What with WWE plundering the British wrestling scene like a pirate kleptomaniac, it's amazing they haven't snapped up one of the UK's biggest female stars.

Viper, or Piper Niven as she was known during the 2017 Mae Young Classic, is one of the UK's top female talents with a mix of speed, power and skill.

The Scot has already achieved a great deal at the tender age of just 27. She was the inaugural Insane Championship Wrestling Women's Champion and also captured the World of Sport Women's Championship, the first all-female championship in WOS' thirty-plus year history.

The current WOS Women's Champion might be tied down a little with commitments in the UK, but if she could be swayed away, then she would be a huge get for the All Elite crew.

She's already gained some exposure in the US thanks to the Mae Young Classic and anyone who remotely follows the UK indies will have heard of Viper. You can bet this will be most of AEW's fanbase.

Viper is already a well-rounded performer, but still has a lot more room to grow. An extended run in a major American promotion - which AEW has every chance of becoming - could see the one-time Ms. Niven become a really big deal.
