9. AJ Lee vs Roxanne Perez

Liv Morgan's brutal 2025 injury was heavily reported to have derailed WWE's biggest creative for the women's division. One of the victims of that unfortunate injury has been Roxanne Perez, whose flirtations with 'Dirty Dom' and weaseling ways were pushing Morgan's buttons at the time of her dislocating her shoulder.

AJ Lee's return was one of the most heartwarming things to happen in WWE in 2025. Her and CM Punk's "husband and wife" feud with Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch was a cool way of welcoming her back into the company, but that was very much Lee joining a Rollins and Punk feud that was already in full flight. What we need now is a feud for AJ that gives her a focus of her own.

Roxanne Perez's run in NXT, in-ring ability, and devilish streak make her one of WWE's most likely-to-succeed young superstars. Once her inevitable run-in with Morgan reaches its natural conclusion, Perez should turn her attention to her idol. She is happy to point out that AJ Lee is the reason she became a pro wrestler, and AJ's veteran status makes her the perfect target for the opportunistic and ambitious Perez to take the biggest scalp of her career.
