The Four Horsewomen of WWE are an unofficial group composed of Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Bayley, & Charlotte Flair. Banks, Flair, & Bayley would debut in NXT in 2012 with Lynch joining soon after in 2013. Their careers in WWE would see them all capture countless NXT, SmackDown, Raw, and even Tag Team championships. The four women would also be admittedly long-time fans of wrestling and had started their careers long before making it to the bright lights of the WWE.

The combination of the Four Horsewomen would also be the holders of multiple records for women's wrestling like main eventing a WWE pay-per-view and main eventing WrestleMania. Some of the Horsewomen have even found their way out of the squared circle into the bright lights of Hollywood making movies and television shows. Enough of their present accolades, let's take a look at some early photos of the Horsewomen before making it to WWE.
10 Charlotte Flair In WCW
Charlotte Flair would be backstage with the rest of her family watching her father, Ric Flair, beat Vader in a title vs. career match in the main event of WCW's biggest show of the year, Starrcade 1993.
As seen here, a young Charlotte Flair would have been appearing on-screen for the first time at only seven years of age. This would mark her first of multiple appearances for World Championship Wrestling alongside her father and brother David Flair.
9 Becky Lynch & Paige In SHIMMER
Becky Lynch would wrestle before WWE under the ring name Rebecca Knox. Lynch would make her way to the all-women's wrestling promotion, SHIMMER, in early 2006.
Becky Lynch would suffer a head injury taking her out of in-ring action for six years. During that time she only wrestled on three occasions for Fight Factory Pro Wrestling and had a handful of manager appearances alongside Sweet Saraya and her daughter Britani Knight, a.k.a. Paige.
8 Bayley's First Time In The Ring
Bayley on multiple occasions has shown she is a die-hard wrestling fan starting at a very young age. Bayley would attend countless wrestling events meeting with her heroes like John Cena, Lita, Randy Orton, & Victoria.
Bayley has shown off tons of pictures of her getting autographs from wrestling superstars. Bayley would even get her first of many chances to be in a wrestling ring at a very young age.
7 Sasha Banks & John Cena
Much like the other Horsewomen, Sasha Banks has been a long-time wrestling fan since childhood watching WWE and All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling. Sasha's cousin, Snoop Dogg, would have a handful of appearances in the WWE, occasionally bringing a young Sasha Banks backstage with him.

Banks would get to take photos with wrestlers like John Cena, Nikki, & Brie Bella backstage at multiple shows. Once even seen on-screen behind the commentary table on a taping of Monday Night Raw.
6 Charlotte Flair In WCW, Part 2
Charlotte Flair would make her final on-screen appearance for World Championship Wrestling around 2000 during a feud between Ric Flair, Vince Russo, and her brother David Flair.
Her family would all make an appearance on the May 15th episode of Nitro when David, Daffney, and Russo would invade the Flair home until being stopped by Charlotte, her mother, and her younger brother Reid.
5 Becky Lynch In Japan
Becky Lynch would wrestle in a handful of indie promotions before getting an NXT contract in 2013. Lynch is born in Limerick, Ireland and would wrestle primarily in Europe and the United States. In her early career however she would make trips around the globe including a short stint in Japan.

Lynch would have a few matches including an eighteen-person battle royal that she would win. Her stint in Japan would also see her wrestle alongside long-time friend and future WWE star, Natalya Neidhart.
4 Bayley & Bret Hart
Bayley again, being the die-hard wrestling fan that she is has tons of wrestling merchandise, mostly seen here in this picture. Here she is holding two autographed pictures of Bret Hart alongside a WWE shirt, WWE posters on her door, and a WWE sticker on a "beware of dog" sign.
Bayley would make her fandom a part of her gimmick early on in her NXT career anytime she would be interacting with the superstars of WWE.
3 Sasha Banks In Chaotic Wrestling
Sasha Banks would have easily had the most successful pre-WWE career out of the Four Horsewomen (if we're looking at titles). Sasha would start her career training under Chaotic Wrestling in Massachusetts around 2008.
She would quickly debut for the indie company and become the Women's champion, holding the championship for 259 days before vacating the belt after signing her NXT contract.
2 Bayley & John Cena
Once again proving herself to be the biggest super fan WWE has, Bayley would again get the chance to meet a majority of, if not, all of her heroes. Here she is seen meeting John Cena when she was a teenager.
Cena here proves that he takes the time to meet with any and every fan he possibly can. A quick Google search will show just how many wrestlers Bayley has gotten to meet before becoming one herself.
1 Becky Lynch, Kevin Owens, & Sami Zayn
It is common for wrestlers to be friends when traveling the road together and working shows 300 days a year. Becky Lynch would be one of those superstars traveling from promotion to promotion across the globe, on-the-road meeting future WWE stars like Natalya Neidhart.
Becky is seen here hanging out with some friends including future WWE mainstays and NXT alumni Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn.
