10 WWE Superstars Set For A Big Push Following WrestleMania 34
Get ready for a reshuffle.
With WrestleMania 34 finally in the rear-view, it's time for WWE to conduct their annual hard reset.
Fresh starts are on the horizon for all. The weeks following the year's biggest show always necessitate a major reshuffle, and with the Superstar Shake-Up set to commence on tonight's Raw and multiple NXT stars joining the main roster last week, the wheels are already in motion.
Several wrestlers have dropped out of the spotlight, but this is essential. There are only so many seats at the top table, and in order for new wrestlers to be pushed, others must be cycled down the card. Fortunately, WWE's bloated roster is brimming with candidates for elevation.
Much of this spawns from what went down at 'Mania. The Show Of Shows effectively acts as WWE's annual season finale, and after what went down in New Orleans on 8 April (as well as the fallout episodes of Raw and SmackDown), we already have a strong idea of who they'll be pushing up the card over the coming weeks and months.
Some of the stars within will slide back down the ladder by year's end, but each will shine in the interim...
10. Ember Moon
A huge Raw after 'Mania arrival, the former NXT Champion is capable of going toe-to-toe with anyone between the ropes. Her matches with Asuka rank among the Women's Revolution's finest, and had she come along during the developmental brand's Four Horsewomen era, her résumé would be even more stacked.
Ember's character work is a little inconsistent, but she's more than ready for this spot. She's already one of the main roster's best women's wrestlers, and working alongside the likes of Bayley and Sasha Banks should sharpen her skills even further, provided the Superstar Shake-Up doesn't send them scattering to different brands. Still, there's great potential for fresh match-ups with swathes of opponents she's still to cross paths with.
Moon should be handed a major push from the get-go. There's no point in having her mess around with the Dana Brookes of the world, so expect her to be slotted into a solid feud before long, even if it's outwith the immediate title picture. Ember vs. Alexa Bliss looks a solid bet if The Goddess' issues with Nia Jax are soon resolved.
