We can already feel the eruptions from the comments section on this one, but hear us out. In light of the recent Twitch leak, we learned that Zelina Vega earned $341,748 in one year. The only wrestling talent to top her was Paige ($478,224), whose life story WWE made a movie out of. Vega has an appeal outside of wrestling that must catch the attention of those in the office with heads for figures.

Vega is often rubbished by wrestling fans. However, while no technical master, she can go in the ring and is capable of competent matches with shining moments. Though much has been made about the 2:10 time length of her recent match with Toni Storm, Vega's talent still shone through, with a nice reversal finish and a crisp Code Red, which secured Zelina the victory. Additionally, many fans forget Vega's role in getting Andrade over during his glittering NXT run.

With Alexa Bliss, who is the same height as Vega, already proving size does not dictate success in the women's division, Zelina, if given the chance to further hone her in-ring talent (in particular her high flying skills) and to play around with promos and characters, could be a franchise superstar.
