5 Current WWE Women over the age of 40 who are physically in their prime

#1. Former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Shayna Baszler

Shayna Baszler is still one of the most dominant forces in WWE after signing for the company following a career in MMA.

The former Women's Champion currently performs on SmackDown, where she is part of the feud between Naomi and Sonya Deville. Interestingly, The Queen of Spades didn't make her WWE debut until 2015, when she was already 35 years old.

Now at the age of 41, Baszler is still one of the most featured female superstars with an entire arsenal of submissions at her disposal. WWE may be looking to create its own stars moving forward and refusing to look at any women over the age of 25, but Baszler is a fantastic example of the fact that women can still get into the business late.

Baszler is in incredible shape as well, since the former Women's Champion wrestles for WWE on a regular basis. She also often shows updates on her Instagram that prove that she spends a lot of time in the gym.
