Who were pushed as the best wrestlers regardless of actual real-life talent? Which men and women drew the most money?

10 WWE Wrestlers Who Had The Look (But Never Got The Push)

Even though these WWE wrestlers had everything to succeed, including a great look, the company didn’t push them to the top.

Just for fun, this article considers another dimension—who were the most successful blond performers in WWE history? Looking at 13 women and 13 men who fit the description, this article takes a tour through different periods in company history to evaluate the question.

Liv Morgan

Morgan Was The WWE Women’s Wrestler Of 2024

Liv Morgan is finally getting the recognition she deserves, as she has proven to be the workhorse of the women’s division. Liv is a two-time Women’s World Champion, and she defeated Becky Lynch for her second reign with the title at King and Queen of the Ring 2024. She was unquestionably WWE’s female wrestler of the year, and she cemented her dominance by defeating SmackDown’s WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax to become the inaugural WWE Women’s Crown Jewel Champion.

Her Women’s World Championship reign was curtailed by Rhea Ripley on the Netflix premiere of Raw in January 2025. Nevertheless, Liv continued to make history as, alongside Raquel Rodriguez, they became the first pair to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship three times. Liv is a two-time women’s Royal Rumble match runner-up, and she finished second best in the women’s Elimination Chamber match in 2024 and 2025, but she has showcased her resiliency several times to bounce back from adversity.

Dolph Ziggler

Ziggler Was A Two-Time World Champion In WWE

Dolph Ziggler spent almost two decades in WWE, and his career was nothing short of extraordinary. Ziggler’s a former two-time World Heavyweight Champion, but the Showoff’s World Heavyweight Championship reigns should have lasted longer than they did.

WWE never truly pulled the trigger on Ziggler to be a certified main eventer, and there were several chances when they could have. Nevertheless, Ziggler’s resume speaks for itself as a former Grand Slam Champion, and Ziggler is currently wrestling in TNA.

Molly Holly

Molly Is A Natural Blonde

Molly Holly is one of the most underrated in-ring wrestlers in WWE history. She began her run in WWE in 2000 and was introduced as one-third of the Holly Cousins, with Crash and Hardcore Holly as her cousins. Molly’s hair was blonde in the early stages of her career, but she changed it for an autumn brown when she turned heel in 2002.

Molly won the WWE Women’s Championship two times, and her second reign with the title lasted seven months. She dropped the title to Victoria, but at WrestleMania 20, in a bid to regain the Women’s Championship, she selflessly put her hair on the line. Molly lost the hair-versus-hair match, and her head was shaved bald. Ultimately, she sported a blonde wig, and Molly was rightfully inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021.

Mr. Perfect

Perfect Was One Of The Best Technical Wrestlers In History

Mr. Perfect was one of the greatest in-ring wrestlers to grace a WWE ring. He’s one of the best wrestlers to hold the Intercontinental Championship, which he did so proudly two times. Perfect’s in the conversation for being one of the all-time greats never to win the WWE Championship.

Perfect and Bobby “The Brain” Heenan were the perfect double act. They could both speak on the mic, were excellent heels, and knew how to garner heat. Perfect’s bleach-blond hair was recognizable, and he engaged in some legendary battles with Bret Hart, notably at SummerSlam 1991 and the 1993 King of the Ring. Unfortunately, Perfect passed away at just 44, but his son Curtis Axel continued his legacy and followed in his footsteps by winning the Intercontinental Championship in 2013.

Natalya

Natalya Is One Of The Most Underrated Women’s Wrestlers In WWE History

Natalya had tons of pressure to excel in WWE as she is a third-generation wrestler. She’s the daughter of Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart, the niece of Bret Hart, and Stu Hart’s granddaughter. Natalya is the self-proclaimed BOAT (Best of All Time), and she’s a remarkable technical wrestler.

Natalya is a two-time Women’s World Champion with one reign apiece as SmackDown Women’s Champion and Divas Champion. She’s also held the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship once alongside Tamina. Natalya is a reliable worker, and she may not feature prominently in storylines anymore, but she’s good to have around in the locker room.

Kevin Nash

Nash Held The WWE Championship For Almost 1 Year In 1995

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash has had many looks throughout his WWE career. The former WWE Champion has had blonde hair, brown hair, black hair, and gray hair. Nash’s long blonde locks are one of his iconic looks, and the two-time WWE Hall of Famer was one of the most important wrestlers in the ’90s.

Nash wasted no time in becoming a Triple Crown Champion in 1994 as he secured the WWE, Intercontinental Championship, and the WWE Tag Team Championship with Shawn Michaels. He left WWE for WCW in 1996, and six years later, he returned as the leader of the nWo. Nash moves well for a man of his height, and he deserves his two WWE Hall of Fame rings.

Rhea Ripley

The Eradicator Currently Has Black Hair

Rhea Ripley is currently one of the top female babyfaces in the women’s locker room. Ripley started her WWE career with blonde hair, but when she turned heel in 2022 and joined the Judgment Day, she incorporated a gothic look with black hair.

Rhea Ripley’s Body Transformation Over The Years, Told In Photos

Rhea Ripley’s physique has evolved over the years as her star has grown in WWE. These photos are an effective way of seeing that transformation.

Ripley is still only 28, and she is a Grand Slam Champion. Ripley sustained a shoulder injury when she was in her record-breaking 380-day reign as the Women’s World Champion. Ripley regained the Women’s World Championship from Liv Morgan on the first episode of Raw to broadcast live on Netflix on January 6, 2025, but Iyo Sky curtailed her title reign on Raw’s March 3, 2025, edition.

Cody Rhodes

The American Nightmare Is Thriving In His First WWE World Championship Reign

When Cody Rhodes returned to WWE at WrestleMania 38 after his stint as an EVP in AEW, he received a deafening ovation. The American Nightmare finally returned home after being away from WWE for six years, and he was treated like a main eventer.

Cody had black hair during his first run in WWE, but he dyed his hair blonde, which is now synonymous with the American Nightmare character. Cody finished the story at WrestleMania 40 when he curtailed Roman Reigns’ historic 1,316-day reign as the Undisputed WWE Champion. Rhodes has received criticism for his World Championship reign, but he has overcome the likes of AJ Styles, Logan Paul, Solo Sikoa, and Kevin Owens thus far. He’s set to defend his title against John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania 41.

Torrie Wilson

Torrie Never Won The WWE Women’s Championship

Torrie Wilson may not have been the best in-ring performer, but she was a blonde bombshell. Torrie had a successful WWE career, and she rightfully earned her spot in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019.

Torrie retired from the squared circle in 2008 but competed in a couple of women’s Royal Rumble matches in 2018 and 2021, respectively. The WWE Universe were fans of Torrie, and she was a mainstay on SmackDown for a large chunk of her WWE career.

Christian

Christian Became A Grand Slam Champion In 2011

Christian is one of the greatest in-ring performers in WWE history. Captain Charisma is a Grand Slam Champion and while his two World Heavyweight Championship reigns may not have been the greatest, Christian got over the line as a World Champion in WWE, which some wrestlers have failed to achieve.

These WWE wrestlers have a long resume of accomplishments, having won a World Championship and plenty of Tag Team gold!

His legendary tag team with his real-life best friend Edge in the 2000s was superb, as they won the WWE World Tag Team Championship seven times. Christian returned to in-ring competition in 2021, seven years after he retired from a concussion. Christian is currently in AEW, arguably doing some of the best work of his wrestling career, and at 51, he is showing no signs of slowing down any time soon.

Alexa Bliss

The Goddess Returned To WWE At The 2025 Royal Rumble

Alexa Bliss’ WWE career is Hall of Fame worthy as she was the first woman to win the then SmackDown and Raw Women’s Championships. The Goddess’ WWE career has been up and down, but there have been a plethora of high moments for Bliss.

Bliss is a Triple Crown Winner, and at her best, she’s a formidable competitor inside the squared circle. Bliss sometimes doesn’t get the credit she deserves, and she is one of the most successful women in WWE history, with many championship reigns and accolades to her name. She returned to WWE for the first time in two years in the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble match, and she received a huge ovation. She was featured in the women’s Elimination Chamber match, with the winner going on to challenge for the Women’s World Championship, but she was eliminated by Liv Morgan.

Triple H

The Game Has Had Success Inside The Ring And As The Head Of The Creative

Triple H has had many looks throughout his legendary WWE career, but the Game is synonymous with having blonde hair. In the late 90s and early 2000s, Triple H had blonde locks. Every WWE fan recognizes Triple H with his long hair, but he cut it in 2012.

Triple H is excelling in his role as the Head of Creative, but his in-ring wrestling career was outstanding. Triple H is a 14-time WWE World Champion, and he is in the WWE Hall of Fame alongside DX. The Game is an iconic legend in the business, and he continues to be heavily involved in WWE. He’s set to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame individually in 2025, and he thoroughly deserves it.

Michelle McCool

McCool Is A Four-Time WWE Women’s Champion

Michelle McCool doesn’t get the credit she deserves for the WWE career she carved out for herself. McCool has the honor of becoming the first-ever WWE Divas Champion, a championship she would go on to hold twice. McCool also captured the WWE Women’s Championship two times, which makes her a four-time WWE Women’s Champion.

10 WWE Wrestlers Who Won A Championship As Both A Babyface & A Heel

It’s hard for any wrestler to win a WWE title. But some legendary performers have been fortunate enough to hold the same title as both face and heel.

She may be the wife of The Undertaker, and she has received unfair criticism as many think she got her high positions in the company because of Undertaker. McCool was a great heel, and working alongside Layla as LayCool, they were the perfect double act. McCool knew how to perform inside the squared circle, and like Triple H, she earned her spot in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2025.

Chris Jericho

Jericho Currently Wrestles In AEW As The Learning Tree

There’s one man who defines the word reinventing, and that’s Chris Jericho. Whether Y2J had his blonde hair long or short, Jericho thrived in whatever role was handed to him. Jericho is an exceptional heel, and he could play as a babyface well, but more importantly, changing his character allowed him to remain relevant and be on top for years. Jericho currently competes in AEW, but there’s no doubt that he will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame one day.

Jericho’s marquee feud with Shawn Michaels in 2008 was outstanding, and he rightfully won a Slammy Award for being the Superstar of the Year. He’s the first-ever Undisputed WWE Champion, and beating The Rock and Steve Austin in back-to-back matches to achieve that feat is remarkable. Not many can hold that accolade, but Jericho had the total package with his exceptional mic skills backing up his in-ring work.

Trish Stratus

The WWE Hall Of Famer Wrestled Recently Competed At Elimination Chamber: Toronto

Though Trish Stratus debuted as a fitness model with little to offer wrestling purists, she developed steadily as a professional wrestler over the years. Whether she was playing a devilish heel or a never-say-die face, she emerged as the face of women’s wrestling in WWE for her era.

It’s a testament to Stratus’ abilities that she not only thrived in her peak years as a wrestler from the early to mid-2000s but has also been able to return for one-off angles and matches without missing a step. Her SummerSlam match with Charlotte Flair, in particular, proved that Stratus could hang with the better-developed women’s division of the modern era.

Trish returned to in-ring competition in 2023 and hasn’t lost a step inside the ring. Her feud with Becky Lynch was remarkable, and the WWE Hall of Famer turned heel once again, proving that she can still hang with the very best in the business. She competed in the 2025 women’s Royal Rumble match and wrestled in her hometown of Toronto alongside the WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton, in a winning effort against Nia Jax and Candice LeRae.

Brock Lesnar

Lesnar’s Trademark Blonde Hair Has Remained Constant In His Looks

Not many people take the time to think about Brock Lesnar’s hair color. Indeed, The Beast keeps his hair short, fitting with his persona as pragmatic and straightforward—he’s not concerned with his looks so much as being a dominant monster of a wrestler.

Lesnar does have blond hair, though, which has remained consistent throughout his time in WWE. In limiting the pool of wrestlers to blondes, Lesnar immediately jumps toward the very top of the list of WWE’s most iconic male performers of all time.

Alundra Blayze

Blayze Dominated The Women’s Division In The New Generation Era

Alundra Blayze starred in WWE’s women’s division in an odd, all-too-often forgotten time. In the mid-’90s, WWE itself was in a period of transition. Blayze was never as iconic as The Fabulous Moolah, Wendi Richter, or Sensational Sherri from an era before her. Nor did she arrive at the same popularity as Attitude Era favorites like Trish Stratus or Lita.

Just the same, Blayze was a serious athlete who more or less single-handedly carried the women’s division across a period of years, working opposite a rotating cast of heels. Her hard-hitting offense and ability to cut a pace in a ring largely left her without peer among American female wrestlers at the time.

Ric Flair

The Two-Time WWE Hall Of Famer Has Wrestled In Many Promotions

No discussion of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time is complete without Ric Flair. Though the best of his work happened outside WWE, he nonetheless had a distinguished run in WWE as well, including his 1992 world title reigns and his tenure in the twilight of his career during the 2000s.

A signature aspect of Flair’s look was his platinum blond hair. So, in considering the greatest blond performers in WWE history, it is impossible to deny him a place on the list.

Beth Phoenix

The Glamazon Was One Of The Youngest Hall Of Fame Inductees

Beth Phoenix is one of the strongest female wrestlers in WWE history. The Glamazon did a great job as the WWE Women’s Champion during her time on Raw. Phoenix was a marquee name in the latter stages of the Ruthless Aggression era, and she stuck around for parts of the PG era.

WWE has featured some major powerhouses in the women’s division throughout the company’s history!

Phoenix was way ahead of her time, and she carried the women’s division on her shoulders in 2008 when she should have held the Women’s Championship for a calendar year. She was hard-hitting and brought physicality to the women’s division at a time when women’s wrestling was overlooked. Phoenix’s alliance with fellow blonde wrestler Natalya in the Divas of Doom was a match made in Heaven. Nonetheless, The Glamazon formerly commentated on NXT, and sporadically, she gets inside the ring for Royal Rumble matches, but she can still hang with the very best.

Edge

The Rated-R Superstar Sported Short And Long Hair Throughout His Career

One of the greatest heels in WWE history is the Rated-R Superstar Edge. Edge went on another level after he captured his first WWE Championship against John Cena after he cashed in his Money in the Bank contract. The Ultimate Opportunist’s accolades speak for themselves, as he is an 11-time WWE World Champion and a 14-time WWE Tag Team Champion, amongst other championship wins.

Edge is a brilliant in-ring performer, and he transitioned from a great tag team wrestler into a certified main eventer. Edge is a natural blonde with long locks, synonymous with his identity, and he briefly cut his hair short before he grew it back. The Rated-R Superstar cuts some of the best promos, and the WWE Hall of Famer left WWE in the summer of 2023 and has joined AEW, where he is a two-time AEW TNT Champion.
