#5.) Rhea Ripley
Starting off in the NXT: UK Women’s Division, it’s impressive to see how far Rhea Ripley has come in the past year. She made her presence known in the first Mae Young Classic, and during the tournament she was more of a smiling babyface. The following year, however, she managed to develop a new side of herself.
The second Mae Young Classic saw her display a brash, cocky attitude and though she didn’t win, she certainly impressed. She took part in the tournament to crown the first-ever NXT: UK Women’s Champion, and she won the tournament by beating Toni Storm in the finals.
She’s come a long way and has a big future ahead of her, being just 22 years of age.
