Very few female athletes have found extreme success in WWE. Under Vince McMahon, most were seen as mere eye candies. After recently much has changed, and it now involves men and female superstars being treated equally. Under Triple H however, several female WWE superstars have emerged, such as Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch.

Both Lynch and Flair are two of the most popular women athletes in WWE today. However, Flair has something else, that Becky failed to have. Flair is a 14-time world champion and is the woman with the highest number of championship reigns, much like her father.
