Female wrestling has evolved a lot over time, and it wouldn't be an overstatement to say that at certain PPVs, it has provided way more entertainment than matches involving male wrestlers. WWE has certainly come a long way in terms of how female wrestlers are handled, and this has helped the franchise bolster its ratings.

Lita is part of the incredible WWE roster, and she has been included as one of the game's many legends. She has been heralded as a true icon of the Attitude Era, participating in many Steel Cage and TLC matches. In the last decade, Lita has been involved in a handful of matches, but they never led to anything major.

Recently, she teamed up with Becky Lynch as they defeated Sky and Kai in a match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. This is Lita's first title reign in a very long time, and fans will be hoping that she will continue as a champion for a few months at least.

6 Bayley (91)

Bayley is one of the three members of Damage CTRL. Out of the three, Bayley has the highest rating in the game. She is an incredible wrestler, and she has been involved in many matches that have become classics over time.

5 Ronda Rousey (93)

Ronda Rousey signed for WWE in 2018 and immediately the fans took to her. Her tenacity and ability to overwhelm her opponents made Ronda one of the most feared wrestlers in WWE. She was involved in a feud with Charlotte Flair, which bolstered her popularity.

However, her fame declined rapidly due to her limited in-ring and mic skills. Unlike the other female wrestlers, Ronda Rousey's development has stagnated, and she hasn't produced anything fresh and exciting in ages. In spite of a lackluster 2022, Ronda Rousey is rated a whopping 93 in WWE 2K23.

4 Trish Stratus (93)

Trish Stratus as a legend in WWE 2K23

Trish Stratus is widely considered to be the best female wrestler in the history of WWE. The fans adore her, and it's because of her development as a superstar over the years. Trish Stratus' athleticism and promos made her stand out from the rest. She has been given a rating of 93 in WWE 2K23, which is nothing less than what she deserves.

After hanging up her boots, she was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Since then, she has made limited appearances on WWE. Trish Stratus' most recent appearance came on RAW in February of 2023, when she helped Lita and Becky Lynch win the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. This leaves the door open to a possible big match at WrestleMania 39.

3 Charlotte Flair (94)

Considering she is the daughter of WWE legend Ric Flair, it wasn't surprising to see Charlotte Flair join the same industry as her father. Charlotte Flair is an exceptionally talented wrestler, and she is considered to be one of the best in the business.

Charlotte Flair is the current WWE SmackDown Women's Champion. She has won the title a record seven times, and she will defend it against Rhea Ripley at the upcoming WrestleMania. Charlotte Flair is rated 94 in WWE 2K23.

2 Bianca Belair (95)

Bianca Belair became the RAW Women's Champion after defeating Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38. Since then, Bianca has had to defend her title against numerous opponents, and she has been successful in all of her attempts.

With every title defense, Bianca Belair is getting closer to Becky Lynch's record as the longest-reigning RAW Women's Champion. Given her physical abilities, there is a good chance that Bianca will continue her reign even after WrestleMania 39.

1 Becky Lynch (96)

With a rating of 96, Becky Lynch is the highest-rated female wrestler in WWE 2K23. She is one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, and she holds the record for being the longest-reigning RAW Women's Champion. Becky's high rating has caused controversy within the fanbase as she is above the likes of Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair, both of whom are the current RAW and SmackDown champions, respectively.

Furthermore, Bianca has beaten Becky Lynch numerous times, so it doesn't make sense to give the latter a higher rating. Nonetheless, Becky Lynch will be an incredible option for the fans in WWE 2K23.
