#4. Cora Jade - NXT's youngest star

Cora Jade signed with WWE in January this year along with fellow new NXT stars Gigi Dolin and Zoey Stark. The Sorceress of Sin competed on WWE 205 Live before moving onto NXT as an enhancement talent wherein she competed with Xia Li and Franky Monet.

Jade made her NXT 2.0 debut in a rematch against Monet, which she won courtesy of a roll-up pin. However, she recently wrestled Dakota Kai in a dark match on SmackDown, which could indicate that she may soon be on the way to the main roster.


#3. Dakota Kai

Dakota Kai signed with NXT in December 2016 and made her debut as a part of the first-ever Mae Young Classic. She defeated Kavita Devi in the tournament.

Kai made her television debut on March 2018 with a victory against Lacey Evans via roll-up pinfall. Throughout Kai's 3-year NXT career, she competed with top stars such as Rhea Ripley, Tegan Nox, Kairi Sane, and Shayna Baszler.

Almost every superstar that Kai has wrestled has already moved up to either RAW or SmackDown. She certainly has the experience and the charisma to move up and make an impact on the main roster as well.
