Wrestling Games Ranked (That I've Played Anyway...)

I've played a ton of wrestling games for many years now, there's far, far too many for me to play all of them as this list will not include some of those (WWE 2K23, AEW Fight Forever, Day Of Reckoning etc) but there will be A LOT of games nonetheless, so enjoy :)

... But then there's 2K14. Just the most fun, most complete wrestling game ever made. AMAZING 30 years of WrestleMania mode with the historical objectives, THE BEST customization ever with wrestlers, finishers, arenas, stories, and more, and a great roster with old and new stars. I continually played this game for 3 years straight on the 360, and it's a crime it's never been ported to the future gens. Greatest wrestling game ever.
Choosing between SVR 2011 and 2K14 is... not easy. SVR 2011 is to many the greatest wrestling game of all time with the greatest Road to WrestleMania mode ever, a great roster, great customization, AMAZING music, just great everything. End of an era really, amazing game.
SVR 2007 seriously had no right being this damn good and fun. The best and most fluid wrestling to date at the time, amazing music, roster, and the still the greatest GM mode to this day. Love it.
Very, VERY good wrestling game. Some would say the last great one we got, with good gameplay (As long as you turn off the awful reversal bars mechanic) A great and fun story/career mode, good customization and decent everything else. Best 2K game that's not 14
This goddamn game is such a janky lovable mess with the deepest customization and the literal ability to kill people, I love it so much. Something new is so needed with all the 2K games, and this was just it. I love Wrestling Empire so much.
Here it finally is! The game that took No Mercy's spot at the time as the best wrestling game ever. Great roster, fun ass and charming gameplay and feel, good customization, good everything.
Such a fun ass game, a fresh, interesting and goofy ass concept and artstyle, over the top silliness, just a fun, great game with fun ass gameplay, a decent roster, and good modes. I love All Stars. I wish we got something like it that's not 2K Battlegrounds.
I can't pretend this game wasn't so much fun, we were in a new era and it was a damn good start. Same gameplay as 2011 with some improvements, good roster, but the standouts are... One of the most interesting, fun, and just best Road to WrestleMania modes ever, and the best Universe mode. Love this game.
Great game, I learnt a lot of stuff about the attitude era while I was very young thanks to it, great music, same gameplay, really like this one.
The most recent one, definitely a good game with some decent gameplay, great customization and a good career mode, but DAMN that 40 years of WrestleMania mode blows hot ass. Still, a good game overall, the best of the uhh, "new" 2K games so far.
Oh good lord this was such a good ass game, fun wrestling, great modes and customization, it put everything before it to shame, love No Mercy to this day
Honestly, I've played this game a lot not for its gameplay although decent, it's the customization that's so much fun and versatile, and it's something different and fresh for a change, love this game
Honestly REALLY REALLY enjoyed this one as a kid on the PSP, it was something fresh to me and introduced me to TNA, loved it
Great game with all the fun over the top early 2000s aesthetics, fun as hell.
Alright game, new engine that's somewhat fun with the arcadey-ness but still ehhh... Boring, but a huge step up to 2K20, not nearly as good as 2K19 however.
A lovely idea that caught my attention right off the bat, wonderful artstyle and music, but the game itself gets repetitive and bland quite quickly, still pretty alright, I can forgive that for how much I love the aesthetic and the whole idea
Another just decent game, better than the games before it from 15 to 17 in every aspect but still somewhat empty, thankfully, 19 solved that :)
Decent game again, fun ass Road to WrestleMania (man I miss those) and overall a pretty good time
Could be my childhood bias once more but I really enjoyed this game and its Road to WrestleMania as a kid, pretty good.
There's not much I remember about this one, it was about the same fun as the first SmackDown VS Raw but I have more childhood memories with the other one.
Decent game just kinda fell short compared to some of the games that came before it, still pretty good.
Almost there... this game was good as hell, still not on the No Mercy level but we're almost there...
It's... alright? Better than 2K15 but just really forgettable, the only thing I remember is DenkOps' insane and fun MyCareer mode run for this game, which he made himself, not part of the game. Still decent, I guess
The first two SmackDown games but on roids. Pretty good, just has the misfortune of not matching up to No Mercy, but soon...
Very meh game, alright gameplay I suppose but just very bland modes, there's almost nothing to do, but still better than 2K15
I have no idea how they were pumping these games out so fast but, this was another alright one, better than the first SmackDown but not as good as No Mercy.
Ehhh... It's pretty alright, better than the games before it but nowhere near as good as No Mercy.
Alright game really, just very disappointing, and somewhat boring. The last gen 360/PS3 version is better and literally has more content, let that sink in XD
Despite the goofy ass movement I loved this game as a kid :D
This was fun as hell with chaotic wrestling and decent modes, pretty good.
This Twisted Metal knockoff probably doesn't even count but screw it why not, Twisted Metal knockoff or not I enjoyed it as a kid, had a lot of goofy charm to it.
Meh.... it's not the worst game by any means, just kinda bland once more even with it being a fresh take on wrestling games, it's still empty and boring, but a step up to what we got with 2K20.
Better than World Tour, but still not the best game.
Fun little game but definitely a tad dated and slow as hell, but still decent for its time.
Cute GBA visuals but that's about all, game itself was somewhat alright but for the device it ran on.
Once again... A game that commits the cardinal sin of just being bland, boring, and having absolutely nothing going for it. The wrestling wasn't good either
Somewhat better than the first, but still a sluggish bore XD

38

Kinda ass, just bland, nothing to say cause there's nothing to the game lol
Damn this game was ass even with the very goofy concept and visuals lmfao
Even with Simpsons Wrestling being a thing, I can't ever get over how ASS this game was. Just a broken, disappointing mess. Absolutely horrible
