WWE 2K20: Predicting the top 5 highest-rated full-time Superstars
4. Kofi Kingston
Right now, there isn’t a better champion in WWE than Kofi Kingston and that’s a bold statement since Becky Lynch and Bayley are also holding main titles. But that’s how good Kingston has been since winning the title in heart-warming fashion at WrestleMania 35. Kingston has brought some much needed intrigue and prestige back to a WWE Championship that basically felt like a mid-card title for the better half of AJ Styles’s year-long reign.
As such, Kingston needs to have a high rating in WWE 2K20. He is a brilliant strategist who has seen it all, as he’s one of the longest-tenured full-time Superstars on the roster. Kingston is unbreakable; he wrestles so many matches without getting injured. His resiliency just might be No. 1 out of all the wrestlers in WWE, and his stamina is legendary. I still can’t believe what he did in BOTH Gauntlet Matches.
Kofi’s resiliency, grit, surprising strength, agility, ridiculous flexibility, creativity, and ring awareness all need to be reflected in his 2K rating. The video game franchise has not given The New Day veteran his due, as they rated him only 84 last year to put him in a tie with the likes of Rusev, Matt Hardy and Baron Corbin.
No disrespect to those guys, but Kingston is on a different level than them. He should be rated in the high 80’s or low 90’s, at least on par with someone like Seth Rollins (88) last year.
