8: The Riott Squad 

Putting The Riott Squad last on this list is in no way indicative of the performances they have put on so far, it’s just that we haven’t really seen them given a chance in the ring just yet. The trio, consisting of Ruby Riott (don’t forget that extra T!), Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan have run riot over the Smackdown women’s division over the last month, my only real concern is that their act has literally just been copied and pasted from Monday night’s antics.

The trio will no doubt play a big role in the division in the coming months but right now, they need to do their own thing a little more, instead of coming off a knock-off version of Absolution.

7: Tye Dillinger

Remember how excited we all were when Tye Dillinger finally got called up to the main roster? Well, it didn’t take long for that excitement to die down as it became very clear the WWE had absolutely no idea what to do with him. While he was initially booked to look strong, Dillinger quickly disappeared from weekly television and his only notable appearance has been in a triple threat bout involving AJ Styles and Baron Corbin. Since losing that match, Dillinger has not been seen on television and things are not looking too promising for him going forward.
