The launch of the much-awaited video game WWE 2K23 is just weeks away. The game has already announced its cover for this year, which will feature legend John Cena. In its build-up, the ratings for the wrestlers are always something to look up to many fans. As is always the case, the subjective nature of ratings means that it’s always up for debate. That is the case this time around also, as fans vie for their favorite performers to be at the top.

The comprehensive list features performers from the present as well as the glorious past. Legends such as The Rock and The Undertaker are also a part of the list. But their ratings are not a point of contention amongst the fans. They are more concerned about the placement of ‘The Man’ Becky Lynch and ‘The EST of WWE’ Bianca Belair. The pair were involved in a fascinating rivalry in 2022.

Lynch has racked up one of the highest numbers in WWE 2K23 with an overall score of 96. She is the top-rated women wrestler in the history of WWE games. Belair has also garnered an impressive total of 95. She has just missed the top position by a mere point.

On the current run, there’s an argument to be made about Belair missing out on the top spot. But if one were to take into account the stellar career that ‘Irish Lass Kicker’ has had, it’s hard to look past her.

What lies further for the pair?

Belair will be facing ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’Asuka at WrestleMania 39. The latter won the women’s Elimination Chamber match to earn the opportunity. The two had a stare-down in the middle of the ring during this week’s Raw. Lynch, on the other hand, would be teaming up with Lita to face Damage Ctrl for the women’s tag championships. Bayley accepted the challenge on her notorious group’s behalf.

Becky Lynch getting the highest rating in 2k23 was not received well by all quarters. There are many who believe Bianca Belair should have been higher than her. Whatever the case, Lynch has certainly made a record for becoming the highest-rated women’s star in WWE games.
