WWE 2K15 Roster: 15 Overrated Wrestlers That Need Downgrading http://www.gamescdkey.com/news/wwe-2k15-roster-15-overrated- wrestlers-that-need-downgrading A year in the WWE can feel like a lifetime.  One minute a wrestler is main eventing,  a while later  and they can’t even get on the show.  That’s partly why it’s refreshing  to get an annual WWE 2K video game release,  it reflects  the changes  in the WWE programming.  The stars who were considered  the best rated talent a year ago are in some instances  the weakest wrestlers on the show today. There are guys who won all the time in the runup to WWE 2K14s release,  who nowadays lose every week in under three minutes.  WWE 2K15 is going to have to reflect  these changes,  so expect the ingame ‘ratings’  system to look very different come the October  release.  2K14 ranked its wrestlers out of  a hundred.  The top level  talent,  the television  main eventers, were mainly attributed  to be a 90 plus. Some of  those same names will struggle for the mid 80s this time around! Some of 2K14s most difficult wrestlers to beat are going to need a serious downgrading… so let’s get straight to it! 15. The Rock
