With the hotly anticipated, much-hyped WWE 2K25 now finally here, WWE fans and gamers are slowly but surely getting to grips with this latest 2K Games and Visual Concepts release. And as part of that, that means exploring the absolutely stocked roster of current stars, hot prospects, and legends of yesteryear.

As is always the case with these games, some wrestlers look absolutely stunning, while others... yeah, maybe not so much. To be clear, a solid 95% of WWE 2K25's grapplers brilliantly capture their real-life counterpart's likeness. However, certain talents - Chyna, Ilja Dragunov, and Roxanne Perez immediately springing to mind - vary from so-so to outright awful. But to focus on the more impressive character models here, and trying to find the true cream of the crop.

Sure, some of the usual big hitters continue to look great, but to its credit, some of WWE 2K25's most perfect character models are actually certain names a little lower down the totem pole. Such is the detail put into this latest release, you don't necessarily have to be a WrestleMania main eventer to have your likeless flawlessly captured by Visual Concepts.

So with all of that in mind, then, here are ten WWE 2K25 character models guaranteed to make a lasting impression.

10. Rhea Ripley

There are actually four different versions of Rhea Ripley in WWE 2K25, but easily the most impressive on a visual level is the current-day iteration of WWE's Mami.

With a mammoth 96 rating, this version of Rhea is the highest-rated female in the game, edging out Bianca Belair by a single point. And with Ripley and Belair seemingly set to be involved in a triple threat with IYO SKY at WrestleMania 41, you can always put those three up against each other on 2K25 to get a sneak preview of the Showcase of the Immortals.

As for this Rhea Ripley model, it perfectly captures the sheer presence of the Australian powerhouse, even down to insane levels of detail for her tattoos and attire. Also, upon loading up WWE 2K25 for the first time, Rhea is the Women's World Champion. Of course, it's up to you whether you dare strip Ripley of that belt and mirror real life by having IYO SKY hold Raw's top women's prize, or maybe you instead opt to keep one half of the Terror Twins ruling the roost on the red brand.

Where the other three Rhea Ripleys are concerned, much like WWE 2K24, we have a 72-rated 2017 Rhea and an 80-rated 2020 Rhea that are unlockable. Likewise, ticking off certain MyFaction challenges will earn you an Elite Rhea Ripley - as in, an action-figure version of Rhea.

While those Elite character models do admittedly have some quirk charm to them, it doesn't quite match the sheer badass nature of the base game Rhea.
