20 Best Women's Wrestlers In The World Today
3. Sasha Banks
Separating WWE’s Four Horsewomen is difficult, so intertwined are their careers. The bulk of their greatest moments have come while competing against or alongside each other, making it difficult to determine who was pulling the weight.
Regardless, it’s no coincidence that each of Bayley (TakeOver: Brooklyn), Becky Lynch (TakeOver: Unstoppable), and Charlotte Flair’s (Raw - July 25 2016) best matches have come against Sasha Banks. She has her flaws (sloppiness, for one), but she always seems to over-deliver when placed in a big spot, and you could make a solid argument for her being the best women’s wrestler to ever grace a WWE ring.
Banks has more star power than any of her fellow Horsewomen. Her attitude and mannerisms mean she plays a more convincing heel than a face, but she’s immensely popular in her current role too, meaning it’s hard to argue her positioning.
Sasha is fantastic in the ring, with her bumping standing out the most. ‘The Boss’ isn’t afraid of putting her body on the line with huge, risky spots, and this is part of what made her feud with Charlotte so special. Her big matches are all carried by an undercurrent of recklessness, ensuring each one feels dangerously exciting, though you have to worry for her long-term health.
