#2. WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Queen Zelina

Queen Zelina signed her first-ever WWE contract four years ago. She then spent nearly three years playing the part of Andrade's manager on NXT and then on the main roster. However, the 30-year-old left the company in November 2020 when WWE released her from her contract.

Zelina spent nearly eight months away from the squared circle. During that period, some reports stated that she had signed a new deal with an unspecified wrestling promotion last March. In July, however, she made her return to WWE.

Following her return, PWInsider's Mike Johnson reported some details regarding Zelina's WWE comeback.

"We are told that even after Vega was released, there were segments of the company who felt she should have been retained and not released. We are told those segments of the company pushed for conversations between the two sides to continue. They eventually did and we are told that after a long period of back and forth conversations, WWE execs apologized to Vega and made her an offer to return. Eventually, she decided to go through that open door and signed back with the company," he wrote.

Queen Zelina has been very successful since her return to WWE. Last October, she defeated Doudrop at Crown Jewel to win the inaugural Queen's Crown tournament. She then joined forces with Carmella to defeat Rhea Ripley and Nikki A.S.H. on the November 22 episode of RAW to capture the Women's Tag Team Titles.
