#2 WWE NXT Women's Champion Raquel González
Remember when WWE used King of the Ring 2002 to turn a brand new star into a juggernaut? That was Brock Lesnar. I wonder how that worked out for him in the long run...
If WWE introduced a Queen of the Ring Tournament, there may not be a better use of it than to call someone up from NXT and have them run through all the competition. If that was the case, who should be the one to take the shot? Why not the woman who ended Io Shirai's 304-day reign. Why not the one responsible for ridding NXT of Rhea Ripley?

Raquel González has been a deadly force since aligning herself with Dakota Kai back in 2020.
González could run through the competition like a hot knife through butter, similar to what Lesnar did nineteen years ago. Instead of the F-5, though, it would be the Chingona Bomb laying waste to anyone that stood in her way.
#1 Queen of Spades...and the Ring
Look, Shayna Baszler needs to hit the reset button soon. She had a few WWE Tag Title runs with Nia Jax over the last year, but she should be doing so much more. She was, for my money, the greatest NXT Women's Champion of all time. When she came up to WWE's main roster, her first target was then RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch.
After that, she demolished five other competitors in the Elimination Chamber to move onto a WrestleMania match with Lynch. Sarah Logan, Ruby Riott, Natalya, Liv Morgan, and Asuka were all eliminated by The Queen of Spades, in that order. With that dominant victory, she seemed poised to rip the RAW Women's Title away from Lynch at Mania.
Unfortunately, it didn't pan out that way, and she's been in the mid-card ever since. Shayna Baszler deserves to be the top dog. The Queen of the Ring could give her a chance to bring back that once terrifying side of herself she had before she began playing with Alexa Bliss and Lilly.
