Was 2016 secretly the year of Bray Wyatt?

2016 is finally over and done with it, and it was a highly eventful 12 months for WWE. Business hasn't always been booming, but major changes like the revived Brand Split, AJ Styles' emergence, and Goldberg's stunning return made 2016 a year of immense transformation, and it saw WWE push a number of superstars to the moon.

The likes of Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin finished 2016 incredibly strongly, and they were joined by more obvious names like AJ Styles and Roman Reigns. In terms of pure wins and losses, 2016's rankings feature a number or surprising names, but also glaring omissions. Spoiler alert: the current Universal Champion is nowhere to be found.

Let's define a few criteria before running through them. In the interest of fairness to those who've been on the roster for a while, no wrestlers with less than 20 main roster matches have been taken into consideration. This prevents guys like Goldberg and Finn Balor from topping the list with their single-digit, 100% win ratios. In addition, only matches taking place on Raw, SmackDown, and pay-per-view have been taken into account, with no regard for NXT and house shows.

Finally, let's pour one out for The Ascension's Konnor, who finished bottom of the table with a woeful win/loss record of 1-18 in 2016.

Here are the 10 best WWE wrestler win/loss records of 2016.

10. Charlotte (W28 - L19 - D0)

It shouldn't be a surprise to find Charlotte here. The current Raw Women's Champion has a poor record on her home brand (10-15-0), but her excellent PPV form helps her narrowly edge-out Big Cass for the number 10 spot. Charlotte went 12-1 on WWE pay-per-views in 2016, with the sole loss coming as part of her and Dana Brooke's tag team match with Sasha Banks and Bayley at Battleground, leaving her undefeated singles streak in-tact.

Charlotte's win percentage sits at 60%: a solid number, but not quite one befitting of WWE's top female performer. Still, Charlotte finished 2016 as the rock around which the women's division is built, and she'll likely remain in this role throughout the coming year. With a total of five Women's and Divas Championship reigns to her name already, Charlotte looks certain to match her father's record as a 16-time champion at some point in her career, and the undefeated PPV streak is still being built-up.

Charlotte's immediate future will see her lock horns with Bayley, but who knows where she goes after that. The potential Dana Brooke face turn might still be on the table, making her Charlotte's next logical feud, but whoever she ends up working against, Charlotte's success will continue.
