32 Wrestlers Confirmed for WWE 2K26 Roster

by

So far, over 32 WWE Superstars are confirmed to be playable in WWE 2K26. The game will feature both returning favorites and updated looks for some wrestlers, reflecting their current characters. While more wrestlers will likely be added before the game’s release later this year, fans are getting a first look at the roster they’ll be able to play as.

WWE 2K25 launched with the largest roster in WWE game history, featuring over 300 wrestlers. The selection has continued to grow with the addition of 25 more through the season pass and special edition content, including stars like Brock Lesnar and unique versions of John Cena and R-Truth. Unlockable Persona Cards add even more variety to existing Superstars. Now, the game boasts a massive 436 wrestlers and managers, featuring new additions like Penta, Stephanie Vaquer, Giulia, and Oba Femi.

The first group of wrestlers confirmed for WWE 2K26 has been announced, and it features four newcomers to the game. Blake Monroe, Myles Borne, Ricky Saints, and Zaria, all part of WWE’s NXT brand, will be making their debut in the Visual Concepts wrestling series. Saints and Monroe recently joined WWE in 2025, while Borne has been with NXT since 2022. Zaria, quickly becoming a popular star, first appeared at Halloween Havoc in 2024 and has since been involved in storylines with some of WWE’s top female wrestlers.

The game will feature a lot of returning wrestlers, primarily from the current WWE roster. Rumors suggest a CM Punk showcase will be included in WWE 2K26, and the current World Heavyweight Champion is currently the biggest name confirmed for the game. Other confirmed stars include current WWE Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer (who was previously added as downloadable content), World Tag Team Champions Jimmy and Jey Uso, and Women’s Tag Team Champions Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky. Players can also expect to see popular RAW stars like Asuka, Bayley, Finn Balor, Logan Paul, Lyra Valkyria, and The New Day – with the game likely including their villainous attitudes for the first time.

Currently, the SmackDown roster is quite thin and lacks all of its current champions. So far, only Lash Legend and Trick Williams have been confirmed to appear, leaving many spots open for the weekly Friday night show. This includes major stars like Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, who were in the Street Fighter movie, as well as champions Jade Cargill (WWE Women’s Champion), Carmelo Hayes (United States Champion), and Giulia (Women’s United States Champion). All members of the Wyatt Family and other popular SmackDown wrestlers such as Alexa Bliss, Bianca Belair, Jacob Fatu, and Randy Orton are also yet to be confirmed. Similarly, Dominic Mysterio and Becky Lynch are champions on RAW and haven’t been announced for WWE 2K26 yet, so we can expect more announcements before the game comes out.

Beyond announcing the wrestlers who’ll be in the game, recent information suggests WWE 2K26 will feature four new match types. Fans can expect the return of the I Quit and Inferno matches, which haven’t been seen since WWE 2K14. A brand-new Dumpster Match is also being added, offering a similar chaotic feel to the Ambulance and Casket matches introduced in WWE 2K24. Plus, Visual Concepts appears to be bringing back 3 Stages of Hell, a best-of-three-falls match where the rules change after each win.
