While professional wrestling might look like a male-centric sport, female wrestlers have made tremendous contributions to the industry's growth. Women's wrestling made significant evolution over the years, and talks of female wrestlers getting lesser screen time and remunerations compared to the male wrestlers have almost disappeared.

WWE used to be in the center of that criticism for a long time, but the company changed and announced the Women's Evolution in 2016. The WWE women's division has a wide range of members from all over the world who are putting in their best efforts for the company every time they step inside the ring. However, there are some female wrestlers who are doing double duty with their career and families. With that said, let's take a look at ten current WWE female wrestlers who are also mothers.
10 Tamina
Being the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Snuka, Tamina became a second-generation wrestler when she made her in-ring debut in 2009. She quickly found her way into WWE and made her debut alongside The Usos in 2010, and has been with the company since then.
She is a former 1-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion and 9-time 24/7 Champion, and has competed against the best names the company had to offer over the years.
Tamina became a mother way before she got into the pro wrestling business, as she has two daughters, Maleata and Milaneta, with her ex-husband, whom she was married to between 1995 and 2003.
9 Candice LeRae
Candice LeRae is a 20-year veteran of the pro wrestling industry and made quite the name for herself, competing across the independent circuit before she found her way into WWE in 2018.

She returned to active competition in September 2022, and while she hasn't made a mark on the main roster yet, she is slowly making progress, and might become a regular name on Raw in the coming days.
8 Becky Lynch
While Becky Lynch had a normal start to her WWE main roster career, her stocks shot up following her heel turn at SummerSlam 2018, following which, she established herself as The Man and went on to be part of the first women's main event in WrestleMania history.
She started dating fellow WWE superstar Seth Rollins in 2019, and was already a 4-time women's champion in WWE when she relinquished the Raw Women's Championship in 2020 to go on maternity leave.
