10 Wrestlers WWE Should Retain If They Buy TNA

3. Jade

Jade has been in and out of TNA since 2013, but only really started making her presence felt this year. She went full-time in 2015 as part of The Dollhouse, but mostly played a secondary role to Taryn Terrell, who was heavily-involved in the Knockouts Title scene at the time. Despite this, Jade did enough to earn a couple of title shots of her own after Terrell’s departure from the company, though she was unsuccessful in her initial efforts.

Things started looking-up with the Dollhouse’s March disbandment. Jade has since become TNA’s 2016 Queen of the Knockouts tournament winner, and enjoyed an 87-day reign as champion before dropping the belt to Sienna at June’s Slammiversary event.

Jade has done incredibly well to break-away from her old supporting cast role, and her prominence has grown immensely throughout 2016. She’s a skilled wrestler who’s equally adept at playing face as she is heel, and she supplements her immense dexterity and agility with a surprisingly effective power game.

Though her time in TNA means she’d likely be able to jump to Raw or SmackDown with few growing pains, Jade would be just as useful in NXT. Aged 27, she has a bright future ahead of her in the wrestling business, and it’s hard to imagine WWE not being interested in acquiring the Knockouts Division’s top star at this point.
