Momentum can shift quickly in a WWE match, and Paybacks are one of the best ways to shift momentum in WWE 2K24. Here are the best Paybacks in WWE 2K24 and how to use them.
What are the best Paybacks in WWE 2K24?
While all Paybacks can give advantages in matches, some are better than others. Paybacks that can result in DQ can inflict a lot of damage or leave the opponent stunned for a while, but the risk is usually not worth the reward.
The best Paybacks are as follows:
- Resiliency
- Iron Jaw
- Freeze
- Comeback
Resiliency is one of the best Paybacks because it can save you from losing a match if used in the right time. Iron Jaw can be a game-changer, as it can remove stun, which is very important if your opponent has a Super Finisher stock available while you are stunned. Freeze can be used to allow yourself to use a Finisher or escape from danger. The Comeback Payback is great because it inflicts damage and if you complete the mini-game correctly, will leave you in a position to dish out more moves.
How to use Paybacks in WWE 2K24
Paybacks are moves that will shift the momentum of a match by doing damage or leaving the opponent in a dazed state. Each Superstar can have two Paybacks equipped at a time. To perform a Payback, you must have a Finisher stock available and position the opponent in the right spot.
