5 youngest WWE Superstars on the main roster

WWE has been criticized for depending on older stars rather than younger ones. However, things have changed in Vince McMahon's company over the past few months.

Most WWE champions are 35+ years old. WWE Champion Bobby Lashley is 45, and Universal Champion Roman Reigns is 36. Both Tag Team Champions on SmackDown and RAW, the Intercontinental Champion, and the United States Champion are also over 35.

The WWE women's division is no different. Both RAW Women's Champion, Charlotte Flair, and SmackDown Women's Champion, Becky Lynch, are in their mid-30s, too. The Women's Tag Team Champions, Natalya and Tamina, are 39 and 43 consecutively.

Despite all this, WWE has promoted a few young superstars to the main roster in the past few months. The WWE main roster now has several talents in their 20s like Shotzi Blackheart and Tegan Nox, who have recently joined SmackDown. WWE also allowed a few younger talents to hold championships at some point.

Here is an updated list of the five youngest Superstars on the main roster today.

---

#5. WWE Superstar Toni Storm

Toni Storm is the fifth youngest talent on the WWE main roster. She was born on October 19, 1995, and is 25 years old.

Storm made her main roster debut less than two months ago, joining SmackDown. She defeated Zelina Vega on the July 23 episode and has not competed since. Before debuting on SmackDown, Storm had a dark match against Nox on RAW, but came up short.

On May 18, Storm bid farewell to NXT by defeating Zoey Stark in her last match. The 25-year-old was one of NXT's women's division's biggest stars. Storm won the 2018 edition of the Mae Young Classic tournament in October. A few months later, she defeated Rhea Ripley to capture the NXT UK Women's Championship. The 25-year-old reigned for 231 days before losing the title to Kay Lee Ray.

#4. WWE Superstar Humberto Carrillo

WWE Superstar Humberto Carrillo is just one day younger than Toni Storm. He was born on October 20, 1995. Carrillo is now 25 years old.

Like Storm, Carrillo signed his WWE contract in 2018. After wrestling for a few months on NXT, he started competing on 205 live. In October 2019, the 25-year-old moved to RAW.

Since debuting on the Red brand, Carrillo has tried to capture the United States Championship on several occasions. In October 2019, he challenged AJ Styles for the title at Crown Jewel but came up short. Three months later, he faced Andrade in a dark championship match at the 2020 Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Again, the Mexican superstar failed to win the title.

Carrillo went head-to-head with Andrade again the following night on RAW. Although Carrillo defeated Andrade via disqualification, he did not capture the title. The two superstars squared off for a third title match at the 2020 Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. Andrade defeated Carrillo to retain his title.

Nearly two months ago, Carrillo received another shot at the United States Championship. He challenged Sheamus for the title on the July 12 episode of RAW. For the fifth time, the 25-year-old failed to capture gold.

#3. WWE Superstar Mansoor

Mansoor is one of the newest and youngest names on the WWE main roster. Like Storm and Carillo, the Saudi wrestler was born in October 1995. However, he is three days younger than Carillo.

The 25-year-old joined WWE after participating in a WWE tryout in his home country ahead of the Greatest Royal Rumble event in 2018. Mansoor joined NXT and made his televised debut in February 2019.

In the following months, Mansoor started wrestling on 205 Live and Main Event. Earlier this year, he moved to RAW. He debuted on the May 3 episode, losing to Sheamus by disqualification. Nearly a month later, he scored his first victory on RAW over Drew Gulak.

Mansoor recently joined forces with Mustafa Ali. Last Monday, they participated in the Tag Team Turmoil match for a chance to challenge the RAW Tag Team Champions Randy Orton and Riddle for their titles. However, Mansoor and Ali lost to The New Day.

Despite the loss, Mansoor has been living a good year inside and outside the ring. In addition to his successes in the squared circle, the Saudi wrestler married his girlfriend Mia Carey last April.

#2. WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley

Rhea Ripley is one of the top superstars in WWE today. She is also the youngest superstar on Monday Night RAW. The Nightmare was born on October 11, 1996, which means she is 24 years old.

Ripley had a lot of success in NXT before moving to the main roster earlier this year. The 24-year-old is a former NXT Women's Champion and former NXT UK Women's Champion.

The Nightmare made her main roster debut on RAW last March. She went straight to challenging then-WWE RAW Women's Champion Asuka for her title at WrestleMania. The 24-year-old defeated the Japanese superstar at The Show of Shows to capture the title.

Ripley has been engaged in a feud with Charlotte Flair over the past few months. The two superstars squared off against each other several times in title matches.

At the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, Flair defeated Ripley to capture the RAW Women's Title. Flair lost the championship the following night on RAW to Nikki A.S.H. The Queen and The Nightmare faced A.S.H in a Triple-Threat title match at SummerSlam, in which Flair came out victorious.

Last Monday on RAW, Rhea Ripley teamed up with Nikki A.S.H. to defeat the Women's Tag Team Champions Natalya and Tamina.

#1. WWE Superstar Dominik Mysterio

Dominik Mysterio is the youngest superstar on the WWE main roster. He is about six months younger than Rhea Ripley, having been born on April 5, 1997. He is 24 years old.

Mysterio made his in-ring debut at the 2020 SummerSlam pay-per-view in a street fight against Seth Rollins. Although he lost the match, the son of the legendary Rey Mysterio proved that he has impressive wrestling skills.

Mysterio and his father were drafted from RAW to SmackDown during the 2020 WWE Draft. On the Blue brand, the Mysterios focused their attention on capturing the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.

Last May, Dominik captured his first championship in WWE. He teamed up with his father to defeat Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania Backlash. The Mysterios held the titles for two months before losing them to The Usos at Money in the Bank.

Dominik and Rey Mysterio continue to compete as a team on SmackDown. Last Friday, they teamed up with Big E, King Nakamura, and Rick Boogs to defeat Apollo Crews, Dolph Ziggler, Otis, Robert Roode, and Sami Zayn.
