According to reports, the undisputed universal champion will get a staggering upgrade in the forthcoming release of the video game.

Over the last two years in WWE, it’s become apparent Roman Reigns is almost unbeatable in the ring.

Not only has no one been able to beat him for the Universal Title in that entire time, but Reigns has also been WWE Champion since WrestleMania 38, and following his win at Royal Rumble, The Tribal Chief has now gone an incredible 152 matches without being pinned.

A  truly spectacular feat that has earned him a rightful place amongst the greatest athletes in the industry.

Since Reigns has held a title in WWE for longer than anyone else in 35 years, the team at 2K will no doubt be looking to do justice to his WWE 2K23 rating.

His lengthy reign of dominance already saw him awarded an impressive 99 in 2K22.

However, according to a report from Wrestle Ops and The SmackDown Hotel, 2K will be giving Reigns a rating of 99, which is presumed to be the highest possible rating in the game’s next edition.

If you’re wondering what this means, the tribal chief will be unarguably the strongest character in 2K23 and maybe even unbeatable.

Since the whole point of the WWE 2K series is to create a game as close to the real thing as possible,  Reigns should be incredibly difficult to beat, or even pin down.

Reigns' rating in WWE 2K22 might have also played into why the undisputed head of the table will be rated 99 in the next game.

 At 95, Reigns was also the highest-rated player in last year's game. 

One year on, The Tribal Chief certainly hasn't lost his groove and has instead gotten even better, dismantling every single opponent who dares to challenge him.

While 2k will gladly be happy to upgrade his ratings significantly, fans need not be surprised if his rating eventually hits triple figures should 2K want it to.

They already did that in the past with the gold version of AJ Styles which was awarded a 100.

The closest a legitimate wrestler has come to 99 in a 2K game was when John Cena got a 96 in WWE 2K15.
