Please rephrase this using the names of wrestling moves.

I've been thinking about this. I can't do it in wrestling moves, but I can do it in wrestling storylines!
Overkill is basically Seth Rollins. We had a pretty good thing going on with the Shield Payday 2, and everyone was happy. Winning awards, extremely successful when compared to other groups. But then, Rollins decided he could do better. He didn't need to stand by his words anymore, so he sold out. Smashed their fans in the back with a steel chair (available for 5.99 or your regional equivalent) and decided that money was better than loyalty or integrity. As such, the betrayed have gone on a tear to try and destroy their betrayer. We'll, uh, get back to you on that.
Tripwire is like Daniel Bryan. See, Tripwire had a really successful game in Killing Floor, and Red Orchestra's got a pretty dedicated fanbase to boot. These were basically the Bryan Danielson days, but then he got brought up to the big leagues. PS4 launch? You got it. Coverage across E3 and all sorts of gaming blogs? Right on. Killing Floor got some criticism for the DLC practices and things that didn't seem necessary, but hey, it was a quality game. People loved it. It was successful. And then we got Killing Floor 2, and... Our champion went out injured. It was a B+, at best, when Early Access arrived, but playing it pointed out there wasn't anything there. All hope wasn't lost, though! There were updates, and it seemed like we had the true shapings of a second run on our hands... And then it went out injured again. Cash shop added. Hopes dashed. We might never see Killing Floor wrestle again. A dark day.
Fallout 4 is similar to The Ryback. Big, lacking depth, clearly unpolished and has a tendency to accidentally break things when it's running. Should probably have been kept in NXT to finish bug fixing before being shoved down our throats as the best thing ever.
Star Citizen is CM Punk. You'll never fucking see it again. (Mostly kidding about this one.)
