The WWE 2K franchise's rating system has always been a topic of discussion among fans. Some wrestlers are considered to be either overrated or underrated, leading to controversy. However, WWE 2K24 has sparked even more controversy with legends like Kurt Angle and Stone Cold Steve Austin receiving ratings below 90. It's surprising to see icons like Ted Dibiase and Rick Rude with low ratings.
The questionable nature of the scoring system is highlighted when Logan Paul, a talented but inexperienced performer, receives a higher rating than Kurt Angle and Stone Cold Steve Austin from 1997. Even Dom Mysterio is rated higher than the upcoming Bron Breakker. Fortunately, players have the option to adjust the ratings in WWE 2K24 according to their preferences. This guide will demonstrate how to customize the rating system in the game.
