5 WWE Superstars who desperately need a heel turn - Roman Reigns’ ‘new’ friend, heartbreak for Aalyah Mysterio?

#2 Nikki Cross (WWE RAW) – An anti-hero angle might revive her career on the main roster

Nikki Cross needs redemption on WWE RAW

Nikki Cross undoubtedly had a great start to her run on the main roster. Her alliance with Alexa Bliss saw her win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. However, it was her series of losses against Bayley that ultimately ruined her momentum. Ever since that, Cross has struggled to find her feet in WWE.

Amidst all of this, a heel turn could be extremely beneficial for Nikki Cross on WWE RAW. There’s no way for her to go up against Alexa Bliss at the moment and come out victorious. Instead, she should be allowed to pursue her fate as a singles Superstar on the Red brand by challenging the top talents. A feud against the biggest babyfaces will push her further up the roster.

The women’s division of WWE RAW is genuinely struggling to deliver good feuds. We have seen repetitive brawls and average rivalries. Maybe adding a brutal heel into the mix will help both the said Superstar while simultaneously creating new threats to the women’s championships. Cross’ heel turn will certainly account for an interesting prospect, enabling her to get better as a singles Superstar.
