WWE 2K24 continues the series tradition of including ratings to dictate how good each superstar in the game is. These numbers are often controversial, as people rarely agree on who should be the top-rated people in the game. 2K seems to base the numbers on how a talent is presented on screen.

Casket matches in WWE are pretty brutal - here's the rundown to the match type in 2K24.
PostsSo, someone who continually wins championships will be rated higher than a superstar languishing lower down the card, no matter who is better at putting on a good match. Plenty of wrestlers have been given really high ratings in the past, but these are the top stars in WWE 2K24.
20 The Fiend Bray Wyatt - 92
WWE 2K23 Rating: N/A
Others with a 92 rating are Undertaker '03, Ultimate Warrior, Hollywood Hogan, Charlotte Flair, and 'Superstar' Billy Graham.
Technically, there are several superstars with 92 ratings in the game. Yet, the one that deserves a special mention is The Fiend version of Bray Wyatt, who features in the Showcase mode.
During his WWE career, he was a Jason Voorhees-type figure who dominated most matches and rarely felt pain. So, to accurately represent that in video game form, he had to have a high rating.
19 Shawn Michaels '09 - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: N/A
As always, there are several versions of Shawn Michaels in the game. The best, though, is based on the time HBK faced off against The Undertaker at WrestleMania 25 in what is widely regarded as one of the best WWE matches of all time.
He lost that contest, but it was a valiant effort, and Shawn Michaels was already a legend by that time. Thus, a strong rating is understandable.
18 Undertaker '98 - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: 93
Ministry Undertaker has always been a popular version of the Deadman, and he's represented in this game through the 1998 version.
While he probably wasn't at his most dominant in 1998, Undertaker was still one of the top stars in the industry at that time. Plus, he was presented as a considerable threat on WWE TV. Therefore, a 93 rating is fair for the Phenom.
17 Bret 'Hit Man' Hart - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: 91
You don't get the moniker of the "Best There Is, The Best There Was, And The Best There Ever Will Be" without at least being decent in the ring.
Bret Hart was more than decent, though; he was one of the all-time great technical wrestlers. He was also pushed heavily and won plenty of championships, which is the reason he has an impressive 93 rating.
16 Cody Rhodes - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: 91
Cody Rhodes is one of the biggest wrestling stars today and is on the cover of 2K24. Considering those two things, he was always going to have a strong rating.
It helps that he has very rarely lost since returning to WWE in 2022. His lack of a world title in 2023 might be what stops him from being among the top five highest-rated in the game.
15 Charlotte Flair '19 - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: N/A
Since being called up to the main roster, Charlotte has had many big matches and won plenty of championships.

PostsIn 2019, however, she accomplished something extra special: She competed in the first-ever women's WrestleMania main event. That helped her reach a 93 rating, and the multiple title reigns that year probably distatic.aayyy.com/topic/dn/'t hurt either.
14 Seth 'Freakin' Rollins - 93
WWE 2K23 Rating: 92
Winning and keeping hold of the new World Heavyweight Championship in WWE is worthy of a 93 rating alone.
Yet, Rollins also had plenty of big matches and moments in 2023. This has pushed him to the best overall rating he's had in several years.
13 The Rock - 94
WWE 2K23 Rating: 96
Now that he's back in WWE, The Rock is the talk of the wrestling world once again. He never left the WWE games, though.
Every year, there is a jacked modern-day version of the People's Champ. This time, he has a brilliant rating of 94, which is a reflection of the excellent wrestling career he had prior to becoming a movie star.
12 Undertaker '14 - 94
WWE 2K23 Rating: N/A
Unlike most versions of Undertaker, the 2014 one distatic.aayyy.com/topic/dn/'t have a great time. He only had one match that year, and it was the one where his WrestleMania streak was broken.
A mighty 94 rating on the back of that may be a little puzzling. But Undertaker is a legend, and he was up against a beast. As such, 2K hasn't held that loss against him.
11 'Elite' John Cena - 94
WWE 2K23 Rating: N/A
Not many people have appeared in more WWE games than John Cena. That said, 2K24 is only the second entry to include the action-figure version of Cena.
