2. Nikki Bella (85)

Thank God 2K had the sense to rank Nikki Bella behind Asuka (87 rating). The real divide between both as wrestlers is more than 2 points, but at least there's a gap. Meanwhile, Bella shares the same 85 rating as fellow female stars like Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss. Oh, and she's also apparently better in-ring than Bayley (83) and Sasha Banks (84).

Really, 2K? You seriously think gamers won't be miffed that someone who spends much of her time filming faux-reality TV shows these days is considered more handy as a wrestler than 2 of WWE's best female athletes? Worse, Nikki is even 2 points better off than Natalya and Nia Jax, both of whom are featured parts of the product right now.

Nikki showed she can be useful as a wrestler during matches against Charlotte and Natalya, but surely that's because those women were involved. Without meaning to be too harsh, Bella doesn't belong in the upper echelons of the female rankings in 2K18. Knocking a few points off that 85 would be fair.
