#2. Ruby Soho - Can she finally become the centerpiece of AEW's Women's division?

When Ruby Soho made her debut at ALL OUT, it was a feeling unlike any other. While she had fans in WWE, she never felt the level of love and respect that she did in AEW.

Soho, fka Ruby Riott in WWE, was never viewed as a top-level star by upper management. Instead, she was underutilized more often than not, making rare championship challenges.

That changed instantly in one night at ALL OUT. When she made her surprise debut at the Casino Battle Royale, she instantly got a great reaction, winning the match and becoming the #1 contender to Britt Baker.

Soho may not become the Champion on her first, second, or even third attempt. But the fact that she was instantly a title contender upon her debut shows how much the company values her.

Admittedly, Ruby Soho may not be a name who Vince McMahon frets over when looking back upon released superstars. However, success at her new home would be a big message to send to WWE and McMahon.
