WWE 2K25: 10 Best Looking Characters

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.
