[10.0] "Tatum Paxley is what I would call a comfort wrestler to me. Every time she's on screen I am just filled with so much joy and happiness. She is very relatable and reminds me so much of me with her nerdy and goth presentation. Her in ring work is exceptional, and her North American title reign just might be my most favorite title reign of all time. I was so sad when she had such a short title reign with the NXT title, but they quickly turned it around when she finally got her comeuppance on Izzi Dame, which was a great feud. Her crowning moment capturing the NXT North American Championship made me so happy and I wasn't even too sad when she lost it to Zaria because she had a crazy run. I really like this blossoming friendship she's having with Charlotte on the main roster so far, and I hope this main roster run is kind to her. Tatum is a treasure."
[10.0] "Amazing. Great look, great wrestler, great promos. She does the goth look better than Paige and Alexa and also blows them out of the water when it comes to wrestling. Her character work is one of the best in WWE. If she somehow fails it's all WWE and she will find success elsewhere. Literally the full package. I hope they give her MITB. Fatal Influence got gold upon call up so there better be something for Tatum too."
[10.0] "I love Tatum. Watch the behind the scenes video of her NXT Championship win; I defy you to not fall in love with her, too. The athletic ability was there from the jump but the bigger surprise is that she turned out to be a fantastic actress, portraying a character who is unhinged, codependent, and emotionally vulnerable. It's a character that could easily slip into camp and bathos but Tatum is so authentic and likeable the crowd pops for her, even when she's playing heel. Her ringwork is mature and polished and she's become a consistently good performer. I was first impressed by her physical courage: she's willing to take insane bumps for the fans and they love her for it. Her growth has been exponential and along the way she wisely figured out that having a flashy move set was less important than giving the fans a reason to care. Extra points for ring attire, which continues to evolve in a playful direction. The skirt elements are hot AF and give her an immediately recognizable silhouette. Tatum understands the assignment. I wouldn't hate it if she went back to playing heel -- she's very good at it! That versatility is one of her strengths."
[9.0] "Anyone else scared for the main roster? As I seen in NXT miles ahead as a natural babyface that I have no interest in her going heel on the main roster."
[9.0] "I really think Tatum is a great talent. Few have the character work as dialled in as she does, and that flows through to her in-ring work. She's had the crowd firmly behind her in NXT for a long time now and is the kind of character that can steal any scene she's in, and maximise her minutes. Creative should have been looking for a landing spot for her on the main roster for at least a year, and I hope she connects with the wider WWE audience once the time comes. One of my favourites for a while now."
[10.0] "She is one of the best wrestlers in the 2026. Fantastic character and amazing ring work. Really fan of her work. She is the future of main roster. My nxt wrestler of the year. Her north American title reign was amazing"
[10.0] "Tatum Paxley is a world-class star, what she does is incredibly good, her gimmick works for her character, she's perfect in the ring, she looks great, I hope WWE doesn't ruin her on the main roster and gives her something good"
[9.0] "She will be a big star in WWE. Super athletic, strong, great character and in-ring work. Such a good babyface, very easy to cheer for. Her promos and backstage segments are very good. Whenever there's a video package of her, her acting is fantastic. She's the full package and has immense potential."
[10.0] "She takes the seemingly dated big move\spot style to new creative heights. It's not that she can use some truely impressive athleticism or deceptively slick technique to create these moments but shes figured out the missing key of what to do with that dead space between the spots. Her selling is so layered and just as impressive as her offense, and shes a surprisingly effective promo to boot."
[8.0] "I really like Tatum and think she's great. Especially her character work. She may have the best character work in all of WWE, and that especially includes her packages and segments, where she really shines. She's a natural Babyface because she has that rare, God given likability that just makes you want to see her succeed. Her in-ring ability isn't terrible either. She may very well be a complete package that could do very well and go far in WWE. Alexa Bliss has won multiple championships and found much success with a similar character so with the appropriate writing and booking, she could reach the same heights. The only reason I give her an 8 is because she's a rookie and we'll just have to see what the future holds for her. I pray they do her well in the future because she has delivered ALL the goods on her end."
[8.0] "Very good character worker and a PC recruit success story for me. Her matches are always great as well and she shined in her last one vs Lizzy Rain. One worry I got is that she will be DOA on the main roster unless they are careful with her!"
[9.0] "I love Tatum so much. When you hear "unique" she comes to mind for me. She's very talented in the ring, strong on the mic, and has an energy that can't be taught. She works well, especially in this version of NXT and WWE."
[9.0] "Bumping my rating to 9/10, she has everything wow. She's a very good wrestler, absurdly athletic and everything she does looks so clean. Her character work is also great. She's clearly a very hard worker and has truly become a top babyface talent in WWE."
[9.0] "Bro, I love Tatum Paxley, she's just a great wrestler and I love her character work. She's also very underrated. She's improved so much over the years"
[10.0] "One of the most underrated wrestlers in the world, she is amazing at this wrestling thing. I'm quite excited to see her on the Main Roster because she is someone who can become a World Champion and be a very fun, dynamic character."
[10.0] "Tatum consistently impresses and delivers in big time matches. She is continuing to develop into an awesome well rounded pro wrestler as she has the in-ring abilities, a unique move set, great at selling, great mic skills, great character work, and is able to get the audience behind her. She has all the tools needed to become a huge star one day."
[9.0] "She's one of the easiest wrestlers to get into. A great character who's fantastic in the ring and can play a great Babyface. She's one of the best parts about the modern day NXT imo. Fantastic wrestler."
[9.0] "I am a huge tatum fan so I say this with some bias, but I truly think if given the runway she has everything to become arguably the top star in the womens division. Has the look, the promo abilities, the wrestling ability, very easy to root for but also could play a crazy heel if needed. I think the upside is so crazy with her."
[10.0] "Exactly what WWE has been missing lately. Constantly improving, had a bit of a stagnant period in 2025, but finished 25 and started 2026 with great character work and in ring improvement. Twice in the last three weeks she has recovered a "botch, " to make it look smooth. Including the finisher in her match with Dame at Vengeance Day. The fact she keeps getting better in ring and on mic makes me think sky is the limit for her. Womens wrestlers have a near 0% success rate in WWE after 35, so I expect her to get all of the push Liv is currently getting when Liv gets rotated out next year. MOAT TATUM MOAR SPOOKY CHICK WITH ATHLETIC ABILITY"
[8.0] "She's getting an 8 from me for now, doubt anybody at least at her level has improved more in the last 3 years. I think she has a very high ceiling. Liv Morgan or Alexa Bliss level star definitely not out of the question."
[10.0] "Tatum is definitely a ten for me. She is always very fun to watch in the ring and has gotten herself very over with the crowd. I was pleasantly surprised they pulled the trigger on her getting a title run, and I hope she gets another long one soon. She is clearly a star and beloved by many. She deserves a big push."
[10.0] "Genuinely one of the most talented wrestlers, her ring skills are on a whole new level. Though, I must say, her reign was so done dirty. I wish it lasted longer so she could prove how great she could be as a champ. Comparing her now with 2022, I think there's a big change in her. From being Ivy Nile's sidekick to now being one of the best NXT female wrestlers. She's "beautifully" athletic and her finisher is SO good."
[10.0] "Tatum is my favorite in NXT at the moment, I think she really has everything it takes to be great on the main roster when time comes. She's athletic, charismatic, and very innovative in the ring with her moveset. She also has one of the best gimmicks in NXT at the moment, which has led to her becoming one of the most popular stars among the NXT crowd. Her character work and popularity among fans even led to her carrying a directionless Culling faction to one of the most emotional feuds of the year, headlined by multiple PLE matches that didn't even need to involve championship belts. The only things missing from Tatum at the moment are a more established singles winning resume and a more assertive character who recognizes that she's one of the top stars of NXT, but both of those are more of a booking hesitancy than any fault of her own. I see her getting pushed very soon."
[9.0] "Tatum is fun, likable and a very good wrestler that keeps getting better. I think the reaction when she won the NXT Women's title shows just how easily likable she is. She's shown improvement every year of her career and I don't see that stopping anytime soon."
[10.0] "Tatum Paxley is substance with style and freak athleticism, which is why she's been able to improve this quick and consistently so. She literally has everything needed to suceed in that discipline. She's main roster ready, the only issue with her is the booking which is most likely a result of being too good to sell moves for your oxn good."
[10.0] "One of the greatest stars homegrown that NXT made! Very charismatic, talented and know how to act the character she have. So happy that she finally have the spotlight she deserves since last year ! Hope she gets a good title reign with the main NXT championship."
[8.0] "Tatum has been one of the most prominent workers in NXT as of 2 years now! She has consistently shown improvement, and her recent championship victory is just the proof that hard work and dedication drives you to this very moment! She's also had some very impressive performances against the likes of Roxanne Perez, Lyra Valkyria, Sol Ruca and most recently Jacy Jayne! Her edgy and charismatic character makes her so much special tha half of the roster, and while she's not a 10/10 yet, there's so much more room for improvement and I'm sure Tatum will reach that level with the amount of progression she's having!"
[9.0] "Very skilled, athletic and charismatic wrestler with tonnes of potential. It seemed worryingly like they weren't as high on her as the fans were for quite a while as she consistently fell short in big matches and wasn't even in many of the ones you'd expect her to be in, like the inaugural NA Title match. Now though she's finally been elevated to a major and much-deserved push with the NXT Women's Championship, let's hope things continue to look up from here and she gets to do what she's capable of, in developmental and then onwards and upwards to the main roster."
[8.0] "Tatum is great. She has her character work down to a T, is very good in-ring, and can even turn a boring stable (The Culling) into something that is must-watch TV. I've been watching her wrestle for about a year and a half now, and whilst her booking hasn't always been great, she's always tried to turn it into something decent. It seems like they will trust her with bigger matches/feuds going forward, so we can see how good she really is."
[10.0] "Years and years in the shadows, waiting, working, adapting, improving in and out of the ring like very few have. I'm truly delighted that they've finally decided to invest in her and make her the face of the division; she deserves it like no one else."
[5.0] "One of the very few trained exclusively by Sara Amato that's actually decent in the ring but has the charisma and pizazz of an unseasoned chicken breast on a paper plate. She also can't cut a promo. At least, not one delivered with enthusiasm that doesn't stink of a typical WWE script."
[8.0] "Great talent, decent in ring, the fans love her but for some reason they hesitate in pulling the trigger on her, this Culling nonsense is not doing her any favours"
[7.0] "I like Tatum; I have given her a seven, but to be honest, I think she deserves a 10 for her effort. Her role is to play this broken person support character, and it's now very dry (for me). I want to see her actually wrestle more. I agree with some of the comments; her days are limited, not because of her ability, but as it seems they do not know what to do with her. A gimmick change might be too much now, given how silly the character has gotten. Some time away in the indie scene might actually be good for her, but I hope she stays, and with her joining a new faction, who knows, maybe she'll do more."
[7.0] "I genuinely like Tatum. I think she has really evolved her character well and has been improving in the ring nicely. But I can read the writing on the wall that she more than likely isn't going much farther in WWE. They release Gigi and Shotzi, who she was in a team with. They released her husband. It just doesn't look good for her. I hope I'm wrong cause I think she has lots of potential given time."
[10.0] "Where is her much deserve tittle run? For not having a lot of wrestling experience she's insanely talented I love her current gimmick and she has a unique move set that's very entertaining to watch. Her finisher is so damn good as well definitely one of my favorite wwe talents. Hopefully she gets called up to the main roster next year I see her as a main talent already. I just don't like how nxt is treating her currently I feel like they don't know what to do with her and that's insane."
[8.0] "Great talent. Even though the basis of her gimmicks have been weird, she's knocked it out the park each time. Very fun move set and she executes it well. Unique look that ties into her character."
[7.0] "Tatum deserves more recognition! Which she got me noticing! She adds a fresh iteration of the goth & creepy aesthetic down to a tee with some great offense and agility! Definitely a standout in NXT who's deserve some much needed gold as well as see her as a future IC or US Women's Champion!"
[10.0] "Genuinely an absolute hooper. Not only is she a fantastic wrestler that can pull great matches out of people, but she also has a super innovative and fun-to-watch moveset. She moves mountains with her character and promos in the limited screentime she gets, to the point where she is so deeply beloved by crowds despite appearing on TV maybe once a month. She deserves so much more booking attention, and if she had it, she could be one of the most over women in the entire company. You fking rock Tatum."
[8.0] "In my opinion, she is Top 6 women wrestlers in NXT, you got Giulia, Stephanie, Roxanne, Jordynne, Sol and then Tatum. Amazing in the ring, great character worker, incredibly charismatic and very over with the crowd, she definitely deserve to win a title soon"
[10.0] "Tatum Paxley has everything on point; Athleticism, charisma, looks, consistent good ring work, over with the crowds, can work a character. Tatum has that it factor and quite honestly she just needs the push now, she's versatile and believable which can guarantee her to make anything you give her sure to be entertaining."
[10.0] "edit: she deserves the 10, she has proven to be an incredible girl in the ring as well as on the mic, she has an incredible character that is unusual to see, she is as good at what she does, with each girl they put in the ring, she brings out the best in them and puts on an incredible fight, by far the best in NXT without a doubt"
[8.0] "The ultimate utility player in NXT's women division. She brought life into what could have been a cliché crazy goth girl gimmick and organically got people behind her. Underrated promo and solid wrestling skills. Also, her theme song kicks ass."
[8.0] "Potential to be an incredible main roster heel. Her character could possibly be Wyatt/Fiend-adjacent. Has slowly been cutting better and better promos. Great TNA match against Jordynne Grace. Tag team/stable with Gigi and Shotzi would cook hard. I can see a high ceiling for a wrestler only 3 years in."
[9.0] "She has a very marketable and telegenic gimmick that can easily get a spot on the main roster. I don't even doubt her potential to possibly become a main event rotation player. As for her work, I think she haashown a lot of improvement and I actually enjoy her matches a lot now."
"Shes an underated performer. She definitely is influenced by the late but great daffney. Needs a good rivalry to finally get the fans behind her more."
[8.0] "Tatum is the embodiment of trust the process. Shes got an amazing character some damn good mic skills shes good in ring & pays homage to the greats like Daffney. Shes made herself stand out against the NXT PC recruits from both her classes & the ones that came after shes a star. She got over really fast with the Tyra story with ms Valkyria & now her gold obsession storyline is getting her opportunities everywhere with Jordynne Grace & I feel soon it could lead to either a North American title win or she could get a shot at the womens tag belts with new apparent ally Izzy Dame. One things for sure is that Tatums got it!"
