WWE is a wrestling promotion where the WWE Superstars need to put every ounce of their energy to travel all around the world and entertain the WWE Universe. With the company extending its fan base outside the USA as well, the Superstars now have to travel to foreign countries every now and then.

Recently, WWE had a pay-per-view event in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia and in the coming weeks they have a Japan tour lined up. In October, they will visit Australia before visiting Saudi Arabia and United Kingdom in the closing stages of 2019. The marquee Superstars like Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, Goldberg have a lighter schedule as compared to the other stars who even perform at WWE Live Events every week.

These Superstars are the reason behind the success of WWE. In this article, we will have a look at the 5 WWE superstars who have wrestled the most matches in 2019 so far -


#5 Scott Dawson - 72 matches

Though the Revival is often referred as the most under-utilized tag team in WWE, the truth is they have wrestled the most tag team matches in 2019! No other tag team has been a part of 70 matches this year whilst Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson have wrestled 71 matches.

Dash and Dawson always take part in tag team matches together however, on the kick-off show of Royal Rumble 2019, Scott Dawson teamed up with AOP member, Rezar in a weird RAW tag team championship match against Bobby Roode and Chad Gable. This match has allowed Scott Dawson to overtake his partner in terms of wrestling the most matches in the squared circle.

The Revival are the reigning RAW tag team championships and also a part of Shane McMahon's new heel faction.

#4 Ricochet - 72 matches

NXT graduate, Ricochet has been one of the best Superstars to step foot inside the ring. His unmatched in-ring skills have forced the WWE creatives to book him to wrestle every now and then. Even if King Ricochet is not a part of any storyline, he gets enough TV time to wow the WWE Universe with his wrestling abilities.

Ricochet was a part of NXT when the year 2019 began and he received a sudden call-up to the main roster along with his tag team partner, Aleister Black. The pair of Black and Ricochet had won the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and in the WrestleMania week, they made history by challenging for the RAW tag team titles, the NXT tag team titles and the SmackDown tag team championships in the time frame of 7 nights.

The workhorse Ricochet has received his first singles title shot on the main roster and he will challenge the US Champion, Samoa Joe this Sunday at Stomping Grounds.

When the year 2019 started, nobody expected New Day member Kofi Kingston to win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 35; not even Vince McMahon would have planned this when the year kicked off but an untimely injury to Ali opened the door for Kofi Kingston.

The former tag team champion gave a performance of a lifetime in a gauntlet match on SmackDown Live. He even put up a stellar show at WWE Elimination Chamber, which was enough for both the WWE Universe and Vince McMahon to start believing in 'Kofi-Mania'.

Kingston captured the WWE Championship from the new Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35. The Dreadlocked Dynamo has then defended his title on both RAW and SmackDown Live against anyone who has stepped up. His next title defense will take place inside a steel cage, where Kofi will be locked with Dolph Ziggler.

Many WWE fans had expected Drew McIntyre to win the WWE Universal Championship by mid-2019 but instead, WWE have reduced him to the role of Shane McMahon's sidekick. The Scottish Psychopath has transformed from a no-nonsense heel to a superstar who loves to celebrate and party after his boss wins. The McIntyre-McMahon duo has dominated WWE of late but still the Chosen One deserved much better booking than this.

Nevertheless, he has continued to be a loyal superstar and has took part in 77 matches thus far in 2019. He has been a part of every pay-per-view in one way or the other but he is yet to record his first pay-per-view victory in the year 2019.

It is being speculated that the alliance between Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre will continue at least until Extreme Rules where they will battle in a handicap match against Roman Reigns.

Surprise, Surprise! It's not the Universal Champion, Seth Rollins at the top nor is the RAW Women's Champion, Becky Lynch. The man or rather the WWE superstar who has wrestled the most matches in 2019 so far is the Lone Wolf, Baron Corbin. The former United States Champion has been an integral part of Monday Night RAW ever since he got the role of the show's Constable.

In 2019, the fans witnessed the biggest moment of Baron Corbin's WWE career when he retired Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 35. His consistent performances have helped him climb to the top of the chain and he is currently engrossed in a feud with the Universal Champion Seth Rollins.

While the chances of Corbin winning the title at Stomping Grounds are negligible, no one knows Vince McMahon may decide to reward him for his 79 wrestling encounters in 2019!
