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.

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.
