In the realm of professional wrestling, WWE is the biggest organization. It has included some of the most famous and important matches and events in the historical past of sports culture, as well as some of the most popular wrestlers and plotlines. Presently, WWE hosts at least 12 pay-per-view events annually, including WrestleMania, and hosts about 320 live events worldwide each year. It also airs popular shows like Raw and SmackDown in more than 150 countries. When WWE was created in 1953 as Capitol Wrestling Corporation, its history began in the early 1950s (CWC). From CWC to World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) in 1963 to World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1979 to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in 2002, the organization’s name experienced a number of modifications over the years. It has only used the WWE moniker since 2011.
In this article, we will take a look at the top five famous wrestlers who revolutionized WWE and significantly increased its value,
Steve Austin
The greatest professional wrestler of all time is believed to be Cold Stone (Steve Austin). Stone Cold triumphs over The Rock because he resurrected the company and helped pave the path for several future wrestlers, making it tough to compare the two guys because they are each amazing in their own right. Without Stone Cold, it’s impossible to imagine what the WWE would have been like. Steve Austin was a member of the WCW roster before he rose to fame in the WWE. Austin had a good tenure in the WCW since he was able to win a couple of championships while working for Ted Turner. He held the WCW World Television Title twice and was the WCW United States Champion twice.

John Cena, one of the most famous WWE wrestlers of all time, has won 25 championships and held the title of world champion 16 times since his professional career began two decades ago. Cena has established a career outside of wrestling as an actor and rapper. His notable works include the movies Sisters, The Marine, and Trainwreck as well as the rap album You Can’t See Me. Over his career as a wrestler, Cena claimed more than 15 WWE world championships and ruled the roster. He was crowned the “Perfect Man,” “the Doctor of Thuganomics,” and “the Chain Gang Soldier,” among other names. He was known for his “spine buster,” which involved picking up his opponent, spinning him around, and then dropping him.

He has won the heavyweight world championship seven times during a career spanning more than three decades. He has also made appearances in a few movies and TV shows.
