Posted by Anthony Mango Sunday, January 1, 2023

Which WWE Superstars were on the roster in 2023? Check out this definitive list of every wrestler who was on the rosters of Raw, SmackDown and NXT brands as well as those who were free agents and WWE Performance Center recruits as well as those who were managers, valets or authority figures rather than wrestlers.

Names in gold with an asterisk * indicates this NXT Superstar was bumped up to the "main roster" of Raw and SmackDown at some point this year.

Italics indicate when a Superstar was a newcomer to WWE this year.

This list will be updated to reflect any changes, meaning if someone is traded to a different roster, the year will end with wherever they were last seen.
