@@N3onDionYT I mean technically it was her rookie year because she won the women’s championship less than a year after her debut. It would be a little unfair to just claim the last four months of 2022 as her rookie year
@@skylorbarrales3528yea her rookie year was from July 30 2022 to July 30 2023 which means she’s a two time tag team champ MITB winner and women’s champion.
Wasn’t the finish to that match botched? My memory’s a little fuzzy but I remember at the time it really didnt feel like the match was supposed to end there.
Ronda Rousey's rookie year really is underrated. She stole the show at WrestleMania 34, became the woman's champion, feuded with the old guard- Bella Twins and Natalya, and the new guard- Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss, beat 3/4 horsewomen and main evented WrestleMania 35. It's almost parallel to Lesnar's rookie year
Bianca Belair should've been added here in my opinion. I mean she didn't do anything for the first half of her rookie year but then went on Smackdown to feud with Bayley (a four horsewomen member), win the Royal Rumble, face Sasha Banks and also main evented Wrestlemania on her rookie year. Pretty impressive too but I think we lowkey forget that because even on her rookie year she feels like such a veteran but also the pandemic.
@@Nekk0laswe don’t know that. By 2025 it’s probably gonna be when they let the younger talent take over because all the current storylines will definitely be finished no later than WrestleMania 41 and that’s when Trick is going to get called up, and if he can keep this momentum up he’s instantly a main eventer on day one. If they wanted that man to win the 2026 Rumble atp it is what it is
@@arnellsmith first guy from newer generation to win rumble would be Gunther or bron breaker for sure. 2025 would've be last year where guys from previous generation would win. 2026 will be beginning of new storyline with new generation guys
The theory I have is that Vince McMahon's downfall was orchestrated by people within the company's leadership. If you've followed the entire drama, there was a clear power struggle: one week Triple H was in charge, the next it was Vince, then Stephanie stepped in, only to be fired and later return, and so on. I believe they wanted to get rid of Vince, and what better way to do that than with a scandal? All the information about old scandals resurfaced, seemingly aimed at silencing him for good
AJ Styles wasn't a rookie, he was already an established star outside of WWE. He was and i think will be the only wrestler outside of WWE who the casuals knew, and directly became a draw and attraction.
Kurt Angle in 2000 was GOAT’ed! The man won the European Title and then won the Intercontinental title and held them both going in that Mania. Then won King of the Ring…was in major feuds and then ultimately became WWF champion and held it the rest of the year.
I still think del rio. Not only his rookie year but his first 2 years he built a hof career and if we’re looking at it he should be a hofer lol but it’s unfortunate how things went for him but I’m glad he’s reinvented himself in Mexico he’s huge over there
@@Riley0520 you’re laughing but any other person or content creator would say the same based off his first 2 years alone it was a hof career. U got people who been in the wwe 10+ years and ain’t did what del rio did in his first 2 years. Cmon all bs asides if u don’t like the guy so what can’t deny his incredible 1st and 2 year
Carmelo Hayes looks like he will get an amazing rookie year, I wouldn’t be surprised if he won the U.S. title this year. I also think Kevin Owens should be on this list, didn't he beat John Cena in his rookie year or do I have a bad memory.
I've always said, they should have booked Rhonda like the female Stone Cold Steve Austin. Have her and Stephanie McMahon have the female version of SCSA & Vince's beef. Would have worked.
AJ Styles had the greatest rookie year ever : debuting at the royal rumble in a massive pop, having classics with the like of Cena, Reigns and Ambrose. Beating Cena clean at summerslam and winning the WWE championship at Backlash
Charlotte flair had such a good rookie year. She has won the raw woman’s championship 6 times and 4 of those times were in the first year of her main roster career
Excuse me, but I'm pretty sure that bad bunny set the bar for celebrity rookies. I don't even listen to bad bunny, but i give props where its due. He's talented. Logan Paul is more like the proof that celebs can't go below bad bunny level of in ring talent. Reason I say this is because I don't mind if a celeb comes in for a promotional run without title wins as long as the in ring work is bad bunny good. Both show that celebs that wrestle can come in, but I honestly prefer bad bunnys run over another mostly part time champion celebrity. In no way taking away from Logan Paul though. He is progressing more and more by each promo and match.
Sheamus beating cena for the title wasn't meant to happen so soon, cena slipped and fell through the table, you can tell through both of their reactions once it happened. It was hilarious
As someone who was in the audience for TLC ‘09, I still believe Cena losing was a botch. Then have a rematch at the Rumble before Cena went into his program with Batista at Mania. And correction Santi, Sheamus didn’t beat Triple H for the 2nd title. He beat Cena (c), Orton and Edge at Fatal Four Way thanks to the Nexus. But still big for Sheamus.
When do we count Bianca’s rookie year from? Do we count it from the day she turned up on Raw or the day she was drafted to Smackdown? If from Smackdown I guess she could make the list with a Rumble win and a Mania main event.
no aj styles is crazy he had top3 greatest wwe rookie years winning the wwe champoinship and beating john cena clean while having classics consistently during the whole year
Can you do most pushed wrestlers ever in the history of wwe. If you haven’t already done it. I’m a new subscriber. Like for example who is the most dominant in the past years.
Rhonda sucks at professional wrestling. Shes not even good at MMA anymore either. She doesnt deserve any of the credit given here especially for a rookie year. She never even respected or understood the business.
For men this year im thinking ilja dragunov is gonna have a great rookie year and for women lyra valkyria. But i could see blair davenport and dijak coming close maybe (we dont talk about tbar thats not DIJAK)
Im thinking Bron Breakker is gonna smash it not sure if hes a face or heel yet dont get me wrong not doing good guy things buti dont think his character is established as a heel yet though but he'll smash it either way if not him the Lyra Valkyria will smash it aswell
there's a chance we get the shield back think about it solo tama tonga tamaloa Jacob and maybe the Rock vs Seth Roman Dean Jimmy Jay at Survivor series and maybe the return of Brock Lesnar
I mean, I started watching wrestling 2 years ago and I don't know a lot about anything that happened before but, from what i've heard, I feel like Paige should be in this video. Am I right?

How are ya'll coming up with these ideas💀💀💀
This batch of NXT call-ups will be remembered as one of the best batches ever (at least I hope so) with Ilja, Melo, Bron, Lyra, and Blair
AJ Styles had the best rookie year of all time if you look at the full picture

Video idea: who will win the money in the bank briefcase from no chance, probably not, I can see it, bet the house
Paige won the divas title on her first day on the main roster that’s pretty damn good
If you ask me
Why is AJ styles not in the video? Or did I miss something?

KO did beat John Cena in his first WWE Main Roster PPV Match at 2015 Elimination Chamber. So, you're right!
@@MStoriesKJKK-pb6gc nice
And KO also won the IC title
Not having AJ and Finn on here is criminal
Finn would rather have a rookie month cuz he got injured. Or else he would've been on top of the list
Day 36 of suggesting video idea: Four horsemen (and horsewomen) of every era in the wwe
Stop skipping days. Or Oil Up
Oh yeah that would slap
They dare to compare a firecracker like Bron Breakker with the legend Brock Lesnar
I've always said, they should have booked Rhonda like the female Stone Cold Steve Austin. Have her and Stephanie McMahon have the female version of SCSA & Vince's beef. Would have worked.
AJ Styles's 2016 run should have been on the list
AJ Styles had been wrestling for about 15 years by that point 😂😂
@@MrWillb014 he has Ronda Rousey in the list too
AJ Styles had the greatest rookie year ever : debuting at the royal rumble in a massive pop, having classics with the like of Cena, Reigns and Ambrose. Beating Cena clean at summerslam and winning the WWE championship at Backlash
I knew Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar was gonna be the top 2 before I clicked on the video😂. Right choice though!
Finn had a great rookie year as well. Debuting and main eventing summerslam and beating Seth Rollins to become the inagural universal champ.
Charlotte flair had such a good rookie year. She has won the raw woman’s championship 6 times and 4 of those times were in the first year of her main roster career
Can we give Rousey the Big Show treatment from N64 no mercy and replace her from history with Stevie Richards?
Lita had a good rookie year too! Won the womens championship and was getting pops like Austin & rock
Please make a video about shawn michaels showstopping matches in your opinion or make a tier list about his matches at wrestlemania
Does anyone remember Paige defeated AJ Lee for divas championship in her first appearance on main roster ?
Alexa Bliss too, 3x Women's Champion in her first year. Walked in her first 2 WrestleMania's as SmackDown and RAW Women's Champion
Ilja should’ve gotten the brock lesnar treatment
Tiffy Time
Here after bro got ratioed by Dijak at Super Nintendo World 💀
Bron Breakker might just have the greatest rookie year for a NXT call up
Santi a rookie year is a single year of a rookie/rookies
6:08 ad lmao

You didn't include Kevin Owens ? :-(
Where the fuck is Gunther
Sheamus had a brief run on wwecw before debuting on if I remember right
Day 1 of asking Santi to ignore all the video ideas in the comments and do what he wants
Carmello is my choice to have a fantastic rookie year. He's got all the tools to do great things.
Untill they fumble him for part timers and vets
When do we count Bianca’s rookie year from? Do we count it from the day she turned up on Raw or the day she was drafted to Smackdown? If from Smackdown I guess she could make the list with a Rumble win and a Mania main event.
Where is Aj Styles!! Beat Cena twice and won the WWE Championship. Santi loves to glaze Logan and all the newer guys.
no aj styles is crazy he had top3 greatest wwe rookie years winning the wwe champoinship and beating john cena clean while having classics consistently during the whole year
Hi Santi, did you consider Paige? She became champ on her first night
True nothing could match the reign that Lesnar had, always would be be the greatest rookie year
i dont wanna see rookie i wanna see you oil pookie
Are we considering rookie year as from one WM to another or one calendar yr or that superstars first yr from debut?

The way wwe is booking ilja I think they are setting him up for a rocket push.
Of the call ups, Bron Breakker will have the best year.
Oba Femi is going to win the WWE title in his debut match and I’m not even gonna be mad
I imagine a Brock Lesnar style Rookie Year. Just Dominated, Wins the Rumble, main events wrestlemania etc

If you want to include WCW since WWE owns the company, you can add Goldberg to the list.
how are we not putting randy orton in this video he’s literally the youngest world heavyweight champion in wwe history
What of roman kicked out of that 3 crossroads cody gave him to finish the story
i think carmelo hayes or ilja dragonuv will have the best rookie year
Have to agree Logan Paul did blow us all away especially skipping nxt and has amazing matches
