Mercedes Martinez Tier
Mercedes Martinez: I didn't think she really fit in either of the categories she's between. She's crowding 40, but she's still so good that AEW could lean on her for a couple of years if they really wanted to. She's got the skill, she's got the presence, and she's got the ability to make whoever she's in the ring with look better. Some of the women on this list got jumped up a whole tier (or made the list at all) because I saw them have a match with Martinez where their potential came through. She got a star reaction as the All Out Battle Royal Joker entrant, so I'm completely lost as to why she's not on the roster yet.

Current Stars: You could plug these wrestlers into the main event level tomorrow and they'd be just fine. And then you could rely on them being over for years afterwards.
Keyra: I understand she wasn't booked on Triplemania, but Cody coming back from that trip talking about how great Big Mami is was a little disturbing. You've got a 23-year-old luchadora here who's already awesome and is still getting better that's working with a partner promotion and you're more interested in a comedy act than her? My man, you're set for comedy. Get some girls who can actually go.
Kellyanne: Maybe she can come in a package deal with Eagles. She's got the cool punk/grunge/alternative look that Bea Priestley does, except she's actually a good wrestler and not a nightmare to work with. And she's 25.
Ivelisse: 31 is basically just young enough for her to qualify for this tier. I know she's a head case and all, but she keeps getting hired despite that reputation for a reason. She could be a great heel for a good long time.
AQA: Book her against Mercedes and she'll get over the way Private Party did against the Bucks. Straight out of Booker T's Reality of Wrestling promotion in my old neck of the woods in Texas. She's young, she's athletic, she's got swagger, and she can work. She also has one of the prettiest Shooting Star Presses of any wrestler going today, male or female. https://www.instagram.com/p/Buxed6lArui/

Could be Current Stars but are probably more like Future Stars Tier: They've got talent, but they're not finished products yet for one reason or another.
Kris Statlander: I have no earthly idea how she hasn't been scooped up by a big company yet. She's 6 feet or damn near but moves around like she's nowhere near it. She's still a little raw, but with the right opponent she can do great things, and she's got the highest ceiling of anyone on this list.
Millie McKenzie: I don't know if she turned down the WWE offer because she really values being a freelancer right now or because it was insulting dollars-wise. If it's the latter, AEW should be going after her hard. She's as close to a prodigy at 19 years old as you're gonna get these days, and she's only going to get better with experience.
Ashley Vox: I'm not clear on what kind of obligations the NWA is demanding from their talent right now, but under the assumption that it's probably nothing super solid, Vox should be waaay on the radar. She brings an aura of intensity that would really be welcome in that division right now, with the potential to be a real cornerstone later on.

Valuable Current Assets with Big Potential
Jessica Troy: As big a blow as losing Kylie Rae was, Troy could conceivably be what they wanted Kylie to be. She's cute, she's likable, she's got energy and some technical skill, and she's even 5 years younger than Kylie.
Jamie Hayter: Hasn't quite put it together in-ring yet, except against the very top tier talent, but she's a hell of a trash talker and plays her character well. Perfect midcard heel with the potential to be more if she really connects.
Avary: A more serious version of Session Moth Martina. One of the more charismatic prospects on the list, and she's starting to improve in the ring as well. Also has the benefit of working well as a face and heel.
