#2 Sasha Banks
Even though The Boss is just about 4 years into her entire WWE career, she has already achieved and surpassed a majority of the women of the past. Sasha Banks can also thank the timing of everything, as she is a focal point of a time period, where fans and backstage officials alike are pushing the women and giving them more and more opportunities.
The Boss is on the list primarily due to her NXT feuds as well, which shaped the Women’s Division.
She is a former NXT Women’s Champion, being the third one. In NXT, she aligned herself with Summer Rae, Charlotte, and even Becky Lynch at one point. Her initial bit began when she was feuding with Paige and even Emma was thrown into the mix.
However, her main wars in her nearly 3-year NXT run was with the Four Horsewomen, where she feuded with Charlotte, Bayley, and Becky Lynch. She won the title in a Fatal-Four-Way match at NXT Takeover: Rival, which featured all 4 horsewomen battling it out.
After that, she feuded with Becky Lynch at NXT Takeover: Unstoppable, one of the most critically acclaimed women’s matches in WWE till date.
Her peak at NXT came in her match against Bayley at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn. Sasha was already on the main roster at this point, but that did not stop her from having what is widely considered the greatest women’s match in WWE history till date. That night saw her drop the NXT Women’s Championship to Bayley.
She had her rematch against Bayley at NXT Takeover: Respect, which saw the first ever Women’s 30-minute Iron Man Match, and also saw the first time ever that women Main evented a WWE special. The match, as one can imagine, garnered immense praise from fans and critics alike.
While Sasha had a slow start on the main roster, her real featuring began on the Road to Wrestlemania, where she faced off against Charlotte and Becky Lynch at Wrestlemania 32 for the WWE Women’ s Championship, a match which many considered to be the show-stealer.
She has since become a two-time Raw Women’ s Championship, winning both times against Charlotte on Raw, the second of which was the main event of Raw.
Her epic rivalry with Charlotte came to a peak at Hell In A Cell, where the duo made history by being the first women to ever step inside Hell In A Cell, and also the first women to ever main event a WWE Pay-Per-View.
The greatest part of all of this is that she is yet to hit her peak. Sasha’s entire body of work in WWE is available on the WWE Network.
