8 Wrestlers That Could Benefit From A Run In WWE NXT

8. Summer Rae

If you only watched Summer Rae on WWE TV in the last three years, you'd probably think she's just a blonde model who doesn't care about wrestling. Nobody could blame you for having that opinion, but Danielle Moinet is so much more than the Summer character that WWE allows her to portray on RAW. On a recent episode of WWE Unfiltered, Rae talked about how big of a WWF fan she was growing up and let it be known how much she loved working down at NXT with Dusty Rhodes, learning promos and trying to get better at her in-ring work. She was called up to the main roster as Fandango's dancer and valet in April 2013, but her career hasn't really progressed since. Sure, she's been in some matches on RAW and SmackDown but she hasn't been in one meaningful feud except being Rusev's lover in the angle with Lana, a role she did a great job of portraying, putting in some fantastic performances. Now she finds herself at another crossroads in her career - she was separated from Tyler Breeze last month and hasn't been on TV since. A stint back in NXT would do Summer the world of good. Down at Full Sail she can either keep improving her ring work to the point where she could become part of the so-called revolution with the women on RAW, or she could become a valet to an up-and-coming act and guide them all the way to main roster success. Either way, if Summer doesn't get the chance to head back down there and give herself a career boost, she could end up on the chopping block in the not too distant future when she really deserves so much more.
