Nah she isn’t in the top
Sasha
Bayley
Becky
Shayna
Rhea
Ember
Mia
Bianca
They are miles above her in every area.

All this means is the WWE simply has a lot of quality women. If you basically have an all star team, not being in the top doesn't matter. But out of those women you listed, please tell me which ones have consistently been on TV. Becky want be wrestling again til a minimum of late 2021. Ember's injury is worse off than people thought. Shayna JUST popped back up after being missing for weeks. Rhea had her steam killed and is feuding with Aliyah. There's zero reason for Naomi not to be consistently on TV other than people like you, Wreddit, Wrestleforum, and apparently Booker T

Whoa stop it. I said she should she be on tv . Reread my post and stop lying. I said she would be perfect in NXT with the Robert Stone group taking it over and adding Swerve and Mia. She should be mentoring a group of wrestlers there. She should not be taking up with any main eventers because they have passed her by .

Why waste a main eventer with a mid carder for a year? Main eventers don’t need to be dragged down.
As much as I like Bianca she ain't nobody's main eventer.
She wouldn't even be on TV right now if Liv was available.
She's basically playing Liv Morgan's understudy in a tag team with Ruby who also seems to be an afterthought in this company but was still doing better than Bianca.

This is what Book said

During his recent podcast, Booker T commented on Naomi's current position in WWE:

“They can go to hell with all these hashtags as far as I’m concerned. Nobody deserves a chance, alright. First and foremost, you have to earn your chance and your spot on the roster. This is not some movement to just pull somebody up just because. I hate to sit here and say this and talk this way because I like Naomi. But, as far as the business goes, you get it on your merit alone. That’s it. It’s no buddy system. I know somebody is going to hear me and say, well such and such and that’ why they are doing it. Yes, that may be true. But life is not fair. Sometimes you have to make your own breaks. Sometimes you have to go out there and rise to the occasion when no one else thought you could. It may not happen overnight. No one expected me, including myself, to become six-time world champion. But, my persistence as far as going out to the middle of that ring and performing better than all those suckas in the locker room and the suckas in the locker room knew it. The fans saw something different and the signs were there for Booker T on a nightly basis. That’s why I say the hashtag Naomi deserves a chance or deserves better, I don’t think that serves her any purpose. People advocating for her in that way, the way that needs to be put out there from an advocating perspective is her advocating for herself when she goes out to the ring and performs at a high level and the world sees it. When you do that Naomi, you can’t be denied. No one will ever say someone gave you anything. If it happens right now, tomorrow, someone bless Naomi with the world championship, trust me, would not feel like she did it on her own. It would have to be a movement for something like that to happen. I never would want the world title if it was given to me that way. Naomi, I’ve said it a thousand times, is probably more athletic than any female in that locker room and 99% of the females in this business. But, psychology and working are two different things. I hope and I wish that I had my hands on her for one month. Naomi would look at this business in a totally different way.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)

Passed by? The WWE can never focus on more than 3-4 women at a time, even though there’s plenty of room for much more. Currently Sasha and Bayley (rightfully) have all the belts. Asuka has been a Covid MVP. Charlotte and Becky aren’t on TV. Ruby just got her first solo win in like 3 months. Lacey just went back heel after apparently being a face beforehand. There’s really not a lot of women doing anything despite a big focus on the “women’s revolution”. Are Mandy and Sonya still feuding??

Booker of all people should know that this isn’t really the case. He willingly allowed himself to lose in a racially charged storyline on the biggest stage and had to be “humbled”, broken down, and built back up to get the “WCW stench” off of him and allow him to win the World title when THEY wanted him to, when he was ready way beforehand. I say this in a lot of threads, the WWE will make you look like a big deal when and if THEY want you too. Naomi was red hot coming out of the Royal Rumble and the answer to all the press she (and by proxy, black women wrestlers in general) was getting was to lose a 4 way to Carmella, beat Carmella two weeks later (as she wasn’t on tv after the loss), then losing to Bayley at one of those wack Saudi PPVs. They instantly killed her steam and that was way before Jimmy USO even got injured. They didn’t take advantage at all of the press Naomi was getting and instead had Dana Brooke go over her. I dig Dana’s personality, but doing a Batista Bomb and Swanton Bomb doesn’t mean she’s improved. She’s still very bad and hasn’t shown improvement despite her effort and shouldn’t be beating anyone other than Aliyah.

The idea of "merit alone" doesn't exist in wrestling. It's about who can draw and make money.

That Naomi can generate these sorts of hash tags and buzz even with a few people outside of wrestling would prove, to an extent, that she can draw with a certain audience.

I hate to talk like I know more than Booker freaking T, but come on. His old behind know how the game go by now. To even fix his lips to come out and speak out against a campaign surrounding a Black women, supported by Black women fans, is embarrassing. Especially in regards to an industry as blatantly racist as pro wrestling.

you might not see it but there are thousands of people who do, hence them going hard for her, and hundreds of thousands of black girls out there who potentially could if she was given a push

she went super viral after her royal rumble return and has keke palmer wanting to play her in a movie for a reason, she is clearly more marketable than the vast majority of women on their roster on top of being talented
