To put an opponent on the announce table in WWE 2K25, position them beside the desk and press Right Stick up on PlayStation or Xbox. Then climb onto the table and use a compatible finisher when the game allows it. If an opponent leaning against the desk cannot be attacked, remove the table cover and try again.
Put your opponent on the announce table
- Move the opponent to the announce desk at ringside.
- Stand close enough for the table-placement action, then press Right Stick up to lift the opponent onto it. The official WWE 2K25 manual documents this input for PlayStation; a cross-platform controls guide also lists it for Xbox.
- Climb onto the table, then try a compatible finisher. The practical sequence is to get the opponent onto the desk first and perform the finisher from the table when the game permits it.
The finisher may depend on the wrestlers’ positions and the selected wrestler’s moveset. If the expected move does not trigger, follow the on-screen prompt rather than assuming every wrestler can perform the same table-breaking action.

Controls by platform
| Platform | Lift opponent onto table | Where to confirm |
|---|---|---|

| Xbox | Right Stick up, as listed by a cross-platform controls guide | Check the “Lift Opponent onto Table” command in the Xbox manual for the control display applicable to your Xbox version. |
| PC | Not established here; do not assume a keyboard key | Check the in-game controls screen or your configured keyboard bindings. PC controls can be configured and differ from console controls; the exact table-placement binding is not specified in the available manual excerpt. |
Control labels can vary with input configuration or later patches, so use the displayed command if your setup differs from the default instructions.
If you cannot attack an opponent leaning on the desk
Remove the announce-table cover and try again. 2K Support has documented a reported issue in which an opponent leaning against the announce table could not be attacked unless its cover had been removed. Treat this as a troubleshooting check, not as the explanation for every failed table interaction.
