In today's world of professional wrestling, there are more than a handful of wrestlers that began their WWE careers at a very young age. WWE veterans like Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar captured their first world title at a very young age and they went on to win multiple championships later in their careers. Even though some young superstars are still competing in the WWE Performance Centre and 205 Live, they are yet to make an impact on the main roster.

There is no specific age to start out as a professional wrestler. Most superstars began their careers at 16-18 years old and others started out as young as 13 years old. As more wrestlers make it to the WWE, they look to make their mark in the biggest wrestling and sports entertainment company in the world. The following is a list of the youngest superstars in WWE right now and it only consists of superstars on the main roster, mainly Raw and Smackdown Live.
Here are the youngest WWE superstars in the current roster with their current ages (as of 28 March 2019).

#5 Sonya Deville (25 years old)
Sonya Deville is one of the most underrated female WWE Superstars in the company right now. Having a background in mix martial arts, she became a contestant in WWE Tough Enough in the 2015 season, where she came in eleventh. In 2015, she signed a contract with WWE and was assigned to the Performance Center to become where she trained to become a professional wrestler.
She then joined WWE's developmental territory NXT in 2015, but her run in the black and white brand was underwhelming. Deville made her main roster debut on Raw in 2017 alongside former Divas Champion Paige and Mandy Rose as they attacked Sasha Banks, Bayley, Mickie James and Alexa Bliss.
The stable was officially recognised under the name Absolution. During the 2018 WWE Superstar Shake-up, Deville and Mandy were drafted to the blue brand where they are currently competing as Fire and Desire. Although all the spotlight goes to God's Greatest Creation, perhaps we could see Deville shine in the future.
#4 Sarah Logan (25 years old)
What can be said about The Viking Princess Sarah Logan? She is best known as a member of the villainous Riott Squad stable on Raw. When she was signed to WWE, she was part of the NXT roster for a while and then she went on to compete at the Mae Young Classic.
Logan was then kept away from TV for a number of months before she made her main roster debut alongside Liv Morgan and Ruby Riott as part of The Riott Squad on an episode of SmackDown Live.
The trio has since been moved over to Raw and is now set to be pushed into the main picture in the women's division and they are one of the favourites to win the upcoming WWE Women's Tag Team Championships.
Only the future knows what WWE will have in store for Sarah Logan. Perhaps she could receive a push as a singles competitor and even capture the Raw or Smackdown Women's Championship.
#3 Rezar (24 years old)
Former WWE Raw and NXT tag team champion Rezar currently performs on the Raw brand with his tag team partner Akam as the Authors of Pain, with their manager Drake Maverick. He signed a contract with WWE in May 2015 and immediately began training in the WWE Performance Centre to become a professional wrestler.
He formed a tag team with Akam on February 2016 and together as The Authors of Pain they made their televised debuts at NXT TakeOver: The End by Attacking American Alpha before leaving backstage with Paul Ellering.
Rezar is a former mix martial artist. He competed in MMA promotions like BAMMA and Bellator MMA before joining WWE. He is also a former kickboxer, winning the Pro World Heavyweight Championship in 2013 after an 8-man tournament in one night. PWI ranked him #211 of the top 500 singles wrestlers in the PWI 500 in 2018.
#2 Liv Morgan (24 years old)
Liv Morgan makes the list as the youngest female WWE Superstar currently competing on the main roster. Morgan was one of the youngest wrestlers to sign with the company in 2014 and she has been able to work her way through the ranks as a former NXT superstar who is now competing as a heel on RAW.
The youngster made her main roster debut on SmackDown Live alongside Sarah Logan and Ruby Riott. The trio formed a villainous team known as The Riott Squad. Morgan was drafted to Raw following the Superstar Shake-up along with the other two members of The Riott Squad and together they could become the first ever WWE Women's Tag Team Champions - according to the "Freebird" rule.
Morgan certainly has a lot of in-ring talent and even though she did not accomplish much in her early career in NXT, there’s no doubt that she might receive a shot at the Raw or Smackdown Women’s Championship later on in the future.
#1 Lio Rush (24 years old)
Even though Rezar and Liv are also 24 years old, Lio Rush is still the youngest. Lio Rush made his first televised appearance on the October 4 episode of WWE NXT in 2017, where he was attacked by The Velveteen Dream (his former tag team partner Patrick Clark). Rush was defeated by Dream in a match a few weeks later on NXT.
Rush then moved to the cruiserweight division and after weeks of vignettes, he made his in-ring and televised debut as a heel on 205 Live in June this year. He later started a feud with Akira Tozawa and picked up a win over the former Cruiserweight Champion.
He is currently the mouthpiece of the current Intercontinental Champion Bobby Lashley. He competes on 205 Live and manages Lashley on Raw. Rush could capture the WWE Cruiserweight Championship in the future as he is one of the best competitors in the division.
At the age of just 24 years old, Rush is currently the youngest superstar on the main roster in WWE.
