WWE 2K26's Highest-Rated Superstars Revealed

The Nightmare has a rating of 96. Not only does that make Ripley the highest-rated female star in the game, but she's the highest-rated wrestler overall in terms of current versions of active WWE Superstars. It's a tie for first on the men's roster between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, both of whom have been awarded a rating of 95.

The good people at 2K clearly think very highly of Ripley, as there's a full two points between her and the next highest-rated female Superstars in the game. Those Superstars are Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair, both of whom have 94 ratings. Back on the men's side of the card, you have three Superstars with 94 ratings - Seth Rollins, Brock Lesnar, and 2K26 cover star, CM Punk.

Other notable ratings as we move on down include Charlotte Flair, Gunther, and WWE Champion Drew McIntyre with 93s, WrestleMania opponents Liv Morgan and Stephanie Vaquer both have 92s, while Logan Paul scores a 90, the same as Bron Breakker. That particular rating caused a stir during the reveal as Kevin Owens, who has a rating of 87, questioned how Paul has such a high rating, asking the YouTuber to his face as he appeared via satellite.

WWE Legends With Ratings Higher Than 96

While Ripley is the highest-rated active star on the roster, there will be playable wrestlers with higher ratings than her in WWE 2K26. Most notably Super Cena, the ultimate, almost unbeatable form of John Cena, who has a perfect 100 rating. Beating him will be incredibly tough, although if you want to feel invincible, use him yourself to take on the world.

The regular version of Cena also has a higher rating than Ripley, scoring a 97. In any other game, Cena would have won the award for highest-rated active Superstar with that score. However, this is the first 2K game in history where he falls under the Legends banner instead. The same applies to Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Tribal Chief version of Roman Reigns, both of whom also have 97 ratings.
