Former Smackdown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair has just been named the #1 wrestler on Pro Wrestling Illustrated’s PWI Women’s 150 list, showcasing the top 150 women’s wrestlers in the world.
Here are the top 10, according to PWI:
1. Bianca Belair
2. Utami Hayashishita
3. Impact Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo
4. AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker
5. Thunder Rosa
6. Sasha Banks
7. Syuri
8. NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion Io Shirai
9. Tam Nakano
10. NXT Women’s Champion Raquel Gonzalez
Normally, Pro Wrestling Illustrated has only ranked the top 50 women’s wrestlers in the world. This is the first year that PWI’s list for women’s wrestlers has ranked 150 talents. A big part of that has to do with the ever-evolving women’s wrestling division, especially in WWE, where women have main evented two out of the last three Wrestlemania’s.
