#2- Nikki Cross

Nikki Cross could be the X-factor the Women’s Division needed

Nikki Cross is just what the doctor ordered for the depleted NXT women’s division. As Liv Morgan, Billy Kay and Peyton Royce try their best, but still can’t match up to the skill sets of their predecessors such as Sasha Banks, Charlotte, Bayley and Becky Lynch; and Ember Moon and Asuka seek legitimate wrestlers they can feud with, enter this woman!

Nikki Cross can go with the best, and is quite a seasoned veteran from the UK independent circuit. In fact, she has been the Pro-Wrestling: Eve champion a grand total of three times.

Not only that, she’s also a pretty popular name in Japan, having competed in World Wonder Ring Stardom. In fact, even when it comes to mainstream American wrestling, Cross has been a part of promotions such as TNA as part of their ‘British Boot Camp 2’ program and GFW.

We even saw her competing on NXT television not too long ago, in a 6-woman tag team match, with Carmella and Liv Morgan.
