5 women who could replace Paige as the leader of Absolution

#3 Mickie James

It would be a much better use of her talents

Mickie James may just be the most under-utilized performer in all of WWE currently. One of the women who paved the way for the Women's Division of today, finds herself relegated to the role of Sasha Banks' sidekick in her battle against the villainous Absolution.

We know that James is a fantastic wrestler. As she proved during her program with Alexa Bliss, she's a great promo as well. While this is a chant we've come to deplore, she's still got it!

Imagine how much both Rose and Deville can learn by their mere proximity to Mickie James. It would also be a spot worthy of a talent like James.

After all, despite her age, Mickie James has proved time and again that she can still hang with the best in the current women's division.
