WWE Superstars who were instrumental in getting NXT to where it is today

#1 The Four Horsewomen of NXT

The Four Horsewomen after Bayley defeated Sasha Banks

Every member of the Four Horsewomen of NXT won the NXT Women's Championship - except for The Man, Becky Lynch. She was long thought of as the odd person out in the group, but if you ask her about it today, I'm sure she's fine with how things have played out.

The likes of Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair were around in NXT when Paige became the inaugural Champion, but they weren't as seasoned in NXT as the likes of Paige and Emma. But as they grew into their roles on the yellow show, they were regularly atop the card and were running the women's division.

Flair won the title after it was vacated by Paige and Banks would win it from Flair. As the women consistently upped the bar for performances, they started to main-event TakeOver shows, including Bayley and Banks at TakeOver: Brooklyn. That honor didn't go to just any women in NXT.

The women were so integral to NXT's women's division that they earned the moniker of the Four Horsewomen. Women hadn't main-evented PPVs on the main roster like they did in NXT, so a good deal of credit for closing shows should go to the Four Horsewomen.
