Top 10 Female Wrestlers Of The Decade

#8 AJ Lee

AJ Lee

Debuting during an era dominated by Divas, AJ Lee did an amazing job of standing out from the pack.

A competitor during Season Three of the original NXT Series, Lee originally came across as a lower card superstar upon her debut on the WWE roster.

It wasn't until her partnership with then World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan that she made her impact known.

During the year 2012, she became the standout in the rivalry between Bryan, CM Punk and Kane. Despite criticisms that her character portrayed mental health issues in the wrong light, you couldn't help but admire how Lee made it work on screen.

Such was her talent that she successfully reinvented herself soon after as a hell figure alongside Dolph Ziggler. Making use of their hired hand Big E Langston, she would dominate the women's division in WWE for most of 2013 and 2014.

This period saw her constantly at wit's end with the cast of Total Divas, who she would cut her version of a Pipebomb promo on, one of several fantastic bits of mic work she did throughout her time in the company.

Her retirement in 2015 came far too soon for many of her fans. But with relations eased between WWE and her now-husband CM Punk, hopefully, we will see her cement her legacy further in the years and months to come.
