Top 10 Best Male Wrestlers In WWE In 2023: After years of what felt like a product muddled with uninteresting stories and out-of-left-field booking, the arrival of Triple H as the head booker of the product in June 2022 seems to have brought some excitement and freshness to WWE’s weekly TV presentation.

In this new era of booking, several wrestlers have been given a new polish in terms of their character, while new stars are being pushed to the main event too. Today, we will look at 10 of the best male WWE wrestlers in 2023.

This list includes superstars who have had the spotlight shone on them this year. These stars have carried the product to the state it is in today. While most of these stars are on the list due to their exploits in 2023, some of them have made it based on their existing star power and what they have done in the recent past. 

The list will only include full-time wrestlers, which means no John Cena, no Brock Lesnar, and no recently-returning Rock.

Top 10 Best Male Wrestlers In WWE In 2023 – Honourable Mention – LA Knight

Arguably the wrestler with the loudest crowd reactions in 2023, LA Knight has been one of the most popular WWE wrestlers this year. His Attitude Era-esque gimmick and promo skill have resonated with old and new fans alike.

The Judgment Day

With a mega-push seemingly on the horizon, the only roadblock that can come between him and a future world title run is his age, as the 40-year-old spent much of his 30s in Impact Wrestling.

Still, LA Knight is a massive crowd favorite, whom WWE can use to awaken a crowd at any point in a show.

10. Drew McIntyre

To be fair, Drew McIntyre has had a relatively slow 2023. The Scottish Superstar spent most of the year without a storyline, with rumors popping up about him potentially leaving WWE, which have since been debunked. 

But one can never shoot down the star power of Drew McIntyre. The company’s biggest European star, McIntyre carried WWE during their lowest time, the pandemic Era.

As far as 2023 is concerned, Drew McIntyre had two awesome matches for the Intercontinental Championship, the triple-threat at WrestleMania with Gunther and Sheamus, and a singles meeting with the Ring General at SummerSlam. The 28-year-old is now looking down the pipe at a heel turn.

9. Finn Balor (Damien Priest and Dominik Mysterio)

Judgment Day has emerged as the most dominant faction in WWE since the downfall of The Bloodline. As the most experienced and popular member of the group, Finn Balor deserves a place on this list, although, this spot could’ve been given to either – Damien Priest or Dominik Mysterio.

Finn Balor, after revitalizing his career as part of The Judgment Day, was in a riveting storyline with the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins over the belt. The storyline touched on their rivalry for the Universal Championship seven years ago.

As for Damien Priest, he won the Money In The Bank match and will be eyeing a run with a world title shortly. Dominik Mysterio, on the other hand, won the NXT North American Championship and gets some of the loudest reactions whenever he is on screen. Not mentioning Rhea Ripley, the WWE Women’s World Champion, there would also be a criminal.

8. Edge

The most experienced superstar on the roster, Edge has been playing the role of an old gunslinger returning for a final duel ever since his WWE return at the 2020 Royal Rumble. Now in the twilight of his career, Edge has been giving fans dream matches with wrestlers we never thought he would get to wrestle against. 

With the rumors that Edge might be leaving WWE soon, we can look back at his 2023 and see his epic Hell In A Cell match with Finn Balor at WrestleMania 39, and what can be his final WWE match, a SmackDown classic with Sheamus.

7. Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens is one of the most reliable hands in WWE at the moment, who can be trusted with mid-card and main event programs alike. In 2023 the Canadian was a satellite member of the biggest storyline in all of wrestling, The Bloodline saga. 

It was the Bloodline’s attack on Kevin Owens that led to Sami Zayn’s defection from the faction at the Royal Rumble. At WrestleMania, Sami and Kevin defeated the Usos in the main event of Night One to end their record-breaking reign as the Tag Team Champions.

Kevin Owens was most recently part of a barnstormer of a tag team match, where he and Sami Zayn lost the tag titles to The Judgment Day.

6. Gunther

The Intercontinental Champion is certainly a future mega-star for the company. Whenever Gunther wrestles on a card, he can be relied upon to give the best match of the night. 

Now having broken The Honky Tonk Man’s record for the longest reigning IC Champion, Gunther is looked upon as a future World Champion. Listing all the great matches the Austrian has had this year would be a long ordeal, but his WrestleMania match against Drea McIntyre and Sheamus, and his recent bouts with Chad Gable are must-watches.

Not to mention, Gunther did break Rey Mysterio’s record for the longest stay in a traditional Royal Rumble, as he spent a whopping 71 minutes in the 2023 Royal Rumble.

5. Jey Uso

‘Main Event Jey’ has silently been one of the MVPs in WWE (not that one). Having been there right at the start of The Bloodline-saga, Jey has seen his stock rise in the company over the past three years. 

Despite having a record-breaking run as Tag Team Champions with his brother Jimmy, Jey’s characterization in The Bloodline story has been far more intriguing. 

In Top 10 Best Male Wrestlers In WWE In 2023, Jey Uso recently ‘main-evented’ SummerSlam alongside the undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and only lost because of Jimmy Uso’s betrayal. Jey is now on a collision course with his twin at next year’s WrestleMania and has emerged as a likely World Champion in the future.

4. Sami Zayn

Arguably the best part of The Bloodline storyline, the fans have seen Sami Zayn transform from a comedy mid-carder to one of the most popular guys on the roster in less than a year.

His role in The Bloodline went from a clinger to an ‘Honorary Uce’, to a defector. Sami then played a major role in the dissolution of The Bloodline. It was his and Kevin Owens’ defeat of Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa which resulted in The Usos leaving the faction.

Sami Zayn ‘main-evented’ Night One of WrestleMania 39 and spent much of the year as one-half of the Tag Team Champions and an integral part of the weekly product.

3. Seth Rollins

As per the Top 10 Best Male Wrestlers In WWE In 2023, Seth Rollins looked like the biggest victim of Roman Reigns’ stranglehold on the world titles for over a year. In the three years since Roman started his historic reign as the Universal Champion, Seth Rollins has re-emerged as one of the most exciting members of the roster by reinventing his character.

After all he had done in the past couple of years, Seth Rollins deserved a world title run. So it was a sigh of relief for Rollins fans when WWE unveiled the new World Heavyweight Championship, which Seth promptly won.

In 2023, Seth Rollins has had great matches with Finn Balor, Logan Paul, and Shinsuke Nakamura.

2. Cody Rhodes

Although Cody Rhodes did not ‘finish the story’ at WrestleMania 39 against Roman Reigns, he is still the biggest babyface in WWE. The former EVP of All Elite Wrestling is currently an uber-popular part of the WWE roster and is still expected to end Roman’s historic World Championship reign.

The 2023 Royal Rumble winner and WrestleMania Night Two main-eventer, Cody Rhodes has since been in a rivalry of three solid matches with Roman Reigns, and will now make an ascent to the main event once more.

Cody Rhodes has also been one of WWE’s biggest faces on a global level with him regularly opening shows with a promo to rile the crowd up.

1. Roman Reigns

In Top 10 Best Male Wrestlers In WWE In 2023, The Tribal Chief, The Head of The Table, The Head of The Bloodline, and the longest-reigning World Champion in the modern era, Roman Reigns’ run as the world champion has been the greatest WWE story of the 21st century.

What can be said about Roman Reigns that has not been said a million times? In his time at the top, WWE has revitalized their weekly product, the business is at an all-time high, and fan interest in the product has been the highest in years.

2023 has seen Roman break the 1000-day mark as the World Champion, main event WrestleMania 39 and defeat Cody Rhodes in the main event, oversee the downfall of The Bloodline and the subsequent match with Jey Uso at SummerSlam, and is now expected to stretch his reign all the way to WrestleMania 40.
