The 10 Best CAW's You Can Download

While 2K won't be releasing a brand new video game this year, that doesn't mean that gamers can't freshen things up with the existing WWE 2K20 video game. A great way gamers can do that is by utilizing the Create-A-Wrestler mode, which allows people to make their own characters, which are often non-WWE Superstars.

Within the Community Creations option, gamers are able to utilize fantastic characters that have been created by other gamers as well. This means that there really are tons of options as to who people can play as, but what are the best CAWs to download right now?

10 Orange Cassidy

Considering the fact that AEW has yet to create a video game, it is no surprise that many fans have created playable versions of the roster. One man who is incredibly popular right now is the laid back Orange Cassidy, and he is a playable character.

This is a great character for people to play, creating dream matches by having WWE Superstars competing against the top AEW wrestler. The CAW really does a great job of looking like him, of course, with the classic thumbs up.

9 Jon Moxley

Speaking of top AEW stars that are available to play as Jon Moxley is another wrestler who has been created. Moxley has a slightly different look now that he is in AEW and it's great to see that within the video game.

It's a much simpler look than what he had during his WWE career, but it is something that audiences love and it allows gamers to still play as the former Shield member.

8 Tessa Blanchard

There's a good chance that by the next time there is a 2K video game, Tessa Blanchard could be a playable character. However, for this game that is not the case, and therefore the only way to work as Blanchard is by using one of the CAW versions of her.

This is a fantastic example of the former IMPACT Wrestling star, with an incredible amount of detail being placed into her in order to make her look as realistic as possible.

7 Iron Man

That's right, it isn't just top wrestling stars that are available to play as on the game, but Marvel superheroes as well. While they don't come with their usual powers, it is certainly a lot of fun to pit the likes of Iron Man up against the WWE heroes.

This version of Iron Man is absolutely superb, with tons of detail being placed into it to make it look as realistic as possible.

6 Will Ospreay

Back to the wrestling, Will Ospreay is another great example of someone who has been created to be part of the game. It showcases that wrestling fans don't just like to push for AEW wrestlers, but also other talents from outside the world of wrestling.

Will Ospreay's in-ring style is just perfectly suited to a video game as he's so creative, and while his move set is certainly of a cruiserweight, this also looks just look him, making it a brilliant creation.

5 Karrion Kross

It isn't just wrestlers from outside the WWE bubble created, as this Karrion Kross CAW proves. He's a new star in WWE and fans didn't waste any time in creating him and making him a playable character.

He's going to be a huge star within the next year so with no video game being released, he is certainly going to become someone that everybody wants to play as.

4 Brian Cage

Just as Karrion Kross made his impact in NXT, Brian Cage did the same thing in AEW, and he has quickly been created on the video game. He's a character that looks fantastic, bringing fans the chance to play as him.

He's a very popular name in wrestling and being able to play as him is something fans want, especially right now while he's a major name in AEW.

3 CM Punk

It isn't really a surprise that CM Punk is a character that is available through the Create A Wrestler mode, as he is one of the most popular WWE Superstars of all time. He's someone fans consistently push for WWE to bring back and someone that many fans have great memories of.

However, because he has been gone from WWE for so long, there are now many dream matches available for Punk which can only be played out on WWE video games, hence why many create him.

2 Chris Jericho

Another top AEW star that people are able to play as within WWE 2K20 as a CAW is Chris Jericho. Of course, because he wasn't with WWE at this point, he's no longer in the game, but Jericho is truly a very popular WWE Superstar so being able to still play as him is great.

There are many different versions of Jericho within the game, from his New Japan painmaker gimmick to his WWE gimmicks. But this version is the most accurate as to how he is right now with AEW, which keeps things fresh.

1 John Morrison

While he might now be part of WWE's roster again, at the release of the video game, John Morrison wasn't, which is why he wasn't part of the roster. However, that didn't stop some fans from creating him, and they certainly did a good job.

The Morrison CAWs are arguably the more realistic looking as well, with some incredible attention to detail being placed into him. Now that he's actively on the WWE roster, there's no doubt plenty of people who want to play as him, and now they can.
