Enter caption

2K studios have scheduled the released of WWE 2K19 on 9th October 2018. They have started releasing the overall ratings of various superstars in the game. So far they have released the overall ratings of 30 superstars across RAW, SmackDown, NXT and 205 live. Some of the ratings are justifiable, whereas some of them did not make any sense whatsoever. In this list, we are analysing the latter part and compiling the names of all the superstars who are rated more or less than what they deserve.


#5. Triple H - 89

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Triple H is a legend. He is a 14-time world champion, multiple royal rumble winner, king of the ring winner, and he has achieved almost everything there is to be. The statement that Triple H does not deserve 89 is coming from a perspective view.

In WWE 2K18, both Triple H and The Undertaker were rated 89 - a well-deserved rating for two legends who were in the twilight of their career. After the release of WWE 2K18, Triple H competed in three televised matches whereas taker competed in two.

Triple H was a part of the RAW men's team in Survivor Series 2017, he paired up with his wife Stephanie McMahon to take on Kurt Angle and the debuting Ronda Rousey and he also squared off against John Cena at the Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia. On the other hand, the Deadman competed in singles matches against John Cena at Wrestlemania and Rusev at the Greatest Royal Rumble in a casket match.

While Triple H lost two of his three matches, at Wrestlemania and the Greatest Royal Rumble, the phenom won both his matches in this period. He defeated John Cena comprehensively and defeated Rusev even with the interference of Aiden English.

Since Undertaker is rated only 87 in WWE 2K19, one can only wonder how Triple H, who had a worse record than the phenom in this period can have a higher rating of 89.

#4. Braun Strowman - 89

Braun
Braun Strowman won the Greatest Royal Rumble.

Braun Strowman was rated 88 last year. He has done some awesome stuff during the period under consideration for WWE 2K game ratings. He has won the greatest Royal Rumble, money in the bank briefcase and the RAW tag team championship at Wrestlemania 34 teaming up with a 10-year-old. He also broke the records for most eliminations in an elimination chamber match and most eliminations in a Royal Rumble match. His win to loss ratio in this period is amazing. Only Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns pinned Strowman in his career. The monster among men definitely deserves a 90 in WWE 2K19.

#3. Demon Balor - 87

De
Demon Balor made a return at this year's SummerSlam.

Although Finn Balor is no longer protected, his demon persona is still incredibly protected. He uses his alter ego only on special occasions, but makes full use of it. In WWE 2K18. Demon Balor was rated 92. However, a reduction of 5 ratings is uncalled for since the Irish superstar has not lost a single match in the main roster as the demon.

Demon Balor scored wins against Bray Wyatt at Summerslam 2017, AJ Styles at No Mercy 2017 and basically squashed Baron Corbin at Summerslam 2018.

#2. Carmella - 80

With all due reverence, Carmella is not one of the best in-ring performers. But from a kayfabe point of view, she has pinned both Asuka and Charlotte twice and carried the SmackDown Live women's championship for more than 100 days. Her reign is the third biggest SmackDown women's championship reign, behind Charlotte Flair (147) and Naomi(140).

However, her rating is just 80, behind all the women mentioned above. Asuka is 84, Charlotte is 85 and Naomi is 82.

#1. Daniel Bryan - 88

The Miz
The Miz knocked Bryan out with a brass knuckle to win at SummerSlam 2018.

Daniel Bryan is one of the most popular superstars on the roster. His yes movement was so popular that WWE had to change their plans for Wrestlemania 30. However, the current version of Daniel Bryan does not deserve an 88.

WWE cleared Bryan to return to in-ring action this February. His return match at Wrestlemania saw him kick out of 2 finishers and win the match. But after that, he hasn't had many wins under his belt.

Most of his matches after his return ended in Disqualifications. He lost to Rusev at SmackDown and Miz at Summerslam. He lost all his last 3 PPV matches. An 85-86 would have been sufficient for the current version Bryan.
