The past 12 months have been a rollercoaster ride for WWE fans and superstars alike. While the company has been able to make its return to the road following the COVID-19 pandemic, the releases have also come thick and fast.

WWE has released almost 200 superstars across all brands and levels in the company since the beginning of the pandemic, which has left them with a much smaller pool of talent.

Despite this, the show must go on and WWE has continued to deliver and continued to tour throughout the year.

Interestingly, without the WWE Live Events taken into consideration, it's intriguing to see the superstars who suffered the most losses in 2021.


#10 Charlotte Flair, Sheamus, and Mustafa Ali all suffered 22 losses in 2021

Charlotte Flair may be the reigning SmackDown Women's Champion, but she is one of only two women to have suffered more than 20 losses in 2021.

Flair wrestled 45 matches last year and out of those she was able to win 21, lost 22 and the other two matches ended without a result.

Flair isn't the only wrestler to mark up 22 losses in 2021 since Sheamus wrestled 44 matches across RAW, SmackDown, and Pay-Per-views and notched up the same tally.

The Irish superstar won 21 matches whilst there was also one match that was listed as a draw.

Mustafa Ali, on the other hand, wrestled 30 matches and lost 22, picking up just seven wins in 12 months.


#9 Former WWE Superstar John Morrison lost 23 matches in 2021

John Morrison was released from WWE in the fall of 2021, but it appears that he was still able to notch up a big amount of losses ahead of this.

Morrison wrestled 34 matches on WWE TV ahead of his release on November 18th. Of those matches, Morrison won 10, lost 23, and drew just one.

Morrison spent much of his time in WWE alongside The Miz or in tag team matches with the former world champion, which could be why his win/loss record is so shocking.

#8 Ricochet lost 23 matches in 2021

Ricochet is currently performing on SmackDown, after making the move over to the blue brand as part of the WWE Draft.

The move was seen as a new lease on life for Ricochet after he was overlooked on Monday Night RAW. Despite the move, Ricochet still managed to rack up 23 losses in 2021, after wrestling 44 matches.

The former NXT Superstar got 18 wins whilst three of the matches he was part of ended in a draw or no contest.


#7 Current WWE Superstar Chad Gable lost 23 matches in 2021

Chad Gable has been pushing Otis into a prominent position on Monday Night RAW for most of 2021, but it appears he hasn't been as focused on his own career.

The former Olympian wrestled 28 matches in 2021 overall and has one of the highest loss percentages in the company, with 23 of these ending in defeat.

This means that Gable was only able to notch up five wins in WWE for the whole of 2021.

#6 Former WWE Superstar Jeff Hardy lost 25 matches in 2021

Jeff Hardy is another WWE Superstar who was released from the company in 2021 after Hardy was seen struggling with several personal issues.

The former World Champion had a shocking run of losses on RAW before he was drafted over to SmackDown, but it appears his odds didn't improve.

Hardy wrestled 37 matches across both WWE brands and was only able to pick up 12 wins, which works out at just one per month.


#5 Dolph Ziggler has lost 25 matches in 2021

Dolph Ziggler has had a quiet 2021 by his standards since he has spent much of the year wrestling in a tag team alongside fellow WWE Superstar Robert Roode.

The two men have pushed for the Tag Team Championships but judging by Ziggler's win/loss record, he could have been the man holding the team back.

The former world champion wrestled 36 matches over the course of the year and lost 25 of them. Ziggler was able to pick up 11 wins, which works out at less than one win every four weeks.

#4 Sami Zayn lost 26 matches in 2021

Sami Zayn is a former NXT Champion, but he has been part of a storyline surrounding a conspiracy in WWE over the past few months.

Zayn wrestled 35 matches in WWE throughout the past year but lost 26 of them. One of them came back at WrestleMania to Kevin Owens when Logan Paul was in his corner. The Great Liberator has picked up just nine victories in 12 months, which plays into his theory that there is a conspiracy behind his recent losses in the company.


#3 Current WWE Superstar Shelton Benjamin lost 28 matches in 2021

Shelton Benjamin has had an interesting year as his role in The Hurt Business has allowed him to wrestle in a number of matches on the main roster. Benjamin has also spent some time on Main Event and he was able to wrestle 35 matches in WWE over the course of the year.

Of these 35, Benjamin lost 28 of them and was only able to pull together seven matches in 2021.

#2 AJ Styles suffered 28 losses in 2021

AJ Styles had a rollercoaster of a year, from winning the RAW Tag Team Championships to being betrayed by fellow WWE Superstar Omos.

It's easy to understand why The Giant believed Styles was holding him back when his win/loss record is taken into account since The Phenomenal One lost 28 matches in 2021.

The former WWE Champion wrestled 52 matches across all three WWE brands last year and was able to pick up 23 wins and one draw.


#1 WWE Superstars Drew Gulak and Shayna Baszler both lost 30 matches in 2021

Drew Gulak has spent much of his recent WWE career on 205 Live or wrestling on Main Event. The star has had several cameos on RAW over the course of the year when he's included in the storyline surrounding the 24/7 Championship.

In 2021, Gulak wrestled 33 matches and lost 30, giving him the worst loss record in WWE for 2021.

As for the female side of things, Shayna Baszler has the worst loss record since she seemingly carried the women in 2021 with 56 matches. Baszler lost 30 of these bouts, won 24 and two of these matches ended without a result.
