Top 5 WWE all-time stars? WWE superstar John Cena will never be mistaken for a Harley Race or Lou Thesz. But what Cena lacks in actual wrestling ability, he certainly makes up for in personality. For the last several years, Cena has been the face of WWE. As a top product seller, his t-shirts can be seen all over arenas worldwide. Though hated by smart male fans, he is popular with the youth demographic WWE is pushing towards. Cena is 5th in our list of Greatest Wrestlers. Besides, Cena also holds his place as one of the most popular WWE superstars of all time.

Nyla Rose hails from the Oneida Nation, and as the Native Beast, she is a force to be reckoned with. Although she is no longer the women’s champion, she is arguably one of the strongest heels in AEW. Fans can expect that she will only become more fearsome with Vickie Guerrero as her manager. When Nyla Rose isn’t terrorizing her co-workers in (and out) of the ring, she has a witty sense of humor that fans can catch on social media. Recently she posted a “topless” picture on Twitter, with the top half of the picture blacked out. And when the social media universe hated on Ariana Grande’s new tattoo, Rose came to her defense, showing off her own General Tso’s chicken tattoo.

No sport is older or more widely distributed than wrestling, often in highly local styles that have persisted to the present day. Wrestling probably originated in hand-to-hand combat, and in particular as a sportive form of combat substituting the submission of a contestant for his death. Works of art from 3000 bce depict belt wrestling in Babylonia and Egypt, and the Sumerian Gilgamesh epic has a description of such wrestling. Loose wrestling in India dates to before 1500 bce. Chinese documents from 700 bce describe loose wrestling, as do Japanese records from the 1st century bce. The belt wrestling practiced locally in the 20th century by the Swiss, Icelanders, Japanese, and Cossacks differed little from that of the Egyptians in 2500 bce.

It’s tough to keep winning streaks alive in today’s WWE. Except for Asuka’s incredible 914-day undefeated streak and Undertaker’s legendary streak at WrestleMania, there haven’t been too many impressive undefeated streaks to talk about in WWE, recently. Therefore, it’s impressive that Adam Cole did not take a pin in WWE for over a year. Before Keith Lee ended his run as NXT Champion, Adam Cole hadn’t lost a singles match via pinfall since winning the title at NXT Takeover XXV. Cole only suffered two DQ losses in his run as champion. Similar to Cole’s run, Becky Lynch, who wrestled her last match at WrestleMania 36, hadn’t had a loss via pinfall since losing to Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at Money In The Bank in May, 2019. After losing to Flair, Lynch only suffered one loss in singles matches (via disqualification). The DQ loss came against Sasha Banks at Clash of Champions 2019.

Finishing just above his long time best friend HBK, The Game cemented his status as one of WWEs top guys during the 2000s. His standing ovation following his return from career-threatening injury at MSG in 2002 remains one of the company’s biggest ever crowd reactions. During his decade of dominance as a multi-time world champion, Triple H was also the architect behind Evolution and the rebirth of DX.
