Naomi has been waiting for a major push

Women in WWE have finally started gaining the respect that they deserve. Fans have started engaging in their storylines than ever before and it has come so far that there is are reports from Dave Meltzer and what culture that suggests that women may main be headlining WrestleMania 35.

Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.

It has not been confirmed right now, but people are thinking about it and this itself proves the changing attitude of people towards women wrestling.

While women revolution has taken a huge leap with the announcement of Evolution, it is a process that started long back in the past and is still going on in the present.

At present, there are wrestlers like Ronda Rousey, the Four Horsewomen (Charlotte, Sasha Banks, Bayley and Becky Lynch), Asuka, who are the face of this reconstruction, but there are others who have an equal part in it but are underrated.

So, here is the list of underrated stars who have great potential and can be in the same league as these above-mentioned wrestlers.


#4 Sonya Deville

She never got to show her potential as a singles competitor to the main roster audience

WWE has always seen Deville as someone who can do best when involved in a tag-team in the main roster.

Since she first joined RAW back in November 2017, she is been with Paige and Mandy Rose as part of the team called Absolution.

After Paige retired as a wrestler, she is teaming up with just Mandy Rose now. She never got to show her potential as a singles competitor to the main roster audience, which she is more than capable of doing.

People who watch NXT has seen her as a singles competitor. During June 2017, she was on a winning streak defeating wrestlers like Lacey Evans, Rachel Evers, Jenna Van Bemel, and Zeda.

She had gained momentum and going by her in-ring skills, it seems like she will be the next face of the company.

She even defeated Ruby Riott in a no holds barred match. Fans were genuinely excited for her main roster debut, but WWE did not use her right.

Now since the Absolution has been broken up and her team with Mandy Rose is not working either, management should give her a singles push. It will be fresh for everyone and fans will enjoy it.

#3 Dana Brooke

Like many women wrestlers, Dana's real talent was seen in NXT. In the April 2015 episode of NXT Brook made her debut, defeating Blue Pants and establishing herself as a villainess. She then entered into an alliance with Emma and became the top heel team of the brand in just a couple of months.

Brooke had great matches with Charlotte, Shasha, and Asuka in NXT. When she first came to the main roster, she was involved in some good storylines with Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Banks, and Baley, but then she started getting mixing up in the crowd.

Now, she just accompanies Titus Worldwide to their matches and very rarely we see her wrestling.

WWE is just wasting her there. Right now, she is just 29 and her whole career is in front of her. So, maybe the management needs to book her well or she might be better off with some other wrestling company.

#2 Ruby Riott

Ruby really deserves a big push

Ruby Riott has so much in her tank than she is currently using in Raw. I think Riott Squad is holding her back, just like Absolution is holding Sonya Deville back.

Ruby is just seen as the leader of a heel tag team, but she is capable to be the leader of the whole roster. It is not like WWE is not giving her any matches or storyline, I consider her underrated because she has not gotten any Championship run either is NXT or in the main roster.

The closest she has come to a championship belt was back in Fastlane back in March where she received a SmackDown Women's Championship match against Charlotte Flair but was unsuccessful in capturing the title.

When she was in the independent circuit before joining WWE, she had had many runs with different championship belts. Maybe, WWE should try doing the same here.

#1 Naomi

WWE's First-Ever Emmy 'For Your Consideration' Event

For me, Naomi is the most underrated wrestler at the moment. This year did not bring much for her, especially in the second half. She did win the first Wrestlemania Women's Battle Royal, but that was it for her.

After that, she continued to play the babyface and get involved in meaningless bouts with other mid-carders. Her highlight of the year was during the Royal Rumble back in January where she pulled out a ''Kofi Kingston''.

She was tossed out of the Rumble onto a pile of Superstars at ringside and ended up on the ringside barricade, still not having touched the arena floor.

Desperate to stay in the bout, Naomi tightrope-walked along the barricade, commandeered special guest ring announcer’s chair at ringside and propelled herself forward with her feet on the chair and her hands on the floor. However, once she got back in the ring, she was eliminated by Nia Jax.

Well, we all know the in-ring talent she possesses but the management is not using her right. She did have a fair bit of success as Smackdown's women Champion but that was in 2017, this year she just got lost in the crowd. We all expect more than just dancing face-offs with Lana from her.
