Top 5 Pro Wrestlers Who NEED a Double Agent/Mole Storyline Right Now
After Alisha Edwards pulled off that masterful double agent act — playing nice with Moose while secretly feeding intel and helping Eddie Edwards/The System before turning at TNA Rebellion — the wrestling world is craving more of that slow-burn betrayal magic.
A great "mole" storyline is when a wrestler infiltrates a rival group or feigns loyalty to one side, builds trust, then flips the script at the perfect moment for maximum chaos and heat.
It's storytelling gold that delivers shock, long-term payoffs, and faction drama. So my latest Top 5 is about wrestlers who should get this treatment ASAP.

Top 5 Pro Wrestlers Who NEED a Double Agent/Mole Storyline Right Now
Bayley is already teasing that unhinged edge lately. Imagine her offering a "master plan" to help The Judgment Day bring Finn Bálor back into the fold and stabilize the group. She gets JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio to win the tag titles as part of the deal... only for them to kick Roxanne Perez out and recruit Bayley instead.
The slow build of Bayley playing both sides — smiling face to JD/Dom while secretly plotting her own takeover — would be chef's kiss. Bayley’s charisma makes her perfect for the fake ally role before the big double-cross.
Alicia Atout mic skills and backstage presence scream "trusted insider." She could slide into MJF’s orbit as a supposed strategist, offering a bulletproof plan to help him retain the AEW World Title long-term. At the same time, she works behind the scenes to ensure FTR retains the AEW World Tag Team Championships.
The payoff? Guiding either Mercedes Moné or Zayda Steel (or both) to the AEW Women’s Championship and forming a powerful new faction with her as the mastermind pulling strings from the shadows. A smart, corporate-style mole in a chaotic AEW landscape would feel fresh.
Taryn could play the supportive veteran perfectly in the Knockouts division. She positions herself as the glue to help Elayna Black and Arianna Grace form a dominant trio and capture the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Championships. Meanwhile, she quietly works to position Indi Hartwell for a run at the TNA Knockouts World Championship.
The slow reveal that she’s been playing favorites and sabotaging others for her preferred allies would create massive ripple effects in TNA’s women’s scene.
Kendal Grey has that cool, calculated heel energy that fits a mole role like a glove. Picture her pretending to support Wren Sinclair in her quest to dethrone Lola Vice for the NXT Women’s Championship. Once Wren wins, Kendal helps merge The Vanity Project with Sinclair’s crew to relaunch a stronger New No Quarter Catch Crew (adding Izzi Dame).
Then she maneuvers Skylar Raye into the group to steal the NXT Women’s North American Championship from Tatum Paxley. A multi-step infiltration that rebuilds a faction from the inside out? Yes please.
Myla Grace is primed for this. She could start by helping Elayna Black form a solid team, then bring in Xia Brookside to create a powerful trio. The twist: Myla engineers Xia Brookside beating Arianna Grace for the TNA Knockouts Championship before Lei Ying Lee gets her shot — positioning her allies on top while looking like she’s just being a helpful friend.
The eventual reveal that she was orchestrating everything for her own crew’s dominance would hit hard.
