10 Wrestlers P*ssed At Their WWE 2K22 Rating

4. The Miz

WWE 2K22 King Woods
2K Games

Rating: 86

King Woods asked a very pertinent question during 2K's ratings reveal. The 2021 King Of The Ring winner wanted to know if the developers set their criteria for scores on the period between 2K20 in 2019 and today or just on 2021-into-2022. According to the hosts, it was a mix of both.

So erm...why is The Miz ranked one point below Finn Bálor after being WWE Champ (albeit for a blink-and-you'll-miss-it spell last year)? There's no diss intended to Finn there, but it's a questionable bit of "booking" from 2K considering Miz's continued importance to the on-screen product in 2022.

The devs kept Miz's rating the same as it was in 2K20 without any real reason. When questioned about it, he wasn't too happy. Again, like Corbin, there was some typical heelish banter in here, but the reality star must be baffled behind the kayfabe bluster too.

Someone needs to sit 2K down and ask how they work these things out.
