I got to contribute to this and it was delightful!!!!
Happy international women’s day!
Here are some badass women’s wrestlers. I highly encourage everyone to check out this list; these women are all gems, but maybe a few will speak to your heart. 🫶🏼🩵
I nominated the 20 who are the best, in my opinion, and I’ll stand by it
Woo hoo, today is also International Women's Wrestlers Day!
#Wrestlesky and podcast vet @awfullywaffly.bsky.social was involved and wrote three of the bios, including @harleycameron.bsky.social.
But you'll have to read it to see where Miss Most Improved of 2025 ranked. ;)
I would have posted earlier but was at EVE's Wrestle Queendom where many of the talents on this list wrestled.
What started as my watching an EVE show and going "we need to talk about these people more" turned into this.
Make no mistake: many, if not all, of the best women’s wrestlers in the world are on the list, and the top 10 is pretty undeniable, but we also hope you learn some new names, check out their work and find a new “Special Little Guy” to follow and enjoy.

Our FIRST EVER Social Suplex Women’s 50 is LIVE!
Why did we make a list of 50 women wrestlers? Because lists are fun, but more importantly, there’s a lot of incredible women’s wrestling all over the world and we wanted to shine a light on those we enjoyed the most in 2025.
Lastly, special thanks to our in house photographer Chris Gannon for providing so many incredible photos for this issue.
