WWE Superstars are regarded as some of the most well-built and strongest competitors in the industry. Even though the strength of the male wrestlers is often highlighted in the company, the female Superstars have never been too far behind in impressing with their feats of strength.
Despite the fact that the men in WWE weigh far more than the women, the women have shown remarkable displays of strength by lifting the men off their feet and carrying them.
In this article, we will look at the 12 female WWE Superstars who have lifted male WWE Superstars.
#12 Chyna lifted several WWE Superstars including Eddie Guerrero (220 lbs) and Christian (212 lbs)
The late Chyna is regarded as one of the most important women in WWE. Chyna was one of the only females during her time who could stand in the ring with the men and easily overpower them.
During her in-ring career we saw her compete in several intergender spots and matches where she outperformed her male counterparts. She delivered overhead press slams and powerbombs to men like Eddie Guerrero and Christian with ease during these matches.
Chyna's incredible strength made her one of the biggest stars in WWE during her prime.
#11 WWE Superstar Beth Phoenix has lifted Edge (241 lbs)
Thanks to her incredible talent and strength, Beth Phoenix became one of the biggest female WWE Superstars of all time. The WWE Hall of Famer could take down multiple opponents at once, and we’ve seen her even enter the men’s Royal Rumble to showcase her power.
During her time in the ring, The Glamazon took down several male Superstars such as Santino Marella and CM Punk. Along with that, backstage photos have also shown Phoenix lift her real-life husband Edge on her shoulders, and she’s done the same to Marella on screen.
#10 Former WWE Superstar Sable has delivered the Sable Bomb to several men
Sable was one of the most talented Superstars in the female locker room during her time in the company. Even though WWE used Sable for her looks more than her wrestling skills, she showcased her strength and power on a few occasions.
Sable delivered her signature Sable Bomb to Marc Mero and Christian, among other male WWE Superstars during her time in the ring.
#9 Becky Lynch has taken out former WWE Superstar James Ellsworth (176 lbs)
Becky Lynch has had a phenomenal couple of years in WWE, and she has managed to transform from her Irish Lass Kicker character into becoming The Man of WWE.
Before becoming The Man, Lynch had a few interesting rivalries on WWE SmackDown, one of which was when she faced James Ellsworth in intergender matches a couple of times. During those contests, fans witnessed Lynch lift Ellsworth, who weighs 176 lbs, to perform a few of her moves, including the Bexploder.
#8 The Empress of WWE has also taken James Ellsworth (176 lbs) for a spin
Becky Lynch isn’t the only woman who’s had intergender matches against James Ellsworth, as Asuka too faced the former WWE Superstar one-on-one.
During her match against Ellsworth, she lifted him atop her shoulders and took him for an Airplane Spin.
This showed just how powerful The Empress of Tomorrow is, and she could have some good intergender matches in the company if WWE decides to book them later on.
#7 WWE Superstar Nia Jax has lifted Cedric Alexander (205 lbs) and Apollo Crews (240 lbs)
Nia Jax is currently the strongest woman in the WWE female locker room, and she does not shy away from showing off her strength every now and then. We’ve seen her lift almost every single one of her opponents during her matches.
During a 205 Live tour in 2018, Jax was the referee in a match between Cedric Alexander and Enzo Amore. Alexander looked to deliver a kick to Enzo, but the heel ducked and Alexander ended up planting Jax in the face.
The Irresistible Force repaid the favor by not counting the pinfall attempt by Alexander on Enzo and delivering a Samoan Drop on the 205 lbs Superstar before pulling Enzo on top of him to count the pin.
That’s not all, as Jax has even gone on to lift her Mixed Match Tag Team partner Apollo Crews who weighs in at 240 lbs for a photoshoot. WWE has even allowed Jax to take part in the men’s Royal Rumble once, showing that they have enough trust in her to mix with the male Superstars of the company in the ring.
#6 The EST of WWE Bianca Belair has lifted her husband Montez Ford (232 lbs)
Since walking into WWE NXT, Bianca Belair has shown time and time again that she is among the fittest and strongest athlete WWE has got today. While she’s used to holding her opponents up over her head to showcase her power, what's unbelievable is that she’s even taken her husband, Montez Ford, up for a ride more than once.
Montez Ford has posed for photos for WWE while sitting atop Belair’s strong shoulders, and we’ve even seen her perform a few squats while carrying her husband showing that she is amongst the toughest women backstage.
#5 Former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey lifted Triple H (255 lbs)
Former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey is known as The Baddest Woman on the Planet for several reasons.
During her debut match against Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, Rousey got several chances to show just how powerful she is. However, the highlight was seeing her lift 13-time World Champion Triple H over her shoulders with ease and prepare to drop him before Stephanie McMahon saved her husband.
Rousey is currently away from the wrestling ring, but we could see her make a return someday to deliver more great moments in WWE.
#4 WWE NXT Superstar Rhea Ripley has carried Robert Stone (201 lbs) and Lance Storm (227 lbs)
Former WWE NXT Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley is one of the most perfectly built Superstars in WWE today. Ripley has shown just how talented and strong she is in the ring during each one of her matches, and we’ve seen her rise to new heights thanks to her physical prowess.
During an episode of WWE NXT, we saw Robert Stone approach The Nightmare to join his Robert Stone Brand, something that Ripley wasn't keen on. She lifted Stone with ease and power slammed him to teach him a lesson and end the segment.
A few weeks later, we also saw Ripley compete in a match against Stone and Aliyah and deliver some impressive moves tp Stone.
Former WWE Superstar and producer Lance Storm revealed to the WWE Universe about the time when Ripley held him in a Jackhammer for a while, even though he weighs over 220 lbs.
Ripley is just getting started in WWE, and the young Superstar has already impressed the WWE Universe with her skills
#3 WWE Superstar Bayley has delivered her finisher to Murphy (227 lbs)
Bayley has enjoyed phenomenal success in WWE, and the Superstar has managed to deliver some great moments for her fans, especially during her time in WWE NXT.
Known as The Hugger, the WWE Superstar’s finisher known as the Belly to Bayley sees her hug her opponent, lift them and deliver a slam.
That is exactly what she did to the unsuspecting Buddy Murphy during their time in NXT. During a tag team match, Bayley appeared in the ring and delivered the Belly to Bayley to Murphy before exiting immediately.
That’s not all, as we’ve also seen Bayley hug and lift her long-time friend Finn Balor off his feet during a couple of NXT live shows.
#2 WWE Superstar Xia Li can easily squat with Sheamus (250 lbs) over her shoulders
The first Chinese WWE NXT Superstar Xia Li stands only 5' 3"tall and weighs 136 lbs. Sheamus branded her as "The Beast from the Far East" after witnessing her strength.
Sheamus brought Li on his Celtic Warrior Workout Youtube Channel where he looked to gain some insight into Li’s workout regime. During the episode, Li showed her incredible strength by not only lifting the 250 lbs Celtic Warrior but also performing squats while holding him up.
A few fans have stereotyped female wrestlers over the decades, but women like Li have clearly shown that whatever the men can do, the women can do it better.
#1 Former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss has carried Sheamus
There was a time when a small portion of the WWE Universe could not stop criticizing Alexa Bliss for her in-ring work. The Goddess rose above the hate and shut each one of her critics with her amazing work in the ring which helped her become a multi-time Women’s Champion.
While Bliss has avoided pulling off too many power moves in WWE, the former bodybuilder impressed fans by carrying Sheamus on her back and walking around.
During a session with The Celtic Warrior for his YouTube Channel Celtic Warrior Workout, Bliss showed just how strong she is by carrying Sheamus on her back after completing a long workout. Standing at 5'1" tall and weighing just over 100 lbs, the former RAW and SmackDown women's champion managed to carry The Irishman who weighs two and a half times more than her.
This proves that Bliss may be the strongest pound-for-pound female Superstar in all of WWE today making this the most impressive feat of strength on this entire list.
