Here are the WWE Superstars that stole the show this year

#4 Bianca Belair (NXT, WWE RAW, and SmackDown)

Bianca Belair was one of the NXT Superstars who was called up to the WWE main roster this year. Despite arriving at WrestleMania, Belair had a slow start on WWE RAW. She was mostly booked as someone who would neutralize the threat posed by Zelina Vega when The Street Profits were feuding with Andrade and Angel Garza.

Bianca Belair then proved herself as someone capable of dominating the women’s division. The WWE Universe was excited to see her challenge for the women’s championship, but the creative wanted to add more to her build-up before pushing her into the title picture. Following the 2020 WWE Draft, we saw several promos dedicated towards establishing Belair better than everyone else.

She put up an impressive performance at Survivor Series even though her team lost the match. Soon after that, Belair started feuding with Bayley and is now expected to pick a much-deserved victory over the former women’s champion. Belair would need that momentum before she inevitably goes after Sasha Banks and her WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship.
