WWE has become the largest pro wrestling promotion in the world by making some smart decisions and hiring the right employees. The company works hard to hunt down talent that would fit with the brand’s image and can help the company become bigger while paying back to the WWE Universe.
The company has also been known to go after extremely tall athletes, with the likes of Kane, The Big Show, and Andre the Giant early on.
However, the company has moved its focus from just the size of the athletes to their talent too. This has allowed even more wrestlers to try out for the company and make it big. Daniel Bryan, Rey Mysterio, and Finn Balor are a few of the many men who have recently broken the norm set by the company and tried to inspire more talent to come up and try out for the company.

In this article, we will look at the 15 shortest WWE Superstars the company has on their payroll today and how they’ve broken the norms to impress the entire WWE Universe.
#15 & #14 Sasha Banks & Rey Mysterio - 5’ 5” & 5′ 6″
While many of you might be wondering why these two WWE Superstars have been put together, you’ll find out as you read along.
Sasha Banks is one of the finest Superstars in WWE today who has everything from great looks, to outstanding mic skills and in-ring skills. These unique qualities have enabled her to win several titles in WWE and become one of the top women in the company and the face of the women’s roster on SmackDown. The 5' 5" Superstar is larger than life both inside and outside the WWE ring.
The WWE veteran's height is still not very clear to us
Rey Mysterio, on the other hand, does not need any introduction. The WWE veteran and future Hall of Famer is known to be one of the finest high-flyers we’ve ever seen and is no doubt The King of the Cruiserweights in the industry.
While Mysterio is said to be 5' 6" tall by the company, Mysterio himself has claimed that he is 5' 4" tall. On the other hand, several outlets have claimed that he is even shorter, and stands only 5' 2" tall.
This can be somewhat confirmed by a picture of Mysterio with Ember Moon who is said to be much shorter than The Master of the 619. However, both WWE Superstars seem like the same height in the photo.
#13 & #12 Mandy Rose & Drake Maverick - 5′ 4″
These two completely different WWE Superstars stand at just 5' 4" tall. This is acceptable for someone like Mandy Rose who is known as God’s Greatest Creation for a very good reason.
Even though Rose is yet to win any Championships in WWE, she has managed to make waves with her looks and skills and has recently found love in WWE in the shape of Otis.
Maverick stole the heart of the WWE Universe with his recent performances
Drake Maverick, on the other hand, wouldn’t be too amused to find himself on a list dominated by the ladies. However, the Superstar has never been shy to make fun of his own size and use it to entertain the WWE Universe.
The former 24/7 Champion has had some great comedic segments in WWE and also gave fans some emotional performances during the NXT Cruiserweight Championship tournament.
His recent performances and new WWE NXT contract could lead to him finding some top rivalries in the months to come after his initial run saw him act as the General Manager of 205 Live and manage Authors of Pain.
#11, #10, #9, #8 & #7 Asuka, Liv Morgan, Aliyah, Xia Li & Dana Brooke - 5′ 3″
This slide consists of some of the most diverse women in WWE today. At 5' 3" inches tall, Asuka, Liv Morgan, Aliyah, Xia Li, and Dana Brooke are among the shortest Superstars the company has today.
Asuka’s height has never been a problem for her as she has one of the most impressive win streaks in the history of the company. She has won the NXT Women’s Championship, RAW Women’s Championship, and SmackDown Women’s Championship during her career and it seems like she’s just getting started.
Morgan, Aliyah, Li, and Brooke have a long way to go in WWE
Liv Morgan was part of The Riott Squad before she went on a solo run and is currently trying to find her footing on the RAW brand again. The WWE Superstar has a long way to go in her career, and her fans already see her as a future RAW Women’s Champion.
Aliyah has been in WWE NXT for some time now and she seems to be finally finding her footing on the Black & Gold brand.
Hailing from Chongqing, China, Xia Li is one of the most impressive new stars WWE has signed in recent years. After the success of several new Japanese stars, it will be interesting to see where this East Asian Superstar heads to in WWE.
Last but not least, Dana Brooke is one of the shortest WWE Superstars, yet has one of the most impressive physiques. She has polished her in-ring skills over the past few years and could get to the top of the RAW or SmackDown brand in the coming years.
#6, #5 & #4 Candice LeRae, Ember Moon & Nikki Cross - 5′ 2″
This spot is occupied by three extremely talented women of WWE. Let’s begin with Candice LeRae who is one of the top Superstars on NXT today.
LeRae was known as Johnny Gargano’s wife for a long time in NXT before fans began to see her true talent and realize just how good she is in the ring. LeRae is now a top contender to become the next NXT Women’s Champion.
Next up is Ember Moon who had a good showing on RAW and SmackDown and was one of the top candidates to become a future RAW Women’s Champion. However, an injury has kept her on the shelf for a long time and she is waiting to return to the ring once again.
Former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion rounds up the spot!
Last, but not least, is Nikki Cross. The former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion is just marginally taller than her tag team partner and is known to be one of the most unique characters and wrestlers in the industry.
All three women have a bright future ahead and a lot to achieve in the WWE and their heights will definitely not hinder their progress!
#3 Io Shirai - 5′ 1.5″
While Io Shirai may be known as the best female wrestler in the industry today, she has managed to make it big while being relatively small herself. Shirai started in WWE NXT and worked her way up to become the NXT Women’s Champion after taking away the title from Charlotte Flair.
Shirai is by far one of the best in-ring performers WWE has today and the 5' 1.5" Superstar has managed to reach new heights in the company.
Shirai is one of the most talented women in WWE today
Shirai has competed against some of the tallest women in the company today, including Flair and Rhea Ripley, and has managed to defeat them to make a big impact on WWE.
Shirai has a bright future ahead of her, and while she has just won the NXT Championship, we could end up seeing her dominate RAW and SmackDown soo before becoming one of the most decorated female WWE Superstars in history.
Fans have a lot of hope attached to Shirai!
#2 & #1 Alexa Bliss & Kairi Sane - 5′ 1″
The top spot on the list is taken up by two of our favorite WWE RAW Superstars, Alexa Bliss, and Kairi Sane! Bliss has been known to be one of the shortest yet most effective wrestlers in the business. While she doesn’t look below-average height at first, you can pick out just how little she is once she’s in the ring with her opponents.
Bliss is a former RAW and SmackDown Women’s Champion and is arguably one of the most accomplished women on this list. That proves that height and size do not matter if you have the will and talent to succeed.
Most of Bliss’s merchandise available on the official WWE Shop have the words “Five Feet of Fury” printed on them!
Kairi Sane is the future of WWE
The only other WWE Superstar who matches up to Bliss’ size is former NXT Champion Kairi Sane. Sane is one of the most entertaining characters on WWE TV today and she has proved that anything is possible if you are good in the ring.
Both women are future Hall of Famers and they have a long and bright career ahead of them!
