Around the world there have always been countless talented wrestlers who dream of working for WWE, but only a handful achieve the goal thanks to their effort and dedication. However, getting to WWE is only the first step, as they also have to settle down and work hard to outperform others.
On the current WWE roster, there are some foreign wrestlers who have overcome adversity and have broken barriers to become true wrestling superstars. However, there are also others who have unfortunately failed to stand out, and whose frequent weak performances make us doubt their talent and make us think that perhaps they do not belong to WWE.
10 Best: Drew McIntyre
Obviously, Drew McIntyre tops this list, as the Scotsman is currently one of the best wrestlers in the world. The Chosen One is synonymous with effort and perseverance, as his first stint in WWE was a failure. He went to other promotions for a couple of years and then returned to WWE better than ever.
McIntyre is going through the best moment of his career, he had an exceptional 2020, in which he became the first-ever British WWE Champion, and everything indicates that he will continue with his dominance for a while longer.
9 Worst: Natalya
Jim Neidhart's daughter has had many great moments in WWE, which translate into an excellent professional career. However, the best version of Natalya is already in the past.
The Canadian wrestler is already 38 years old and her skills have not improved in years. She simply seems to coast on her reputation.
Despite the fact that Natalya is not the same as before, she is still needed on the roster, as her experience can be very helpful for the younger ones.
8 Best: Rhea Ripley
Demi Bennet (Rhea Ripley's real name) was born in Adelaide, Australia. In 2013, she began her career as a wrestler in Riot City Wrestling and four years later she came to WWE. Rhea Ripley was quite inexperienced at the time, but she was adapting little by little and getting better and better.
Currently, The Nightmare is 24 years old and is one of the best wrestlers in NXT, without a doubt. Ripley has untold potential and will most likely rise to the top of WWE's women's division in the near future.
7 Worst: Aliyah
After six years working for WWE, Aliyah continues to have rookie performances. The truth is that her in-ring performances are simply not good. Most of the fans have had enough of her and it is not known how long it will take for Vince McMahon and Triple H to run out of patience.
The Canadian is 26, she is still very young and she has a golden opportunity to shine, but if she does not improve soon, we could be seeing her last days in the company.
6 Best: Asuka
The Empress Of Tomorrow is one of the best Japanese wrestlers ever, hands down, and she's obviously one of the best wrestlers in the women's division. Asuka came to WWE in 2015, and since then she has worked very hard and took every opportunity she got.
She has accomplished incredible things, such as that unforgettable 510-day NXT Women's Title reign, that great victory at the 2018 Royal Rumble, or her current reigns as RAW Women's Champion and WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.
Asuka is already 39 years old, but she still has plenty of fuel left to compete at the highest level.
5 Worst: Slapjack
Slapjack has an extraordinary physical shape; however, we cannot say the same about his abilities in the ring. Slapjack is one of the worst wrestlers on the current roster, as his weak performances are recurrent, and, furthermore, his character brings absolutely nothing to WWE.
At some point, Australian Shane Veryzer (Slapjack's real name) proved he had talent and potential, but for some reason he has never lived up to expectations. Now, he's an irrelevant member of Retribution, to say the least.
4 Best: Kevin Owens
Throughout history Canada has seen several gifted wrestlers born, and Kevin Owens is no exception. Maybe KO is a notch below Bret Hart, Edge, Chris Jericho and Roddy Piper, but he's still very talented and that's undeniable.
Kevin Owens exceeded expectations in his most recent storyline with Roman Reigns and Jey Uso, in fact this has been one of his most outstanding feuds in WWE.
KO is very good inside the ring and also with the microphone. He knows how to put on a great show.

2 Best: Becky Lynch
Without a doubt, The Man is one of the best female wrestlers in WWE history, as her career has been simply phenomenal. If we compare the young Becky Lynch of 2013 with today’s Becky Lynch, you can see a big difference, because her character has evolved a lot over the years.
Becky Lynch became a key player to the company. Most of the fans miss the Irishwoman very much and hope that she comes back soon, because she always delivers amazing matches.
1 Worst: Humberto Carrillo
Mexican talent has always been necessary in WWE, the Lucha Libre style is different and really fun to watch.
Humberto Carrillo was born in Monterrey, Mexico. He began his wrestling career very young and he came to WWE in 2018 at the age of 22. Carrillo still has a lot of potential, but he has not shown anything extraordinary so far, as his matches are boring and he has zero charisma.
Carrillo could be a future champion, but at the moment he's not shown much.
