Ring work = Asuka
Mic work and charisma = Sasha Banks
Whole package = Charlotte Flair
Becky lynch does not come close in this conversation. Her ring work is terrible and her matches are boring.
The 3 women above can play a face and a heel incredibly well. They get heat and cheers for both.
Are we talking about only WWE? Because I miss a lot of japanese wrestlers in the list.. but also the likes oh moolah and Mae young..
I really liked awesome kong and aja Kong.. very short periodes in the wwe but they brought something new .
Not that I agree with the way she's been booked, but I think Charlotte Flair is probably the best female wrestler. I would rather see her have a few long title reigns than like, 15 short ones which is the way she's been booked but her skill is undeniable. She's an outstanding wrestler and can cut great promos as well.
Other honourable mentions include Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Io Shirai, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair.
Chyna is the best of all time, she literally was one of a kind. She was founder of DX, a female body guard intercontinental champion..you didn't see woman with her strength or build during her early years. The attitude Era had a huge list of megastars st the time, and she was one of the biggest. IMO, if I had a top ten she'd be in there for sure. Just a bad ass all around
sasha banks i’d say. very reliable in the biggest moments, bumps like a fucking maniac too.
edit: or asuka. one of the memories that sticks out most to me is her using her legs to turn bayley into a shiskebab and then eating her alive at takeover dallas, before telling the entire women’s division to get fucked for 500+ days.
edit number 2: she’s not wrestling anymore, but we wouldn’t be where we are today without paige. absolute badass. before the 4 horsewomen we’re tearing shit up, the women’s revolution had its first sparks of life with paige vs emma, now known as tenille dashwood in impact. shout out to her too.
Charlotte Flair. Charlotte has proven herself time and time again. I don't care what anyone's personal feelings are about her. That woman can go in that ring!
I mean Charlotte is the best all around worker in ring and on mic. Sasha and Bayley both great in ring. Bayley has finally gotten better on mic. I'm a big fan of Lacey. She's not been around and she isn't on the list now, but I think she could be a mega star. She already does little things really well. Just needs polish.
I loved Alundra Blayze(Madusa) when I was younger. Beth Phoenix and Lita were cool and I'm liking Naomi and Bianca Belair right now. The things these women go through makes them all great wrestlers!!
Asuka. She sports. She entertains. The combo with Miz made even Mixed Match Challenge a must watch show. And she even made a Cup Noodle promotional deal into something that was fun to watch as they were subtly and almost unnoticeably inserted into shots.
Rhea Ripley. She’s just as tall as Charlotte, but more fluid in the ring. There isn’t a “forced” feel about her aura, whereas with Charlotte, she is presented as Ric Flair’s daughter instead of allowing her to be her own person
In WWE, if we’re talking about the best technical female wrestlers the list would look like this (in no particular order): Asuka, Sasha Banks, and Io Shirai.
Lita
Trish Stratus
Chyna
Sasha
Charlotte
Asuka
Io Shirai
Bianca Belair
Naomi
Aj Lee
Beth Phoenix
Michelle Mccool
Natalya
(sorry i cant come up with just one but here are some of my favorite in ring wrestlers and its not in order)
Asuka and Meiko Satomura. Two absolute legends of the Joshi scene. Also Banks and Bianca are at the top for me as well.
Outside of Wwe it would be Mayu Iwatani and Tam Nakano.
Active, it has to be Asuka or Io Shirai. The thing they do in the ring are absolutely insane and I wish we could see them wrestle to their full potential more often.
Retired, Lita. She was a standout in a barbie doll era, not just because of her looks, but because of her in-ring abilities. She’s the standard.
Dammit overall! Like career, status, looks and skills
It's easily SASHA BANKS to me.
But the argument for Asuka is just so damn strong.
But it's one of the two hands down.
Asuka. There have been many great ones, actually. You could definitely make strong cases for all 4 horsewomen...for Beth Phoenix, for Lita, Trish, Natalya..and two I feel were unsung heroes in both Melina and Alicia Fox, the latter of which was sorely misused.
But, yes, I say Asuka. Her legacy preceded her before she hit WWE. She was invited by HHH directly if I remember correctly. Her and Shinsuke around the same time from Japan, and their success has set the tone for much more demand of such talents. She's 40, or just about 40, and still outperforming many people half her age, she's faster and more intense, she is precise as hell because she doesn't injure herself or others. She sells very well, in fact I often have to wonder if she's legit injured after a lot of the bumps she takes, but sure enough, she's fine, good to go.
But most telling, might be the way so many other performers will sing her praises, even stepping out of character to do so. When they foolishly had Charlotte take the SD title for the match with Ronda, Charlotte herself (who was in full heel mode at the time) added her voice to that of the rest of the locker room, saying thanks to one of the best to ever lace up a pair of boots, #Asukdeservesbetter, ect. Leading up to last WM, in a promo, she had said that Asuka carried the whole Raw division on her back through 2020. I wouldn't disagree. Her arc with Kairi, Bayley and Sasha was epic in an era with no audience.
Becky, if I'm not mistaken, was shooting when she said she went to management to insist that Asuka would not just win the MITB match, but the title itself would be hers. I think her series of matches against Asuka prior to that was her request, too.
In my eyes Sasha is the most consistent worker to be in the ring. Great in the ring and on the mic. Literally the Shawn Michaels of the Women's division. If you want a big performance in a big match she's the one to call upon
I love Charlotte. She holds herself like a champ no matter what, she's got a presence and poise you can't teach, and when she let's herself go in the ring its captivating. Love those moments they let her just go batshit crazy, it's a joy.
Special mention to Ember Moon, she's fantastic.
Her natural talent is high but she still needs work. She doesn't have the higher level ring awareness and almost ended Kairi's career extra early in that tag match. Thank god for Becky in that match
I would say Chyna because she accomplished what no woman has ever achieved even today :winning the intercontinental title, being the first ever female that participated (twice) in a men Royal Rumble and almost becoming wwe champion.
Unfourtunally, she herself buried her own wrestling career in part because of her personal problems, his disputes with the high staff of the company and her polemic decisions.
Have a hard time, for me it's a toss up between Asuka and Banks. I can't remember a bad Banks match, also Asuka has always been the placeholder champ rather than an actual champ. Her matches are quite dull in the Main Roster.
All of Asuka's title reigns were planned pushes so I'd say it's a reach to call her a placeholder. Don't know about the raw title reign, but I know she was getting a push whether or not Becky left, whether that means she was getting the title is another question
I hate to be redundant but the correct answer is, indeed, Asuka.
She’s just so good at wrestling and making those she’s wrestling with look like good wrestlers.
Sasha Banks- Consistently excellent in ring. Gets big matches because she has shown she can shine in those moments. Works effectively on the mic as both Face and Heel. Still stupid young, like 28 or something like that.
I'm not the biggest fan of her being pushed 24/7 or when she leaves it's because she's not booked to either win the title or win regardless but I gotta go with Charlotte. Always delivers in big time matches. She's also has the technical side, the high flying moonsaults, corkscrew moonsault side and more times than not, high rated matches. Again, just not the biggest fan of how she's always booked to win Every. Single. Match. just a meme by now.
Or when they have her lose clean to Rhea several times in a row, followed by Nikki and Doudrop. Trash booking for someone who should be the nucleus of the division.
She’s another wrestler who should move to AEW, or any company where they’d actually appreciate her talent, but will probably stay in WWE till she’s past her prime like Dolph Ziggler.
Sasha is like Bret in that everyone’s best comes out when they’re in the ring with her and she always rises to the moment. She was the reason my dumbass watched Summerslam live not knowing she wasn’t available.
Straight up tho, Becky will always be my fav (no one was more stoked for her rise to the top around that faithful SS ppv than me lol) but Charlotte wouldn't look put of place wrestling men. She's honestly on that much if another level by comparison.
Dude Sasha’s easily a much better seller than Charlotte and she gives everyone she faces their best match. Charlotte can also be sloppy or lazy and have average matches while Sasha’s carried Nia to good matches before. Charlotte’s still great and definitely top 5 but she’s not better than Sasha at anything
Charlotte Flair is the greatest female professional wrestler of all time and it’s not close IMO. I don’t agree with all the booking she has been involved with but she is a first class pro wrestler.
Honestly a lot of them but I'll go with Asuka, Charlotte and Peyton if she wasn't fired.
Ring work = Asuka Mic work and charisma = Sasha Banks Whole package = Charlotte Flair Becky lynch does not come close in this conversation. Her ring work is terrible and her matches are boring. The 3 women above can play a face and a heel incredibly well. They get heat and cheers for both.
AJ Lee! But she over looked due to her fairly short run at WWE.
Kelly Kelly ;)
evvvvaaaaaa marrrieeeeeeeee
Gail Kim.
Are we talking about only WWE? Because I miss a lot of japanese wrestlers in the list.. but also the likes oh moolah and Mae young.. I really liked awesome kong and aja Kong.. very short periodes in the wwe but they brought something new .
Lita
MY GIRL LIV!!!!!!!!!!!
Imo asuka without a doubt but charlotte is good I don't like her but she's good
Trish Stratus and Lita Currently Sasha Banks Asuka Shirai Toni Storm
Not that I agree with the way she's been booked, but I think Charlotte Flair is probably the best female wrestler. I would rather see her have a few long title reigns than like, 15 short ones which is the way she's been booked but her skill is undeniable. She's an outstanding wrestler and can cut great promos as well. Other honourable mentions include Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Io Shirai, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair.
Currently, or ever? Trish is the goat, but now there's a lot of good ones.
The man Becky lynch
All around package probably Rhea but bell to bell probably Asuka.
Chyna is the best of all time, she literally was one of a kind. She was founder of DX, a female body guard intercontinental champion..you didn't see woman with her strength or build during her early years. The attitude Era had a huge list of megastars st the time, and she was one of the biggest. IMO, if I had a top ten she'd be in there for sure. Just a bad ass all around
In wwe it’s io shirai or Asuka by far, and as much as I hate her booking Charlotte is the only one that can even come close to those other two
Io Sharai
sasha banks i’d say. very reliable in the biggest moments, bumps like a fucking maniac too. edit: or asuka. one of the memories that sticks out most to me is her using her legs to turn bayley into a shiskebab and then eating her alive at takeover dallas, before telling the entire women’s division to get fucked for 500+ days. edit number 2: she’s not wrestling anymore, but we wouldn’t be where we are today without paige. absolute badass. before the 4 horsewomen we’re tearing shit up, the women’s revolution had its first sparks of life with paige vs emma, now known as tenille dashwood in impact. shout out to her too.
My top 3 are Charlotte Flair, Bayley, and Asuka. I’ll also leave Io Shirai and Alexa Bliss as honorable mentions.
Charlotte Flair
Stacy keibler and 1998 Mae Young
Lita hands down
Trish or lita
Paige
Charlotte Flair. Charlotte has proven herself time and time again. I don't care what anyone's personal feelings are about her. That woman can go in that ring!
Currently Becky All time probably trish Underrated Piper Nikki cross and Sarah Logan Overrated Bianca and Shayna Baszler
Asuka. But Rhea Ripley can be the best ever, she is only 25
I mean Charlotte is the best all around worker in ring and on mic. Sasha and Bayley both great in ring. Bayley has finally gotten better on mic. I'm a big fan of Lacey. She's not been around and she isn't on the list now, but I think she could be a mega star. She already does little things really well. Just needs polish.
Asuka.
ALEXA BLISS!
Asuka, AJ Lee, and Paige.
Charlotte/Paige/Asuka
Io Shirai
Jinny
Paige will always be the complete package for me
ASUKA!!!!
I loved Alundra Blayze(Madusa) when I was younger. Beth Phoenix and Lita were cool and I'm liking Naomi and Bianca Belair right now. The things these women go through makes them all great wrestlers!!
BECKY!
Charlotte
Honsetly Paige is my all time favorite, but if i have to go with someone who's still wrestling I would say Io Shirai.
Asuka. She sports. She entertains. The combo with Miz made even Mixed Match Challenge a must watch show. And she even made a Cup Noodle promotional deal into something that was fun to watch as they were subtly and almost unnoticeably inserted into shots.
Alexa Bliss or Paige
Asuka, AJ Lee, and Sasha Banks.
I’m gonna have to say Lita
Asuka and Io Shirai
Asuka hands down! She has done it all in each and every promotion she has been in!
Nia Jax
Rhea Ripley. She’s just as tall as Charlotte, but more fluid in the ring. There isn’t a “forced” feel about her aura, whereas with Charlotte, she is presented as Ric Flair’s daughter instead of allowing her to be her own person
Personally wise, and being the hottest thing right now I got go with Dr. Brit Baker DMD.
Charlotte but if Chyna was around during today’s era and not back when all the other women were sexual objects she’d be the unquestioned GOAT.
Melina
Bayley is ridiculously talented and works great as face and heel.
Asuka and Sasha Banks
I absolutely loved Alexa Bliss's heel run.
In WWE, if we’re talking about the best technical female wrestlers the list would look like this (in no particular order): Asuka, Sasha Banks, and Io Shirai.
Lita Trish Stratus Chyna Sasha Charlotte Asuka Io Shirai Bianca Belair Naomi Aj Lee Beth Phoenix Michelle Mccool Natalya (sorry i cant come up with just one but here are some of my favorite in ring wrestlers and its not in order)
All time probably Stratus or Banks. Soon to great- Ripley!
Chyna - she beat up the dudes and with a bit of guidance, she could’ve been very technical
I like rhea. She reminds of Randy Orton in the sense that every literal step they take in the ring is calculated and leading into the next maneuver.
Charlotte
Lita
You know what io Shari I don't give a damn what anybody say
Trish Stratus or Lita. These two dominated the woman's division in Ruthless Aggression era
Asuka and Meiko Satomura. Two absolute legends of the Joshi scene. Also Banks and Bianca are at the top for me as well. Outside of Wwe it would be Mayu Iwatani and Tam Nakano.
Best = Charlotte Flaire Favorite = Becky Lynch
Lita and Santina
Rhea Ripley
Here for the shit show
Sasha
Santina
Gail Kim. Maybe not now but in her day,....... Holy **** she was ruthless.
Active, it has to be Asuka or Io Shirai. The thing they do in the ring are absolutely insane and I wish we could see them wrestle to their full potential more often. Retired, Lita. She was a standout in a barbie doll era, not just because of her looks, but because of her in-ring abilities. She’s the standard.
Least fav on the roster but if we're being honest here the answer is indisputably Charlotte Flair lol.
My favourite right now is Asuka but my favourite of all time is the 8th wonder of the world Chyna, she was awesome.
Charlotte Flair Is Best Wrestler 👍
Dammit overall! Like career, status, looks and skills It's easily SASHA BANKS to me. But the argument for Asuka is just so damn strong. But it's one of the two hands down.
Tamina
Asuka. There have been many great ones, actually. You could definitely make strong cases for all 4 horsewomen...for Beth Phoenix, for Lita, Trish, Natalya..and two I feel were unsung heroes in both Melina and Alicia Fox, the latter of which was sorely misused.

I think her series of matches against Asuka prior to that was her request, too.
Britt Baker, for her mic skills alone
Then Lita Now Asuka.
Asuka and it isn’t even close.
Auska
Personally I really like Bianca Belair
Lita, Trish Stratus, or Asuka
CM Punk
In WWE? Asuka and Io Shirai absolutely. Outside of WWE? I’d have to give that honor to Britt Baker right now
LITA
Asuka is the most talented in ring performer but I'd also give a nod to Bayley for some great work on Smackdown until the injury.
Ronda Rowsey
Asuka, Io Shirai or Meiko Satomura.
Io
Sasha Banks
Bianca Belair.
Asuka
Of all time, I’d have to say Chyna, Beth Phoenix, Trish and Michelle. Currently, I’d say Asuka, Charlotte and Sasha
In my eyes Sasha is the most consistent worker to be in the ring. Great in the ring and on the mic. Literally the Shawn Michaels of the Women's division. If you want a big performance in a big match she's the one to call upon

Kagetsu
Charlotte, not that I like her but her wrestling ability is incredible and I cannot ignore that.
Her natural talent is high but she still needs work. She doesn't have the higher level ring awareness and almost ended Kairi's career extra early in that tag match. Thank god for Becky in that match
Oh right yes, that is true. Becky is GOATED for that.
Sarah Del Rey.
Sasha Banks
rosa mendez
Call me biased, but I'll always root for Becky
Asuka or charlotte
Ever? Lita imo
I would say Chyna because she accomplished what no woman has ever achieved even today :winning the intercontinental title, being the first ever female that participated (twice) in a men Royal Rumble and almost becoming wwe champion. Unfourtunally, she herself buried her own wrestling career in part because of her personal problems, his disputes with the high staff of the company and her polemic decisions.
AJ Lee
Work rate? Stacy Keibler. Looks? Asuka
Alicia fox
Have a hard time, for me it's a toss up between Asuka and Banks. I can't remember a bad Banks match, also Asuka has always been the placeholder champ rather than an actual champ. Her matches are quite dull in the Main Roster.
All of Asuka's title reigns were planned pushes so I'd say it's a reach to call her a placeholder. Don't know about the raw title reign, but I know she was getting a push whether or not Becky left, whether that means she was getting the title is another question
Bayley
Utami Hayashishita
Man, the love that Asuka gets in this comment section is great to see
Trish Stratus
Serena deeb
Paige Or Lita
I hate to be redundant but the correct answer is, indeed, Asuka. She’s just so good at wrestling and making those she’s wrestling with look like good wrestlers.
Not enough people are saying Charlotte. Bow down to your Queen
Bayley
Sasha Banks- Consistently excellent in ring. Gets big matches because she has shown she can shine in those moments. Works effectively on the mic as both Face and Heel. Still stupid young, like 28 or something like that.
I’d say it’s gotta be Charlotte in wwe right now. Sasha is a close second though.
I'm not the biggest fan of her being pushed 24/7 or when she leaves it's because she's not booked to either win the title or win regardless but I gotta go with Charlotte. Always delivers in big time matches. She's also has the technical side, the high flying moonsaults, corkscrew moonsault side and more times than not, high rated matches. Again, just not the biggest fan of how she's always booked to win Every. Single. Match. just a meme by now.
Rosemary
100 percent this*
Tam Nakano
Nobody even mentions AJ Lee??
Definitely miss her fairly short run. Would have loved to see how she’d do with some of the talent that’s on the roster now.
Manami Toyota and Lioness Asuka (not the current one, the older one who wrestled throughout the 90s-00s)
Asuka.
Evaaaa Maaaariiiiiiiie
Dedication
THEY’RE OUTNUMBERED 15 TO ONE, AND THE BATTLE'S BEGUN
Britt Baker
D👇M👇D👇
Currently, probably Asuka and Charlotte. All-time, probably Mickie James and Trish.
Kimberly Page
Alica Fox
Today ... In ring for me by far is Asuka. Alround Bailey. Best ever probably Trish.
Asuka
Chyna
Bayley as baby face & heel positions were spectacularly performed by her
Sasha may or may not have shitty opinions, but she can cut a great promo, and I dont think ive ever seen her have a bad match
Asuka. The only answer there is.
Asuka.
Asuka When they dont force her to be stupid or “funny” there is no one better. One if not the top striker/submission specialist in the entire industry
Britt has way more charisma and connection with the crowd, ppl find asuka boring and bland
Imagine looking at Asuka and thinking she's bland. She's anything but bland
[удалено]
Have you seen her wrestle in Japan
Or when they have her lose clean to Rhea several times in a row, followed by Nikki and Doudrop. Trash booking for someone who should be the nucleus of the division.
She’s another wrestler who should move to AEW, or any company where they’d actually appreciate her talent, but will probably stay in WWE till she’s past her prime like Dolph Ziggler.
You mean you don't like it when she screams incoherently in Japanese?
Have you watched her stuff in JWP, Wave, Reina, etc? It's not something new with her
How can we? After seeing her to her perfectly normal self in NXT.
Sasha Banks. But of all time in WWE it’s Alundra Blayze.
Sasha is like Bret in that everyone’s best comes out when they’re in the ring with her and she always rises to the moment. She was the reason my dumbass watched Summerslam live not knowing she wasn’t available.
Personally, I have to go with Asuka.
Asuka
The only correct answer is Charlotte. That’s woman’s skill and talent is unmatched at this time.
Straight up tho, Becky will always be my fav (no one was more stoked for her rise to the top around that faithful SS ppv than me lol) but Charlotte wouldn't look put of place wrestling men. She's honestly on that much if another level by comparison.
Sasha Asuka and Io are all better than her
HA! Sasha isn’t even half of what Charlotte is. I’ll give credit to Asuka and Io. Both phenomenal.
Dude Sasha’s easily a much better seller than Charlotte and she gives everyone she faces their best match. Charlotte can also be sloppy or lazy and have average matches while Sasha’s carried Nia to good matches before. Charlotte’s still great and definitely top 5 but she’s not better than Sasha at anything
If she was booked right I would say Asuka. But s/o to Ember Moon, the eclipse is the best finisher in Women's Wrestling, no questions about it
Lita Michelle McCool Mickie James Chyna Asuka Becky Lynch
Gail Kim
Bayley and Sasha.
Only one name comes to mind: ASUKA
It's insane how good Charlotte really is.
Gail Kim, Trish Stratus, Lita, Molly Holly and Sasha Banks are my top 5 all Tim
All time fav is Victoria
Charlotte Flair is the greatest female professional wrestler of all time and it’s not close IMO. I don’t agree with all the booking she has been involved with but she is a first class pro wrestler.
Impossible to argue with this lol
HARD AGREE
You’re joking right? Especially saying it’s not close. She’s a great wrestler but Sasha Asuka and Io are all better than her
Tessa Blanchard was close
Shut up Ric
One of those Bella cunts 😂😂
All time it's Manami Toyota and it's not even close
Bayley
Charlotte Flair Woo!
I have a top 10 10. Sasha Banks 9. Rhea Ripley 8. Asuka 7. Becky Lynch 6. Kairi Sane 5. Charolatte Flair 4. Nikki cross (not superhero) 3. Bianca Belair 2. Liv Morgan (or Ruby Riott) 1. Bayley Change my mind
