25 Most Important Wrestlers In NXT History
17. Emma
Of all the women in WWE history, Emma may have the strongest case for "Most Overlooked."
NXT's Women's Division launched properly in 2013 and Emma was one of its first big stars. The Aussie performer made it to the final of the first ever NXT Women's Championship tournament and challenged for the belt again at NXT's first ever Network special, NXT Arrival.
After a brief stint on the main roster, Emma would return to NXT under a new gimmick, changing her character from that of a fun-loving dancer to a badass heel. Her partnership with Dana Brooke was one of the strongest acts in NXT during 2015 and 2016 and they were both perfect foils for the top female babyfaces of the time.
Emma was one of the first people to graduate from NXT to the main roster and then return to the promotion. Many people saw this as a demotion, but she took it as a chance to completely refresh herself and breathe new life into her career.
She helped to build NXT's women's division up in the first place and proved that returning to NXT wasn't a bad thing. Emma did so much for the black and yellow show and its about time she gets her recognition.
