Pro wrestling fans across the world always have a common debate, and that is who is the best wrestler in the world today. Former WWE Champion Kurt Angle was one of the best wrestlers of his era. In a recent chat during the ‘Kurt Angle Podcast’, the WWE Hall of Famer picked a surprising WWE Superstar as the best wrestler in the women’s division right now.
Women’s wrestling has evolved a lot in the last few years. Thanks to Stephanie McMahon’s efforts, the women brought about a revolution in the world of professional wrestling. The four horsewomen and other female Superstars from the indies have transformed the way fans look at women’s wrestling.
Over the last few years, women’s wrestlers have delivered some incredible matches in the squared circle. They have even got the opportunity to main-event WrestleMania. When asked to pick the best women’s wrestler in the world, Kurt Angle said:
“(Mercedes Moné) is a good one to pick. That would be my favorite female (outside of WWE). Listen, I love Charlotte Flair. I think she’s the best of all time. I actually think she’s the best wrestler in the world overall, I really do.”
Who is the best wrestler in the world?
As far as women’s professional wrestling is concerned, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks, now known as Mercedes Mone, are among the best wrestlers. They had a fantastic rivalry in the year 2016 for the RAW Women’s Championship, where they competed in the first-ever women’s Hell in a Cell, main-evented RAW and also had an Iron Woman match.

Several reports claimed that Flair and Banks would have headlined WrestleMania 38 for the SmackDown Women’s Championship had Ronda Rousey not made her last-minute return. While Flair is still in WWE, Mone has moved to other promotions, including New Japan Pro Wrestling.
