1. Trish Adora

Her finisher name is Lariat Tubman.

I repeat: LARIAT. TUBMAN. HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH, EVERYONE!

Now, I could just say she deserves a contract off of that kind of creativity alone (because she does) but on top of making this a way too short slideshow slide, it just would not be true because there is so much more to Trish Adora than just a cool finisher name.

If the name sounds familiar, it should. On top of one-off appearances for indie favorites like SHINE and EVOLVE, Adora served as an enhancement talent putting over Kairi Sane during a 2018 episode of NXT. While she got laid out with relative ease by Sane in under three minutes (as anyone working as an enhancement talent should), Adora is actually a force to be reckoned with when she’s allowed to work a full match.

Trained by The Dudley Boyz over at their Team 3D Academy, Adora is one of the toughest, hardest hitting, strongest women I have ever seen step between those ropes and as someone who has only been wrestling for four years now, that says a lot.

In four years time, Adora is finally, slowly starting to gain a cult following. Most recently, she became the first ever Pan-Afrikan World Diaspora Wrestling Champion in F1ght Club and, in 2018, became GCW’s first ever Women’s Championship, a title she’s still holding for 473 days and counting. (Correction: Trish Adora pointed out that she dropped the title on Nov. 30 to KiLynn King.)
