The weight has been an essential thing in the squared circle, especially in the men’s division. Heavyweight wrestlers are prioritized, but heavyweight female WWE female wrestlers are often overlooked. Unless a woman Superstar has an imposing look, her weight is not discussed in WWE programming.
Through different eras of the Stamford-based promotion, the fans have witnessed women’s talents of different sizes. Seeing normal-sized female wrestlers, usually weighing under 150 pounds, is a common sight for Wrestling. However, these are the heaviest female Superstars of all time to face the ring of WWE.
