Age is very well just a number for these superstars
Age is very well just a number for these superstars

In the world of professional wrestling or "sports entertainment", there are more than a selected few wrestlers that began their WWE career when they were just teenagers. WWE veterans like Daniel Bryan began wrestling as young as the age of 16. Brock Lesnar broke the record in 2002 when he became the youngest person to hold the WWE Championship at just 25 years old. Even though many youngsters are still competing in the WWE Performance Centre and WWE NXT, they are yet to make an impact on the main roster.

There is no specific age required to become a pro wrestler. Most superstars began their careers at 16 or 18 years old. Former Divas Champion Paige had her first wrestling match when she was just thirteen. As more wrestlers make it to WWE, they look to make their mark in the biggest pro wrestling company in the world.

The following is a list of the youngest male and female wrestlers in WWE right now (as of 26 July 2019) and it only consists of Superstars on the main roster (Raw and Smackdown Live only). Wrestlers who share the same age are ranked according to the order of their birth.


#10 Alexa Bliss - 27 years old

Born: 9 August 1991
Born: 9 August 1991

Alexa Bliss is one of the most successful female superstars in WWE right now. She has accomplished what most would dream about. At the young age of only 27 years old, Bliss has made history by becoming the first person to win the Smackdown and Raw Women's Championship on two separate occasions. She held the titles several times each, making her a 5-time women's champion.

She also won the 2018 women's Money in the Bank ladder match, thus winning the briefcase and becoming the first female and third superstar overall to cash it in on the same night it was won. Bliss is also one of the most talented in-ring performers in the company. She is brilliant on the mic, plays a very good heel and she's very attractive.

Little Miss Bliss still has many more years left in her and she'll be around for a very long time. She is an example of an experiment that became a great success. Bliss hosted WWE's grandest event, WrestleMania 35, making her the youngest and the first active female superstar to do so.

#9 Sasha Banks - 27 years old

Banks has gone on to make history in the WWE on several occasions. Her match against Bayley at TakeOver: Respect in 2015 was the first women's match to ever headline a TakeOver event, and she was also involved in the first-ever women's Iron Man match in WWE history.

At Hell in a Cell in 2016, she and Charlotte Flair became the first women to main event a WWE PPV and they were first female superstars to compete in a Hell in a Cell match. She is a four-time Raw Women's Champion and along with Bayley, they became the first ever WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
