Kick out of three high-intensity pins on Legend difficulty (Play Mode vs AI).

How to unlock the Nerves of Steel achievement in WWE 2K23 - Definitive Guide

The description is very vague / misleading. You need to change the pin mini game to timed for this to work. What the game considers a "high intensity pin" is when the meter on the timed pin mini game shakes a little bit. And legend difficulty of course.

This is very easy to set up and complete as you only need to do three total, not three in one match.

One on one, normal match. Pick any two wrestlers (yours preferably someone with high pin escspe), then press Y to go into match options.

Click custom match rules, and on the 3rd screen labeled "match setting" set it to 3 finishers at the start and low default health.

Start the match and let the AI hit you with a finisher. Kick out and repeat. If they pin you, just select rematch to jump right back in with the same settings saved. As soon as you kick out of your third pin the achievement will pop.

I’ve kicked out of about 4 or 5 now, using resiliency and no pop. It hasn’t been in one match obviously, so not sure what’s going on with this one.

I've tried this multiple times and I cant pop it. I'm starting to think every achievement is broken and buggy in some way

This is a great solution. Also, I HIGHLY ADVISE changing the pin minigame settings in the options so that the movement of the things is set to 0, and the bar thickness is set to 100. Makes it easier.

Was extremely easy using the above comment. I used John Cena against the Rock and kicked out of all three of his one after the after without starting a new match.

I haven't been able to get this to pop. I used Cena vs. Rock after adjusting the sliders and its not triggering

Done it probably 10 times now

The way i got this was after setting the difficulty to Legend i went to iron man match then set for 15 mins you can choose whatever time you want

then choose your people

then go to custom match rules and set health to low and finisher to 3
then have the other wrestler hit you with their finisher
then kick out 3 times

Make Sure to Have the Timed Pin Meter and NOT the button mash option
enjoy

I think I figured it out. You have to keep the pin kick out setting to the timed bar. It won't work with the button mashing one. It's also cumulative so you don't have to do it all in one match. The resiliency option works too so I just used Cena.
