The list of top wrestlers was topped by AEW Champion MJF. However, women wrestlers were not behind, as Rhea Ripley is in second place. Her popularity has risen multiple folds in the past year with her spectacular performances on almost all shows. Another female superstar from WWE to feature was former SmackDown Women’s Champion Liv Morgan.

The list of women workers was dominated by women from AEW, Impact, and NJPW. At numbers 16 and 19, there were Toni Storm and Jamie Hayter, who have both had a great year and will likely hold the championship in 2023. Utami Hayashishita, Saya Kamitani, and other women from Japan are also ranked high on the list.

Therefore, it looks like women’s wrestling is now given equal importance to men’s wrestling. In the past years, women like Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Ronda Rousey, Bianca Belair, and many others have made an impact on fans and reached a status at the top of the WWE.
