[3.0] "She's very athletic but is sloppy with it. I've seen far too many botches from her and it unfortunately took her out of action for a while. She also can't cut a promo and has the charisma of a vaccum cleaner that hasn't been used in months."
[6.0] "She's solid in the ring, and I like her top rope (missile) dropkick; her finisher is very nice too. But that's pretty much about it. Her character is genuinely boring, and just like what everyone says, her mic skills are horrible. Her charisma is a mess too. Her injury, though, is regrettable."
[4.0] "She's fine in the ring, but severely lacks any charisma & I don't see an "it" factor from her. She's usually someone I don't stick around to watch. Her place seems to be to just fill out any of the multi-person matches that come along every so often."
[0.0] "She's not good enough in the ring to make up for her lack of charisma and mic skills. She's not terrible but she's guilty, like a lot of her contemporaries male or female, of making moves far more complicated than they need to be and just doing them for the sake of doing them. She's a charisma vacuum on top of being way too preoccupied with what average trolls on social media think. In fairness, she's definitely not the only one. She's also very preoccupied with fan's opinions of her looks on social media. To me, it's irrelevant but you give trolls credibility by acknowledging those sorts of things. Stop amplifying people that don't need it. Now she's relegated to Main Event which means "creative has nothing for you". The roster is too big for her to be taking up space on it."
[5.0] "Edit: I originally gave her a 2, but I saw her in the ring since my last rating (08/22/2024) and saw that she is really good in the ring, impressive with her high-flying moves, her finisher Z-360 is one of my favorites, but, she still has a lot to improve on the mic and in charisma"
[7.0] "Zoey Stark has the potential to be more, but I don't think she needs to be. Currently she excels as part of the roster and contributes solidly when necessary. Especially in multi-women matches she has a great presence."
[7.0] "Incredibly underrated right now, but definitely lined up well in the WWE to build an incredible career. I hope she can continue to improve in and out of the ring, it feels like every couple of months she gets a little more comfortable out there, especially in the backstage skits. Ultimately, I think the tag division will suit her best, but there's hope for her to be a compelling Women's IC or US champ one day"
[7.0] "The Austin Theory of the women's division. Great look and absolutely amazing in-ring ability. Cool moveset and very flexible in what she can do. The biggest issue is she has absolutely 0 mic skills or character skills. I genuinely can see her becoming at least a great midcarder in WWE but she really just needs to get the speaking skills down. Or at least they can try to pair her up with someone who can actually talk."
[7.0] "I've a hard time rating Stark, when she's on form like she has been in the IC Title Tournament and was when working with Trish Stratus, she's really good, but when she doesn't have someone more charismatic to play off of she really flounders"
[6.0] "She's solid in the ring, but that isn't something special considering there are still many better women wrestlers in the roster than her, she's bland in term of everything else, she's very boring, so boring that not even Trish Stratus could get her over"
[5.0] "Zoey has untapped potential, she has a solid moves and can go in the ring. Unfortunately she lacks in the character & promo department, often needing to be a member of a group, managed, or shadow someone who could elevate her status and those incidents haven't helped her as much as needed. Also, her appearance in terms of her attire need to change, the bland look need to go in order of her to better standout."
[8.0] "Zoey Stark is genuinely one of the best in-ring performers in WWE's women's division today. Her moveset (sorry Punk) is fantastic and she makes every move look so clean yet so painful. She has one of the best finishers in the business and her selling is fantastic. She has a good look and build too. The obvious problem is when you hand her a microphone, but this would be easily solvable by a good manager."
[6.0] "Very good performance in the ring but very bad gimmick and mic skills, Zoey has the potential to be an incredible superstar but needs to improve many aspects to become someone more popular"
[3.0] "I feel like she is okay at best in the ring, but her promo skills and charisma really need some improvement. She hasn't done much on the main roster besides being showcased in the mitb matches. Even Trish Stratus tried to help make her a star, but it still didn't work."
[5.0] "Zoey is honestly pretty solid in the ring, very athletic and strong while also being very good technically, I think the only problem is her ability to connect with the audience. She is someone who could really benefit from a great manger acting as her mouthpiece. 5 for now but shes still got more than enough time to improve her problem areas!"
[3.0] "In ring skills are good but that's where it ends. 0 charisma and a very boring character failing to engage the audience in her matches at all. Often feel her matches are just going from one spot to the next with no taking in of what is going on with the crowd"
[3.0] "Honestly, she is the most boring wrestler on the entire roster. In the ring it's ok, but otherwise it's really nothing and I didn't expect it given last year's push, She is still young and can certainly improve from this point of view, but I see it difficult for people to support her normally"
[6.0] "(10.0) (5.26.23) REALLY good in the ring, although she is a charisma vacuum. One of the best womens wrestlers in WWE. Miles ahead of her other NXT peers. Edit: shes getting the shotzi treatment, aka, really good in nxt just to get exposed on the main roster."
[6.0] "If were talking only about her wrestling ability then Id say shes one of the best technical wrestlers on the main roster, but with everything else in mind shes very boring. Her promos are just bad, and for whatever reason even though the crowd dont care about her at all Triple H still insists on using her when I dont think theres anything they could do to make people interested in her."
[5.0] "Just bang average, some good offense, sells well, can do a decent promo but overall she's just so basic, everything about her, she has no defining characteristics whatsoever and even when built up for big matches she's just sort of there, I still cant believe they didn't have her feud with a face Trish and beat her to get that heel heat."
[3.0] "She can't talk, act, do comedy, work a character nor show emotion. But she is a Triple H workrate pet project, and he will keep trying to push her. And every time he tries, the push will fail because the crowd doesn't really give a fuck about who Zoey Stark is."
[3.0] "Zoey stark is rated way too high. her mic skills are bad. The only good thing about her in-ring ability is her finisher and she's able to do spring-boards besides that Nobody cares about what she is doing and what she is talking about. She needs to changed her character or improved her mic skills for me to rate her higher"
[3.0] "Zoey Stark joined WWE in mid 2021, before joining WWE, she was basically envolved in some indy matches, competing as "Lacey Ryan", for me, she DOESN'T have what it takes to be an WWE superstar, I mean, she's okay in the ring, have an cool finisher and some good moves in her repertoire, but that's it, she sounds cringy outside of the ring, can't cut a promo without sounding like an sleeper, doesn't have ANY charisma, most of the times, she just appear there without any warnings, and make me think.. What is her gimmick based off? An power-muscular-sniper women? Because let's be honest, having an win against Toni Storm in the biggest PPV of NXT, winning the NXT women's tag titles with Io Sky, beating people like, Ivy Nile, Candice LeRae, Natalya, Nikki Cross more than twice, being officially called "the Trish Stratus protegé" FINISHING Trish Stratus, having TV time EVERY week, being in a team with Shayna Baszler, and STILL being an non-gimmick-charisma sleeper are something more, I can't give her more than 3 points, I don't think she will have a future spot in the division if she doesn't found her pace and character inside and outside of the squared circle, she cares for what haters say about her in the social media, and she can't keep her mouth shut, she responds all of it, and this is something un-professional about her, giving trolls and haters credibility are something dumb and completely non-sense, if Zoey don't take a break, and find her backstory, I fear she will be an forever jobber, or even get released."
[5.0] "Zoey is a great athlete and a alright worker. The thing is she is very boring and uninteresting. She has no character and is a charisma vacuum. Anytime she comes on screen I simply dont care at all."
[5.0] "In-ring she's good, other than that she doesn't have much going for her. She has no character, zero charisma and her promos are bad. Her best work was with Trish Stratus who carried Zoey on her back, her team with Shayna does not help at all in the character or charisma departments. Also her title run with Io in NXT was just pointless and an attempt to get her over by putting her with a big name star and it didn't work."
[5.0] "I don't understand any hype regarding Zoey Stark whatsoever. Sure, she is a good in-ring worker and I'll give her credit for that, but that doesn't translate well if you aren't over, which Zoey Stark has not been able to get over with anyone whatsoever. She was the babyface against Rhea Ripley at the 2023 Survivor Series and barely got any reactions. Truth be told, Zoey is a decent worker, but getting over has been a problem and might continue to be a problem if WWE can't find something to get her over with most fans, and that tag team with Shayna Baszler isn't going to do that."
[9.0] "After Asuka and Iyo, she is easily the best worker in the women's division on the main roster in WWE. It's unfortunate that she was introduced to the main roster fans alongside an ice cold feud with Trish Stratus and Becky. She'll get over eventually though, if they figure out a catch phrase or a chant for her. If not, at least she'll have good matches."
[7.0] "Quite like the look of Stark on NXT so far. She's got a no nonsense, physical style and impressed in her singles debut this past week. Actually reminds me a little of the emerging Leyla Hirsch in AEW. Legit. Interested to see where she goes from here. The NXT women's division is absolutely stacked and she'll need to stand out from the crowd."
[7.0] "She doesn't get a lot of chances to show off in the ring but when she does she looks great. Hopefully in a couple years she'll get a better handle on the mic and stuff because she could be great."
[10.0] "No doubt she is the complete package i have always been a longtime fan of zoey she was my fav woman in nxt she was the best woman there. She should have been the one to dethrone mandy for the nxt womens title it would have been perfect. She is an amazing wrestler and can have a great match with anyone. Im so glad she is finally on the main roster well deserved and she has been on fire since debuting. On raw she has already had great matches with becky, Shayna, rhea and nia .and she won a battle royal. She has the best entrance theme in the entire women's division that suits her so well and the best finisher in the entire womens division as well. Top faves in the womens division today and a future womens singles champ"
[6.0] "Zoey Stark has a lot of charisma in the ring and I personally love the interactions between her and Shayna Baszler. Her mic skill is absolutely grating at times, however it is getting better the longer she's on the main roster. Solid performer and overall good wrestler, a favorite of mine and I hope to see her grow as the years come."
[0.0] "Lackluster look, no mic skills, sloppy worker, insists on doing aerial stuff she's not good at which is dangerous. She's allegedly been doing this for 10 years w/2 in development in NXT. I'd be easier on her if she was still in developmental but she shouldn't be on the main roster. I only find 3 years of matches so maybe she'll get better. If she really has been doing this for 10 years and is still this level, she should consider an alternative field of employment. IDK maybe she's a very nice person and in solid physical shape. Personal trainer maybe?"
[7.0] "Zoey Starks is a good athlete in WWE with power and athleticism. Liked her work in NXT and her work with Trish made her look good on the main roster. Not the best on the mic or the most charismatic but she does have potential in both of those areas."
[7.0] "The first thing I have to mention about Zoey Stark is that she's a great athlete for the women's division. Not the most charismatic. I think she's best used as a heel. It fits her look and personality better. I find her promos better as a heel as well. She'll be a mainstay in the women's division for years and will put on some great matches."
[7.0] "She has potential - a decent finisher and a believeable look but currently. she's doing too much too soon - often an issue with women from NXT. The hope is she has a steady climb up the card but no championship run just yet. Working with Trish and Becky has helped but her forgetable team with Io Shirai proved that while she's decent enough in the ring, the charisma and overall package still needs tweaking."
"Zoey was called up too early. No charisma, and sloppy in the ring probably means she will be jobbing soon. Trish stratus doesnt elevate her, and that goes to show that a rub doesnt make someone better. The z 360 is also a stupid finisher that needs to go."
[4.0] "Zoey Stark is a solid worker but that is it. She is not good on the microphone and her charisma is non-existent. She can put on decent matches, but she is not very interesting and there are more interesting people on the roster that can do what she can."
[8.0] "Zoey is very confident in the ring, I like the way she moves. And this storyline push with Trish is interesting, I hope she will win something big in her career"
[8.0] "Very naturally gifted in ring. Not a lot of mainstream experience and is already on par with nearly any woman WWE or AEW has to offer. She has an aura about her that really works with the pitbull like character they're selling her as. Her actual mic work is shoddy, but again, time will help her improve upon those. Very strong eight, with room for improvement. Expecting her to be a focal point of the division in a few years."
[10.0] "She is a wrestling gem, in the ring we can really see how natural is it for her to be in this business, needs a lot more work on her character, but I'm sure she can do it, they just need to book it."
[10.0] "This wrestler is legit, looks good, looks the part, sounds the part and has the athleticism to bring a well needed intensity in the matches she works in. She's the full package and with consistency and good booking she will go very far in WWE's female division or any top wrestling company."
[7.0] "She has potential, i think she works well as a heel and she is good in the ring too. Her finisher K360 is also very cool. She was even in the Royal Rumble of 2023 so maybe she gets a callup this year"
[7.0] "She is easily a top 3 wrestler in the current NXT women's division alongside Meiko Satomura and Kay Lee Ray/Alba Fyre. Flawless execution and looks extremely beliveable. One of the best finishers in wrestling today. Her main flaw is mediocre mic skills, which could hinder how much she could get over on the main roster. After an impressive showing at the Rumble in 2023, feels they are positioning Zoey for a MR call-up. But for that to work, they'll do her talent no justice if she's not equipped with a gimmick or a mouthpiece to sell her as a badass heel. Hopefully they can get this sorted in the PC because Stark is one of the best pure female talents in the company, better than a good deal of main roster women."
[8.0] "I think she has a world of potential, she has fantastic looking signature moves and is a solid worker overall who honestly outshines a good portion of the NXT class of women's wrestlers. She can heel it up well and work the crowd and in the ring to bend matches into really cool bouts. I'm still sticking with an 8 for now, but I do not think her ceiling has been reached at all."
[8.0] "Not only top tier in Ring for NXT, but could easily keep up with anyone on the main roster, and wrestle circles around a few. This new heel character might just be the opportunity she needed to put it all together into something truly great. I'm not as critical of her mic work as others I've seen, but I concede she needs a bit more work (or, possibly, more freedom from the scripted promo). The skits last year with Io show she has the talent to be entertaining, so I think she'll find a way to come up to speed."
[8.0] "Easily one of the most believable looking wrestlers on NXT and especially NXT 2.0. The only critique I could give is her promo and look but even then she isn't even that bad in that regard. NXT 2.0 desperately needs to push a girl who is believable as a wrestler and Stark is perfect for that."
