about us

WWE is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Stamford, Connecticut.  WWE personnel consists of professional wrestlers, managers, play-by-play and color commentators, ring announcers, interviewers, referees, trainers, producers, script writers and various other positions. Executives and board members are also listed.

WWE contracts typically range from developmental contracts to multi-year deals.  Most personnel are independent contractors.  Personnel on the main roster appear on Raw, SmackDown, Main Event and Superstars (WWE's primary weekly television programming), on pay-per-views and at live events.

Personnel from WWE's developmental territory appear on the television series of the same name which airs online in the U.S. and on TV in select countries. Personnel on the main roster will also occasionally wrestle in NXT.

Personnel are organized below by their role in WWE. Their ring name is on the left and their real name is on the right. If someone is inactive for any reason, due to injury, suspension, makes only limited appearances, not appearing in more than 30 days or otherwise, that information is noted. WWE refers to its male performers as "Superstars" and its female performers as "Divas". The term "Superstars" is also occasionally used to refer to all WWE performers, regardless of gender.
