10 NXT Superstars who could become future World Champions

#2 Rhea Ripley

The Nightmare has left a mark all over WWE

Speaking of phenomenal talent, there is no one quite like Rhea Ripley in the entire wrestling industry. The former NXT UK Women’s Champion grabbed the opportunities presented to her with both hands and managed to defeat Shayna Baszler to win the NXT Women’s title.

Even though she lost the title to Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 36, she emerged from that loss brilliantly as she showed bravery by challenging Flair for a match WrestleMania herself, whilst having her first match at The Show of Shows as a Champion at the age of 23.

This proves that The Nightmare has a lot of potential. She has a long way to go and having won both the top titles in NXT at such a young age, there is nothing that can stop her from becoming the future face of the company.

The Australian may have faced a setback at WrestleMania, but we could see her come back stronger and better when she returns to our screens. Ripley could be moved to SmackDown or RAW sooner than later to shake up the division. This would then give her the chance to bag one of the top titles of the brand as the company seems to have a lot of faith in her.
