upload Benoit to the game’s online platform:
@corybundick I just checked your account. You were banned because you uploaded a Chris Benoit face to community creations.
— Marcus Stephenson (@stephensonmc) December 4, 2014The rule against this is likely buried somewhere deep in their user agreement, so by playing online you’re agreeing to whatever terms 2K Games and WWE want. Just be grateful this hasn’t led to a “Human Cent-iPad” situation.
