WWE and 2K Open Paid Club WWE Vote to Pick a WWE 2K27 Cover Superstar

Gating the first-ever cover vote behind a $99 Club WWE membership directly monetizes fan input, elevates rising performers, ties the result to the WWE 2K27 rollout.

Overview

  • WWE and 2K announced the fan vote on Sept. 10 and voting opens Friday, Sept. 11 exclusively through the Club WWE platform, with each registered member allowed one vote.
  • The eight finalists on the ballot are Bron Breakker, Fatal Influence, Je’Von Evans, Oba Femi, Penta, Sol Ruca, Stephanie Vaquer and Trick Williams.
  • U.S. Club WWE membership is advertised at $99 per year and is required to cast a vote, making participation a paid, gated fan perk rather than open public voting.
  • WWE says the winner will be revealed in early 2027 and will appear on an edition of WWE 2K27; the announcement’s wording and reporting indicate the fan-selected Superstar may appear on a variant cover rather than the primary ad-facing cover.
  • The ballot favors younger or recently ascendant performers, a shift from past covers that featured established headliners or legends, and the game’s official release date for WWE 2K27 has not been announced.
