5 wrestlers who may receive a downgrade in WWE 2K18

WWE 2K18 is most likely going to be released in October and wrestling fans couldn’t be more excited. With the latest edition of the game also comes a promise of new superstars, improved game play and cutting edge 2K graphics.

The wrestlers included this year will, as usual, be rated out of 100 based on their skill sets, charisma and other attributes necessary to be a successful WWE superstar.

While there have been plenty of superstars given big pushes this year, there have also been several who haven’t quite lived up to the mark. Victims of either bad booking or a lack of belief from backstage officials, these wrestlers just haven’t quite achieved the lofty standards achieved in previous editions of the 2K series.

Keeping that in mind, here are 5 WWE wrestlers who will surely receive a downgrade in WWE 2K18:

#1 Dolph Ziggler

The Showoff could struggle to emulate his earlier rating

Dolph Ziggler has had a career of ups and downs in the WWE. He’s been in the main event scene but somehow always manages to slide down the card somehow. Having said that, his stock still remains pretty high. WWE 2K17 saw Dolph achieve an impressive rating of 85 with a bunch of cool moves and submissions.

However, a year can make a big difference. Ziggler hasn’t been looked at as a main event guy since the release of the last game and it’s highly unlikely that he’ll emulate or better his rating of 85 this year.

He’s lacked in crowd reactions particularly, with most of his past momentum now clearly fizzling out. Expect the number to drop at least a couple of notches if you’re a fan of The Showoff!
