Top 10 NXT call-ups who failed on the main roster

#3 Bayley

As long as I live, I will never understand how they managed to screw this one up.

Much like Bray Wyatt, it's hard to call Bayley's main roster run a complete failure, as she did hold the WWE RAW Women's Championship at one point. But given how far she has fallen since her days in NXT, she had to place highly here.

While the dawn of Bayley's time in NXT was nothing special, the fans still got behind the plucky and charming babyface. In time, she found herself getting more and more chances at the NXT Women's Title, to a point where the fans were effectively begging for her eventual triumph. It would finally come in August of 2015 when she won the title from Sasha Banks in a thrilling match. The next month, she would follow that up with a 30-minute Iron Man match with Banks, which some call the greatest women's wrestling match in WWE history. Her reign would last 223 days before she finally dropped it to the undefeated Asuka in April of 2016. This was clearly a harbinger of her imminent main roster debut.

Not long after, she did indeed debut on the main roster, and the fans were elated and still very much behind her. Her initial build was initially fine, but for some reason, they booked her to win the RAW Women's Championship from Charlotte Flair on a random episode of RAW, rather than have her hand Charlotte her first defeat on the main roster PPV.

Personally, I believe that this anticlimactic title win was the beginning of her descent.

She lost the title to Alexa Bliss 76 days later and has never even come close to gaining it back since. Her lack of mic skills has rendered her character stale, to the point where people are now booing her and officials have apparently given up on her.

Sadly, I don't think Bayley can bounce back from this. Not if she doesn't modify her character.
