#7 Rhea Ripley
Ad

Rhea Ripley impressed a lot of people in her first Mae Young Classic appearance, where she advanced to the second round, ultimately being eliminated by Dakota Kai. Since then, she's made a few appearances on NXT, but these have only been sparse.
It would be a mistake not to put Rhea back in the tournament, as she has tremendous potential at only 21 years of age and with a certain charisma that's hard to teach. It would be nice to see her get deeper into the tournament this time!
