'WWE 2K18' News: Roman Reigns Supreme Even Inside the Upcoming Wrestling Game
Reigns' overall rating is an impressive 95
If there is one persistent trend in the WWE in recent years, it is that seemingly every meaningful accolade has been claimed by Roman Reigns. Now, Reigns' dominance has extended even into the world of gaming, as he has been given the highest overall rating in "WWE 2K18."
A new video posted by ElementGames confirmed that Reigns really has been designated as the top guy yet again.
The video showed the ratings for the wrestlers included in the game, and when it got to Reigns, it was revealed that the three-time world heavyweight champion has been given an overall mark of 95.
Reigns finishes well ahead of the other wrestlers included in the game, as no one else even sports an overall rating of 94.
The revelation that Reigns has been deemed "The Guy" inside "WWE 2K18" is not really going over well with many wrestling fans.
Some fans have expressed disbelief over Reigns snagging the top spot, though it probably is not that surprising.
Over the past few years, Reigns has managed to defeat just about every notable wrestler on the active WWE roster, and he has also headlined the past three "WrestleManias."
Reigns has clearly been positioned as the top guy in real life by the WWE, so the game may just be reflecting that.
Notably, there are some downloadable content characters coming to the game in the future, though it is unlikely that any of them will even come close to surpassing Reigns' overall rating.
Finishing behind Reigns in the ratings race is the man he beat recently at the "No Mercy" pay-per-view, John Cena, who has been awarded an overall mark of 93. Current WWE Universal Champion and the man rumored to be Reigns' opponent for "WrestleMania 34," Brock Lesnar, also features an overall rating of 93.
The overall mark of 92 has been given to cover athlete Seth Rollins and "The Demon" version of Finn Balor.
"WWE 2K18" is set to be released for the PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on Oct. 17. A Nintendo Switch version of the game is also due out this fall.
