10 Gimmicks WWE Wrestlers Will Want You To Forget In 5 Years
5. Shayna Baszler
Speaking of former NXT champions being woefully underutilised on the main roster, Shayna Baszler is currently feuding with a doll. Well, really she's feuding with a twenty-nine-year-old child capable of demonic possession and leg-wobbling powers, but somehow it's even more ridiculous to think of the Queen of Spades arguing with a literal toy.
How the mighty have fallen. Baszler recently held tag gold alongside Nia Jax in a unique and interesting storyline that saw the two champions 'struggle to coexist' but now finds herself suffering roll-up losses to Reginald, a literal sommelier. Now, Baszler is shaping up to be the first big-name victim of Alexa Bliss' new Fiend-adjacent persona, and will probably continue to shout at a rag doll for at least a few more weeks
When WWE finally come to their senses and realise that Shayna Baszler is capable of so much more than distraction losses to acrobatic wine experts, it may well be too late for the audience to forget what has transpired since her move from NXT. Here's hoping that when the time comes for Baszler to wear the strap, her killer aura has been restored even slightly, and she is capable of stopping her legs go jiggly from spooky doll magic.
