Ranking WWE's First Ever NXT Class - From Worst To Best
25. Sofia Cortez
Sofia Cortez may not be a name that rings too many bells at this point, but a year-long run during the FCW-to-NXT transition in 2012 is a footnote in a career with a lot more landmarks.
A 20-year pro with less than a year spent in FCW/NXT, the artist better known as Ivelisse has been a headline-grabber for Lucha Underground and - for a period - AEW. She left that company under a cloud of controversy, and though that wasn't for the first time, her record is better than to just saddle her with a tag of being too difficult to work with.
She didn't leave WWE quietly either. She has since noted that she had reported Bill DeMott for alleged misconduct, and was the first to do so, indirectly or otherwise resulting in his eventual exit from the company. When he resigned, he did so amidst a slew of multiple misconduct allegations, which only bolstered her brave initial claim.
Outside of an stint in the industry that's had its fair share of controversy, this is a legacy worth celebrating.
