WWE 2K19: 10 Most Overrated Wrestlers

9. Mustafa Ali

WWE 2K19 Mustafa Ali
2K Games

Rating: 81

Why It's Too High: Somehow, some way, 205 Live's Mustafa Ali is rated a full 17 points better than Curt Hawkins. Not only that, the Cruiserweight star is on equal footing with Adam Cole, Andrade Almas, Big Boss Man, Bobby Roode, The British Bulldog (!?) and more.

Yep. According to 2K, Ali's Mortal Kombat-style look means he could easily have headlined SummerSlam 1992 or worked main event steel cage matches against Hulk Hogan in the '80s. OK, maybe not, but it is a bit generous to give him that high a score.

Some of Ali's fellow 205 chums didn't fair so well. Noam Dar, for example, clocks in with a lowly 69 rating, and WWE's first Cruiser Champ TJP only has a 76. On top of that, Mustafa's 81 is only a point shy of Big Show, Sami Zayn and Elias, to name a few.
