#2. Ronda Rousey (Paid $2.1 million by WWE)
The UFC Hall of Fame inductee signed with WWE in 2017 and made her debut at WrestleMania 34. She’s an accomplished athlete, winning a medal at the Olympics, and being the only woman to win a UFC and a WWE title.
Ronda Rousey is no longer signed with WWE. She was last seen losing her title to Becky Lynch at the WrestleMania 35 main-event, and nothing is known about when (or if) she’ll return. She currently enjoys live-streaming her gaming ventures.

However, there’s no denying Rousey is one of the toughest women to have set foot in a WWE ring.
#1. Becky Lynch (Paid $3.1 million by WWE)
The Man isn't just the highest paid female superstar, she’s one of the highest paid superstars in WWE. She gets paid more than Seth Rollins, who is among the highest paid male superstars in the company.
Big Time Becks signed with WWE in 2013 and competed on NXT before getting promoted to the main roster in 2015.
Her real ascent began right before Survivor Series 2018, when an accidental punch from Nia Jax broke her nose. Although she was ruled out of the pay-per-view, the picture of her walking through the crowd with blood pouring down her nose as if nothing happened won her plenty of fans, who have been loyal since.
Becky Lynch seems to have upped the ante after returning to WWE after her maternity leave. Given what The Man is capable of, she will elevate the entire division by pushing it to keep up with her.
