“If you win the contest and beat me, AJ Styles, inWWE 2K19, you could win a million dollars.” continued Styles. “That’s right. You heard me right. $1 million. Let’s do this. I’m calling it theWWE 2K19Million Dollar Challenge. All entrants can participate on the PS4 and the Xbox One.”
The rulesappear basic enough, contestants will first have to beat a yet-to-be-announced new mode withinWWE 2K19and then submit a video explaining why they deserve a chance to virtual manhandle AJ Styles. Following this, four players will be chosen to grapple it out in a semi-final inWWE 2K19, with the winner going on to face AJ Styles inWWE 2K19.
