Ranking All 24 WWE Debuts & Returns In 2023
11. Kairi Sane
The re-signing of Kairi Sane has the potential to be a
tremendous move for WWE, particularly if it leads to a real, impactful women’s
stable that the earlier iteration of Damage CTRL wishes it could have
been.
Sane left WWE more than three years ago during the pandemic to return home. She made her shock return to the company at Crown Jewel, immediately paying dividends by helping Iyo Sky retain her WWE Women’s Championship and joining Damage CTRL.
Her appearance and everything that has followed has put stable leader Bayley on her heels, generating actual interest in the group after it felt like it was languishing for quite a while.
None of this touches on what Kairi brings to WWE in the
ring, providing another high-quality wrestler to a women’s division that can always
benefit from another strong performer. This ranking could prove to be low in
the coming weeks, but as of this writing (just after Survivor Series), Sane rates
right in the middle for what could be coming soon.
