Mae Young Classic 2018 - get to know all 32 competitors! (Beware, #32 is a spoiler)

#26 Vanessa Kraven

Vanessa Kraven is six foot two

Montreal’s Vanessa Kraven definitely brings something very different to the tournament. Known as The Mountain as she stands at 6-foot-2, Kraven may be the most intimidating wrestler in the tournament. The Mountain has 14 years of experience under her belt, notably wrestling in Canada’s International Wrestling Syndicate (where Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn cut their teeth) and SHIMMER Women Athletes and Shine Wrestling. Kraven is a hard-hitter and her signature move is the Cliffhanger Chokebomb - a two-handed sit-out chokeslam.
