What price Candice LeRae vs. Mia Yim in the Mae Young Classic final? LeRae is arguably the biggest female name in independent wrestling today. She became a babyface sensation in PWG, all despite Super Dragon's seeming unwillingness to book females. She got over with her ability and her toughness, two characteristics that should eventually make her a major name in WWE.

The Mae Young Classic will come before that however. Candice has a large fanbase already, and of all the possible individuals who could turn up she will be the most spoken about. Her husband (Johnny Gargano) is also already signed to WWE, so it isn't as if getting her number would be a struggle.

At this point, Candice LeRae may well be betting odds leader to win the whole thing.
