Cardi B Names Her ‘GOAT’ Wrestlers, Says She Has a ‘Huge Crush’ on Dave Bautista

Cardi B got to live out her WWE dreams while hosting SummerSlam 2025.

Between throwing playful jabs at Druski and teasing music from her forthcoming sophomore album, the Grammy winner chatted with Complex's Kylie Mar backstage at the event. Cardi revealed her all-time GOAT wrestlers, mainly throwback fighters, including one she has a "huge crush" on.

"My GOAT wrestler...It really depends because I like a lot of different ones. I’ve always loved Eddie Guerrero, of course. Like, a lot of people didn't really like him, but then I started to like him," Cardi said about the late wrestler.

She continued, "Edge, [Dave] Bautista, I had a, like, huge crush on him for a long time. Booker T, of course."

The "Outside" rapper also gave a mention to The Undertaker, saying that the wrestler's rise "from the dead" move was "so weird."

Adding that she's a fan of current female WWE wrestlers, Cardi also threw in SmackDown fighter Randy Orton, admitting that she initially disliked him.

"And then when people started to hate him, I just—I'm one of those people that … when, like, nobody likes you or you're, like, the bad person, I start to like you," said the Am I the Drama? artist.

Also during the conversation, Cardi confessed that she doesn't want smoke with female WWE stars, calling them "pretty big" in stature. "I ain't there yet but I'll fuck with y'all one day," she joked in the reel above.

Along with entering the ring to host SummerSlam festivities, Cardi caught up with WWE legend Triple H, revealing to Complex earlier that she wanted to do his signature 'suck it' move with him.
