While these WWE wrestlers enjoyed a high rating in WWE 2K24, they're likely to have a lower rating in WWE 2K25.
WWE 2K game ratings change from year to year, and it's always fun to make predictions about them. The game developers rely primarily on kayfabe to assign ratings to superstars. For example, if Zelina Vega, whose rating is 74 in WWE 2K24, wins the WWE Women's Championship, her rating in the next game will likely go way up, somwehre in the 80s.

With that said, the real-life performance of WWE wrestlers this year will influence WWE 2K25 ratings. That way, we can get an idea and dare to predict wrestlers who will have a lower rating in WWE 2K25.
10 Bianca Belair Deservedly Received One Of The Best Ratings Ever
Belair Is The Second-Highest Rated Female Wrestler In WWE 2K24, And Can Only Go Down
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
5 | 95 | 92 |
Bianca Belair has been one of the most dominant WWE wrestlers in the past few years. So, her 95 rating in WWE 2K24 makes sense. Nevertheless, she will have a lower rating in next year's game.
Belair is currently in the tag team division, and it looks like she will be away from the singles title picture for a while. And at some point, Bianca and Jade Cargill will split up, and Bianca is likely going to put Jade over if they have a match. This won't be a dominant year for Bianca, and thus, her rating should be around 92 in WWE 2K25.
9 Bobby Lashley Has Not Been As Dominant As He Once Was
Bobby Lashley Is A Midcarder Again
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
5 | 89 | 86 |
Bobby Lashley had the best moment of his career in 2021, when he was WWE Champion, but since 2023, he has been back in the mid-card. He still looks in top physical condition to be a World Champion, but apparently, Triple H doesn't have big plans for him as a singles star. At least Lashley is still winning matches, and that's why his rating will still be high in WWE 2K25, but it will definitely be below 89.
8 Finn Balor Has Taken A Backseat To His Judgment Day Counterparts
Finn Balor Does Not Stand Out As A Singles Star Anymore
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
8 | 87 | 85 |
Finn Balor has an 87 rating in WWE 2K24, which is perhaps too high considering he hasn't been successful on his own in recent months and his only success was to win the tag team championship alongside Damian Priest.

Which fun WWE 2K24 match types have gamers been spending the most time playing?
Balor is a pretty talented wrestler, but he has fallen short when it comes to winning big matches. Also, this year, Balor has lost 75% of his matches. With that said, we should expect Balor to have a lower rating in the next edition of the game.
7 The Viking Raiders Have Taken A Step Back
The Viking Raiders Are Not A Threat Anymore
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
5 | 79 (Ivar) & 78 (Erik) | 76 (Ivar) & 75 (Erik) |
Erik underwent neck fusion surgery and that is why he has not appeared on television in 2024. Ivar, meanwhile, has been suffering and has been losing time and time again. Without his partner, it seems that Ivar has been exposed and simply cannot excel as a singles star. One injured, and the other losing on a regular basis, the Viking Raiders will most likely have a lower rating in WWE 2K25.
6 Natalya Is An Aging Veteran
Natalya Is In The Twilight Of Her Career
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
10 | 81 | 78 |
Natalya is already a WWE legend and has secured her place in the Hall of Fame, but the years do not pass in vain. She is at the end of her career and her in-ring skills are deteriorating more and more.

Natalya is one of the most experienced wrestlers in WWE today, working for the company since 2007. Natalya's body changed quite a bit over time.
She has lost her agility and her matches are becoming more and more boring. And that is precisely why she has lost ground on the card and lost television time. In addition, since 2022, Natalya has just 33 wins and 122 losses. With that said, there is no doubt that her rating will be lower in WWE 2K25.
5 Main Event Jey Uso Capitalized On His Yeet Popularity
Jey Uso Is Overrated In WWE 2K24
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
9 | 90 | 87 |
Jey Uso has a 90 rating in WWE 2K24, the highest he's ever had in a game. Jey is certainly more over than ever, but he has never won a singles title in his career. Plus, he's never been a phenomenal in-ring performer. With that being said, it's hard to believe that he has a rating of 90. If Jey manages to win a title this year, he may maintain his rating, but it is more likely that in WWE 2K25 his rating will drop by a few points.
4 Raquel Rodriguez Hasn't Been Impactful Due To Her Condition
Raquel Rodriguez Has Not Been As Successful On The Main Roster
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
3 | 86 | 82 |
Raquel Rodriguez is a former NXT Women’s Champion, and she has the potential to win a singles title on the main roster as well. However, she has not been as successful as predicted. She is a three-time Women’s Tag Team Champion, but fans do not care about that. Raquel has not been able to get over as a face, and she has missed several months due to Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. With that said, she should have a lower rating in WWE 2K25.
3 Shinsuke Nakamura Is Another Veteran Hand And Little Else
Nakamura's Threats Always End Up Meaning Nothing
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
7 | 84 | 82 |
Shinsuke Nakamura's promos in Japanese, in which he threatens his opponents, are pretty cool, but that's about it. Nakamura has done nothing but put his opponents over, as he lost his feuds with Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes and, in fact, in 2024, he has a win/loss record of 1-37. If he continues like this, there is no doubt that his rating will be lower in WWE 2K25.
2 Shotzi Has't Made Any Sort Of Impact In WWE
Shotzi Should Be One Of The Lowest Rated Wrestlers In The Game
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
3 | 76 | 73 |
Truth be told, Shotzi is one of the worst wrestlers in WWE today. She has never had a great match and is a sloppy worker. And in terms of kayfabe, she's not a good wrestler either. Her rating in WWE 2K24 is 76, which is very high. But the game developers should correct this next game and assign her a lower rating in WWE 2K25.
1 Roman Reigns Comes Back Down To Earth
Roman Reigns Is Not In God Mode Anymore
WWE 2K Appearances | WWE 2K24 Rating | WWE 2K25 Rating Prediction |
---|---|---|
10 | 97 | 95 |
Roman Reigns said he was operating in God mode during his historic title reign and undefeated streak, and it makes sense. That's why he got up to a 99 rating in WWE 2K23. But his rating dropped in WWE 2K24, and it will surely drop in WWE 2K25 as well.
The Tribal Chief was pinned by Jey Uso and then was pinned by Cody Rhodes as well, losing his Undisputed Universal Championship at WrestleMania 40. Roman is no longer invincible, and that is why his rating will be 95 maximum in the next edition of the game.
