10 Dominant NXT Forces (That Were Ruined Immediately On WWE's Main Roster)

7. Ember Moon

The unique and talented Ember Moon had a strong run on NXT and came closer than anyone else to ending Asuka's undefeated streak during her stay on the brand.

Her warrior princess-inspired gimmick and solid in-ring work should have helped her stand out on the main roster and bring a different vibe to the women's division. However, a cringe-worthy backstage promo in which she declared she was 'over the moon' offered a sign of things to come.

Warrior princesses do not do puns!

Limited storylines to help establish her persona, coupled with numerous ill-timed injuries have stifled Ember Moon's development on the main roster. She is currently sidelined with an injury and it is unknown when she will return.

Let's hope that whenever she gets cleared, WWE can learn from their mistakes and bring her back as a legitimate threat in the women's division. But if we're looking at their track record, maybe it's not worth getting our hopes up.
