#4 Bianca Belair
When it comes to the idea of the "Total Package," it's hard to think of many names that rise above Bianca Belair. An athlete, a powerhouse, and full of charisma, the EST of NXT has everything you'd want in a WWE Superstar.
Belair knows this, which is why her cocky attitude has both gotten her in and out of a lot of tense situations throughout the year. Earning a title match in a Fatal-4-Way in December of last year, she moved on to challenge Shayna Baszler at NXT TakeOver: Phoenix. Heading into the PPV with an undefeated streak and taking on a champion who had already lost the belt once before, many assumed she'd come out on top.
That wasn't the case, though, as Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir guaranteed that the Queen of Spades remain the champion. Not to say Belair didn't put up a good fight. In fact, even though she had her arm snapped multiple times, Belair nearly put Baszler away on several occasions.
And though her undefeated streak ended that night at 367 days, it didn't get any easier to knock off Belair. In fact, she's only lost a total of 5 times in 2019, with a handful of those being multi-person matches where she wasn't actually pinned.
Bianca Belair has stayed near the top of the division since losing to Shayna Baszler. When Rhea Ripley made her move to NXT, Belair reminded her and the WWE Universe that she's still one of the best competitors on the roster.
Oddly enough, this led to Belair joining forces with Baszler to take on Ripley and her team at NXT TakeOver: WarGames, more than likely working towards a title shot should they take out the Nightmare. Unfortunately, that would not be the case for Belair.
Belair ended the year with a final victory against the debuting Shotzi Blackheart. While it was a great showing for the EVOLVE star, it proved once again that you'll need more than talent to beat Belair. You'll need a perfect night, as one small mistake is all it will take for Belair to catch you with the K.O.D.
With very few blemishes on her record and a new top woman on the roster, we can all but guarantee that the EST of NXT will be making her claim for a shot at Rhea Ripley in the very near future.
