2. Nicole Savoy

Despite not being one of the bigger, more globally recognized names to enter the Mae Young Classic tournament in 2017, Nicole Savoy made it further than anyone expected her to advance in the tourney. But looking back at her overall talent (even comparing it to how she’s improved since), it’s easy to understand why WWE wanted their audience to see more of the Queen of Suplexes.

She made it passed the first round after defeating Raquel Gonzalez, before losing to Candice LeRae in the second round. Having gone through a hard fought grind through the independent scene for six years at the time (now going on nine), Savoy was already a well admired and respected competed, but she’s only improved and built her pedigree in the years since MYC.

Ranked #10 on the 2019 edition of Pro Wrestling Illustrated’s Top 100 Women in Wrestling, the highest any of any talent not currently signed by AEW or WWE at the moment, Savoy also became the longest reigning SHIMMER Champion of all time at 721 days.

In just three years, the Sacremento Suplex Machine has added to her stock in a way that would demand a top billing on any WWE card.
