8. Cherry Bomb
The WWE Diva Division is sorely in need of fresh blood, not to mention performers who can help take it forward. Currently, on the main roster, if we're talking women who get regular TV time, only Paige, The Bella Twins, Natalya, AJ Lee and Alicia Fox really come to mind, backed up by bit-part players such as Layla, Eva Marie, Summer Rae, Rosa Mendes and the like. Out of that list, how many of those do you think could wrestle a Pay-Per-View quality match? That's not a slight on the females themselves, but more damning of WWE, who wheel these models out without much prior experience between the ropes. Only Paige and Natalya would be ones you'd really rely on to consistently deliver inside the ring. Cherry Bomb made an appearance for TNA in late-2013, losing to Gail Kim under her birth-given name, Laura Dennis. Other than that, this fierce female is better known for her work in SHIMMER and in Japan with various independent companies. She can wrestle, which is a start, but also looks great, something we all know WWE look for first in their female employees.
