2019 is about to come to a close, and we have seen a lot of action this year. We often criticize some WWE Superstars for not being the way we want them to be. However, we should understand the fact that these Superstars are travelling around the globe for around 300 days a year to entertain us.

With that being, let us take a look at the list of five WWE Superstars with the most number of matches in 2019 (as of 27th December 2019). We will consider RAW, SmackDown, NXT, PPVs, house shows (non-televised) and even the random 24/7 Title encounters for this list. So without further ado, let us shed some light on the WWE workhorses of the year 2019.


#5 Kofi Kingston - 140 matches

In 2019, Kofi Kingston arguably had his best year in WWE. Kingston won his first-ever WWE Championship (or any World Championship for that matter) after defeating "The New" Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35. He had an array of outstanding matches on his road to WrestleMania. Kingston's amazing show of willpower at Elimination Chamber 2019 and enduring multiple gauntlet matches earned him immense crowd support.

Even a humiliating loss against Brock Lesnar cannot dent Kingston's amazing run in 2019. Kingston is fifth in the list of WWE Superstars with most matches in 2019 with an astounding total of 140, five matches ahead of Charlotte Flair - who would be in 6th place if this list were longer.

Kingston managed to win 106 bouts out of his 140 attempts, earning him an impressive win rate of above 75%. Kingston also leads the chart of WWE Superstars with most televised victories in the year 2019.

#4 Seth Rollins - 145 matches

Even though the WWE fans have started turning on him, Seth Rollins is still giving his best every week.

While some WWE Superstars have a hard time beating Brock Lesnar at least once in their lifetime, Seth Rollins managed to do the impossible feat twice in the same year. Rollins embarked his 2019 voyage by winning the Men's Royal Rumble match when he last eliminated Braun Strowman. Rollins would then go on to defeat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35 to win his maiden Universal Title.

The Kingslayer lost his Universal Title to Lesnar at Extreme Rules. However, Rollins defeated Lesnar again at SummerSlam 2019 to become the Universal Champion for the second time. Rollins lost that title to The Fiend at Crown Jewel 2019 and is now a heel who sides with the Authors of Pain.

Rollins has been a part of 145 matches in 2019. Rollins also boasts a higher number of wins and a better win percentage than the previous entry on this list, Kofi Kingston. The Architect has won 112 matches in 2019 at an impressive rate of 77.2%. Had he not turned heel after Survivor Series 2019, the win percentage could have been even better. However, Rollins is just behind Kofi Kingston in the list of WWE Superstars with most televised wins in 2019.

#3 Dash Wilder - 146 matches

It is very rare to see a tag team specialist among the list of WWE Superstars with the most number of matches in a calendar year. Thus, the appearance of Dash Wilder in this list is surprising, to say the least. Seeing Wilder third in this list is even more peculiar when we take a look at the number of rumours about Vince McMahon not caring about The Revival.

Dash Wilder has been a part of 146 matches in 2019 - every single one of them being either a tag team or a multi-man match. Wilder never had a singles bout during the entire year. He also lost 91 of his bouts, closing 2019 with a low win percentage of 36.3%.


#2 Scott Dawson - 148 matches

Scott Dawson competed in two more matches than Dash Wilder.

Dash Wilder's tag team partner Scott Dawson was a part of every match in 2019 in which Wilder was involved. However, Dawson has been a part of two matches in which Wilder could not compete - one that saw R-Truth pin Dawson to win back the 24/7 Championship.

The other instance of Dawson competing without his best friend was during a house show match in Cincinnati on 26th December 2019. Wilder is reportedly injured at the moment, so Dawson found himself teaming up with Curtis Axel to challenge for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship.

Dawson's record is even worse than that of Wilder. Dawson will be regretting his decision to take part in matches without Wilder since he ended up losing both those bouts.

#1 Ricochet - 154 matches

Ricochet tops the list of WWE Superstars with most matches with a mammoth total of 154.

In 2019, WWE's Resident Superhero proved why he is one of the biggest workhorses in the company.

Ricochet has been a part of whopping 154 matches in 2019. He kicked off the list of his marquee matches this year with an outstanding bout against Johnny Gargano at NXT Takeover: Phoenix. Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter rated the match with 4.75 stars.

Ricochet got his main roster call-up soon and has been a staple on the Red Brand ever since. Being one of the best workers in WWE gave Ricochet the opportunity to top this list. Richochet's flips are nothing short of breathtaking and WWE has always tried to showcase The One and Only's amazing acrobatic ability every week.

Even though Ricochet is not the most protected Superstar in WWE, he still boasts an impressive win rate of 71.4% in 2019, thanks to a total of 110 wins during the year. Ricochet is now 6 matches ahead of Scott Dawson, who is second in the list of WWE Superstars with most matches, and will comfortably end 2019 as the WWE Superstar with the most number of contests under his belt.
