Top 10 greatest female WWE wrestlers of all time

In the rich tapestry of WWE’s history, the contributions of female wrestlers have been monumental, shaping the landscape of sports entertainment. As we celebrate the evolution of women’s wrestling, let’s delve into the top 10 greatest female WWE wrestlers of all time, each leaving an indelible mark on the industry.

10. Alundra Blayze

A trailblazer of the ’90s, Alundra Blayze’s technical prowess played a pivotal role in the development of women’s wrestling. Despite the weak women’s division during the New Generation Era, Blayze stood tall, winning the WWE Women’s Championship three times. Her captivating rivalry with Bull Nakano showcased her resilience. Blayze’s controversial departure to WCW in 1995, where she famously dropped the Women’s Championship in a trash can on Nitro, soured relations with WWE. However, two decades later, Blayze mended bridges and rightfully earned her spot in the WWE Hall of Fame.

9. AJ Lee

A former Divas Champion, AJ Lee’s in-ring skills and captivating promos were pivotal in transitioning to the Women’s Revolution. Dominating her time with WWE, AJ Lee moved beyond the role of a love interest, leaving an indelible mark. Holding the Divas’ Championship, Lee’s retirement in 2015 left a void, and despite intermittent return rumors, she now works under her real name, April Mendez, for Women Of Wrestling.

8. Chyna

A trailblazer who shattered gender norms, Chyna made history in the late ’90s, participating in male-dominated storylines. As part of D-Generation X, Chyna’s strength and rebellious persona earned her the nickname “9th Wonder of the World.” She became the first woman to hold the Intercontinental Championship, leaving an enduring legacy. Chyna’s unexpected death in 2016 shocked the wrestling world, but her legend continues.

7. Asuka

The Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka’s unique style and undefeated streak left an indelible mark on WWE’s women’s division. Her outstanding matches with Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch showcased her prowess. As a Grand Slam Champion, Asuka’s contributions in NXT and on the main roster solidify her as one of the modern era’s top talents.

6. Sasha Banks

A technical virtuoso, Sasha Banks consistently delivers show-stealing performances, contributing significantly to the elevation of women’s wrestling. Her historic moment alongside Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 37, headlining as the first pair of black women, was groundbreaking. As a five-time Raw Women’s Champion and Grand Slam Champion, Banks excels as both a heel and a babyface.

5. Bayley

From lovable underdog to dominant champion, Bayley’s character evolution made her a cornerstone of the recent women’s division.

Overcoming injury setbacks, Bayley remains a key figure in WWE’s women’s division.

4. Becky Lynch

“The Man” Becky Lynch made history by headlining WrestleMania and reshaping women’s wrestling with her charisma and determination. A versatile performer, Lynch held both the SmackDown and Raw Women’s Championships simultaneously. Her iconic “The Man” era propelled her to the forefront of the Four Horsewomen, leading the charge in changing women’s wrestling.

3. Charlotte Flair

With athleticism and flair, Charlotte Flair, a 14-time WWE Women’s Champion, has become a modern-day legend. Thriving under the pressure of being Ric Flair’s daughter, Charlotte’s versatility, and tremendous athleticism make her a natural heel. Her record-setting championship reigns solidify her as one of the greatest female wrestlers in WWE history.
