Alright, so you wanna know how to tag your partner in that wrestling game, WWE 2K23, huh? It ain’t rocket science, I tell ya. My grandson, he plays this all the time, yelling at the TV like a crazy person. I watched him enough to figure it out, and lemme tell you, it’s easier than milkin’ a cow…well, almost.
First off, make sure you’re in a tag team match, you hear? Can’t tag nobody if you’re all by yourself like a lonely ol’ hen. Now, when you’re ready to get your tired butt outta that ring and let your partner do some workin’, you gotta press a button.

Seems like these youngins got all sorts of fancy game machines. Some got that “PlayStation” thingy, others got that “Xbox” contraption. Don’t matter much, the idea’s the same.
- If you’re playin’ on that PlayStation doodad, folks say you gotta hit that “LB” button. Or maybe it’s the “L1” button, them youngins use so many buttons makes my head spin. It’s one of them buttons on the top, near your fingers. Just press it, not too hard, not too soft, like you’re pattin’ a dog, not squishin’ a bug.
- Now, if you got that Xbox thingamajig, it’s probably somethin’ similar. Maybe the same button, maybe not. My grandson, he’s got the PlayStation, so I ain’t too sure ‘bout the Xbox. But I reckon it ain’t gonna be too different. Just try pressin’ them buttons on the top, you’ll figure it out. Young folks these days, they like to make things complicated, but it usually ain’t.
Some folks online, they say you gotta press two buttons at once. Like you’re playin’ the piano or somethin’. But my grandson, he just presses one button. Maybe them other folks is doin’ somethin’ fancy, I dunno. You try both ways, see what works for ya.
And listen here, sometimes things don’t work right off the bat. Like that time my old tractor wouldn’t start. Had to jiggle this, crank that, and finally, she sputtered to life. Same with this game, sometimes. If you can’t tag your partner, maybe you gotta check your game settings. Make sure you ain’t got somethin’ turned off that you shouldn’t. Or maybe you just gotta restart the whole dang thing. Computers, they’re finicky like that.
Now, there’s also this thing called “Universe Mode.” Sounds complicated, right? Well, it kinda is. My grandson, he got stuck on that one too. Said he couldn’t tag nobody. Turns out, he had to go and create a tag team again in the menus. Said he had to back out to the main menu, then it saved, and then it worked. Computers, I tell ya, they’re more trouble than a goat in a garden sometimes.
And if you’re outside the ring, on that little apron part, things might be a bit different. Some folks are sayin’ you gotta hold down a button. Like you’re holdin’ onto a runaway calf. Again, I ain’t too sure ‘bout that, ‘cause my grandson mostly fights inside the ring. He likes to jump off the top rope, silly kid.
So, to sum it up, taggin’ your partner ain’t hard. Press that LB or L1 button on the PlayStation, or somethin’ similar on the Xbox. If it don’t work, fiddle with the settings, restart the game, or make sure your tag team is set up right in that Universe Mode thingy. And if you’re outside the ring, maybe try holdin’ down a button. You’ll figure it out, I reckon. It ain’t harder than churnin’ butter, and even I can do that.
Just remember, don’t go throwin’ your controller at the TV like my grandson when he loses. It’s just a game, y’hear? Have fun with it, and don’t get your britches in a twist. And if all else fails, ask a young person. They seem to know everything about these fancy gadgets these days.
One more thing, make sure your controller is actually connected to your Playstation or Xbox. Sometimes that thing comes unplugged and then nothin’ works right. It’s like tryin’ to drive a car with no gas, you ain’t goin’ nowhere.
Alright, that’s all I got to say about taggin’ in that wrestlin’ game. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my chickens. Them foxes been gettin’ awful bold lately.
