10 Wrestlers You Didn't Know Were In NXT AND AEW

10. Ariane Andrew

After a four year sabbatical from the industry, Ariane Andrew - formerly known by the mononym Cameron - made a decidedly low-key comeback in AEW this July, casually revealing herself as Nyla Rose's purple pick in the Deadly Draw lottery. "I'm back!" she plainly stated, as though we'd been expecting her re-emergence any moment this past half decade or so.

The rustiness showed, mind: her and Rose promptly lost their Women's Tag Team Tournament first round tie to Tay Conti & Anna Jay.

Though the former Funkadactlyl wasn't necessarily known in WWE for her in-ring prowess- a run perhaps best remembered for her rhythmic partnership of gyrating King Hippo Brodus Clay (alongside a then, as now, criminally underutilised Naomi) - she made a number of Full Sail appearances towards its conclusion. Hoping to kickstart a moribund singles career, Cameron made the switch to NXT in November 2015. She had just three televised matches - including a defeat to the rampaging Asuka - before WWE let her go in May 2016.
