5. Nikki Cross

Nobody pulls off a 'crazy-chick' gimmick quite like Nikki Cross.

It's a route WWE have gone down plenty of times before, with AJ Lee, Alicia Fox and even Paige's shaky 2014 heel run. No other superstar has quite managed the level of intensity that Cross displays, however. This makes her a perfect foil for badass babyface Becky Lynch. Both women are capable on the mic and even more capable in the ring, having put on exceptional Last Woman Standing matches against Asuka and Charlotte Flair respectively.

Cross is currently involved in an angle with Alexa Bliss which may or may not see the duo compete for tag team gold, but it's a waste of Cross' potential to keep her in the shadow of The Goddess for too long. WWE could pursue a story-line which sees Cross turn on Bliss before setting her sights on Becky Lynch's Raw Women's Championship. Alternatively Lynch could become a sort of mentor to the Twisted Sister of NXT, making a future feud between the two even more significant.
