 A wrestling game is nothing without wrestlers, and the WWE 2K22 roster is packed with them. Although, it’s significantly different from previous years as a result of the layoffs during the pandemic.

There are still more than 160 wrestlers in WWE 2K22, all drawn from RAW, Smackdown, NXT, NXT UK, and WCW. Some debutants we're seeing this year include Dominik Mysterio and Austin Theory, with popular NXT wrestlers like Samoa Joe and Kay Lee Ray, also making the cut. We’re also seeing the usual legends make an appearance, like Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, and The Rock, as well as prominent superstars like Asuka and AJ Styles. In addition, we're seeing some late legends appearing on the roster including Eddie Guerrero and Randy Savage. 

If you’re on the fence about picking up this new entry in the series after the disastrous launch of WWE 2K20, but, as we cover in our WWE 2K22 review, we found developer Visual Concepts has more than made up for its mistakes. Not only has the fighting system been overhauled for the better, but there are far fewer bugs than in the previous game.

Onto the wrestlers.
