How to perform a finisher in WWE 2K23

Being able to perform a finisher in WWE 2K23 is essential if you want to win any match. The finishing move inflicts a lot of damage on your opponent, making it harder for him to beat the three count.

With WWE 2K23 out now, it's imperative you know how to deliver a good finisher. It will be especially useful in harder matches, such as title matches, or Fatal 4-Way.

So, without further ado, let's see how to perform a finisher in WWE 2K23.

How To Perform a Finisher in WWE 2K23

The finisher is the strongest weapon a WWE superstar has in their arsenal. It's perfect to put away your opponent and secure the win.

However, in the majority of cases, finishing moves are not available at the beginning of the match. To earn their finisher, wrestlers need to fill their finisher meter.

You will be able to fill the finisher meter of your superstar by performing moves and taunting. After doing your signature move, you will immediately earn a finisher.

Then, to execute your finisher, press R2 + Square on PlayStation, or RT + A on Xbox.

Be aware that most superstars have two finishers. The position from where you perform the finisher might chance the finishing move.

So, it's always good to check what is the finisher of your superstar, and how you have to be positioned to execute it.

To do that, press pause, and choose the moves tab. There, you will find everything you need to know about your superstar finisher.

In WWE 2K23, some wrestlers have a finisher that can only be performed from the top rope, while others need to be running to execute their devastating finisher.

After performing a finisher, be sure to go for a pin on your opponent. But be aware that there are opponents that might kick out from your pin attempt after a finisher.

Against stronger opponents such as Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, and The Rock, you will need to perform two or more finishers to grab the win.

However, you will be able to come out victorious against most opponents with just one finisher.

There are plenty of finishing moves in WWE 2K23, with all of them being very strong. So, be sure to master how to perform a finisher in WWE 2K23 as fast as possible.
