WWE 2K19: 10 Most Overrated Wrestlers

4. Baron Corbin

WWE 2K19 Baron Corbin
2K Games

Rating: 84

Why It's Too High: Baron Corbin has moved on from playing the deceptively agile big biker with the sad tummy and rapidly-diminishing hairline. His new 'Constable' look isn't for everybody, but it's a vast improvement, and he arguably looks bigger in-ring than ever before. Haters will always hate, so deciding a suitable rating for Corbin must have been a nightmare.

84, though? Well, it's a bit over-the-top.

2K have put Baron on level footing with Cesaro, Sheamus, Dolph Ziggler, Jeff Hardy, Rick Rude and others. Raw's stand-in authority man also has the same rating as The Miz's '10 model, and he won the WWE Title that year. Hmm, we're not sure it's accurate to say Corbin is on that same pedestal of quality.

He wouldn't have to drop too much to be in a more suitable place. 2K could've given Baron a rating of 81-82 and nobody would've blinked an eye. Corbin is deserving of that, just not punching above his weight a point behind the likes of Chris Jericho or Dusty Rhodes.
