7 UFC Women's Stars Who Should Follow Ronda Rousey To WWE
5. Alexandra Albu
Until a year or two ago, Alexandra Albu was practically unheard of in the western mixed martial arts world. Her surprise signing by the UFC coincided with some very popular shots of the fighter modeling making the rounds, and suddenly, the UFC fanbase was constantly chirping about her. Since then, she has fought once, picking up a win by submission at a UFC Fight Night in Poland. However, the Russian fighter has not been utilized as well as she could be by the UFC; given her look, fan interest, and success in her first fight, she should be getting a main card slot at another event, but little has been heard from her since that first fight in April. Where the UFC has dropped the ball, the WWE would have no issue finding something that works for Albu. She's got a good look, solid athleticism, and with her Russian background, she could be an effective ally for someone like Rusev (even if they've reverted back to him being the Bulgarian Brute).
