In the recent WWE 2K26 Ringside Report, developers also introduced a Gauntlet match that'll give you rewards for the Showcase Mode. If you do not fancy living through hours of history and what-if matches, you can instead play an optional Gauntlet match.

Players can choose to face 20 consecutive opponents either as CM Punk or AJ Lee. Beat them all in one go, and you can get all Showcase Mode rewards. Failing to do so will mean you'll have to start all over again. 

The rewards for Showcase Mode include:

  • Legends
  • Alternate Attires
  • Managers
  • Championships
  • Arenas

You can check the full Ringside Report on the Showcase Mode below.
