Kevin Nash did a Q&A session after a screening of "nWo: The Revolution" at Hollywood Boulevard Cinema in Woodridge, IL this weekend and when asked about 2K15 he said:

The Diesel character will be in WWE 2K15 and Jay Lethal just finished filming all of Nash's moves and entrance for the game.

I wonder if they still have the usual indy team that mo-caps for them, Lethal was one of them, I know Sonjay Duty and Mike Mondo were also.

Yup, just found a few more...

"The IMDB website has credited

Austin Aries, Claudio Castagnoli ,

Colt Cabana, Paul London , and

Joey Ryan with doing the motion

capture for the WWE Raw vs.

Smackdown 2011 video game."

Jay mo-capping Nash's moves?! :/

What's the problem? He can do them just as good.

 

 

I don't think the issue is whether or not Lethal can do the moves well, but rather that someone Jay's size may not do them the same way as someone of Nash's size. I'm not saying I feel that way, just explaining previous concern. I'll wait to actually see anything before making any judgment.

They would be better off if a bigger guy on the roster did the Jackknife, but it really doesn't concern me unless I decide to use that move for my personal caws. I do understand the concern in a way.

Not surprised he's in now that Punk/Cena's feud is announced for 2K Showcase and will probably feature the Nash interference at Summer Slam '11.

I hope jay lethal did the corner knee strikes and the corner elbow strikes, that always seems to be missing from his moveset

No.. the Back elbow is wrong, and there is no Corner Knee strike at all.  It's been missing since SVR10.  Trust me, WWEGames are my life so i know.  I'm referring to the corner knee strikes he was doing from 98-2003 where he'd do 2 then do the camera measure up gesture, then the suck it taunt and then do the last back elbow.  If you're gonna do it, do it right.  But right now even if he has the one from 2k14 and gets the corner knee strike in i'll be happy.  Plus they said lethal did all is moves so that'd be Corner back elbow, corner knee strike, Snake Eyes, Big Boot Side Slam and Jacknife.  So i wonder if he's getting all new moves

I also read somewhere that Nash would refuse entry into the WWE HOF if he was to be inducted as Diesel. Kinda strange considering that Hall was ok going in as Razor...

well to be fair, he really did more as nash than diesel anyway.  His wcw stuff as Nash, his 02-03 stuff as Nash and the 11-12 stuff as Nash

I don't understand the issue before with someone Jay Lethal's height mo-capping for Kevin Nash. The human skeleton and muscles are the same regardless height, with the exception of "little people" and the massively tall (they can suffer from bent bones, scoliosis, etc) that can make their movements unique and near impossible to replicate without the same irregularities. Kevin Nash is just tall, he's 6' 10" according to wikipedia, the only issue with his body that affects his movement are his dodgy knees. There's no reason Jay Lethal couldn't mo-cap for him, wrestlers like him have mo-capped the entire roster for the entire series. The wrestlers don't mo-cap themselves, the wrestlers don't have time for it, and the money required would be huge.

 

These performances are also hand tweaked by animators. Jeff and Matt Hardy did the mo-cap for the entire roster for WWF Attitude, and the animation in that game is terrible. It's all in the animators.

i don't mind jay lethal doing the moves/entrance at all, as long as the corner back elbow strikes with theatrics and corner knee strikes are in that's all i mostly care about.  The jacknife looked fine to me the last time they reanimated it but maybe it'll look better

Nice to hear Diesel is in, I wonder if it will be the Bret/Diesel feud, would be nice to see some old ppv arenas othe than old school manias.

Only a few people can do the Jackknife correctly. It's not a normal powerbomb.

Lethal does a great job doing moves just like the greats did.

Not sure what part Diesel character will play seeing 2K mode doesn't have anything to do with it, unless of course, as Kevin Nash during 2003..
