On July 23, WWE announced the first ever women’s only pay-per-view, WWE Evolution 2018, will take place in October. With a growing presence in sports entertainment, women wrestlers are becoming more comparable to female superheroes and supervillains than ever before.

Once again, the WWE Women’s Division is grabbing the spotlight, after Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon, and Triple H announced on the July 23 episode of Raw that for the first time in the company’s history, there would be a women’s only pay-per-view, dubbed WWE Evolution 2018. Women pulled from the rosters of Raw, SmackDown Live, NXT and NXT UK will be billed, and current champions will be required to defend their titles. Along with main roster action, the final act of the Mae Young Classic will take place in the ring, and Hall of Famers Lita, Trish Stratus and Beth Phoenix will make an appearance.

With all eyes on the ladies of WWE, it’s hard to not see these trailblazers as heroes in our hearts and on our screens.

It’s not a far stretch to compare a WWE superstar to a comic book hero, or in some cases a comic book villain. Week to week, fans see a story similar to a comic book tale played out on Raw and SmackDown Live. Wrestlers make their names by fighting enemies, and often the moral vindication is easy to spot. Using their strength, agility and athleticism, WWE heroes beat the bad guy, overcome trials, and take home the trophy and admiration of fans everywhere. WWE villains use their intellect to manipulate, strength to torture, and ruthlessness to destroy the good guys.

In order to properly celebrate the strength, power, and intelligence of the women of WWE, and to highlight the road they pave for future women in sports entertainment, here are 13 current WWE Women’s Division Superstars, and their comic book counterparts.
