The most underrated winner?

The most underrated winner?

I am currently near the end of my journey of binging every single international Drag Race season (yes, I know, I am insane) and I was really excited for Italia 2. Despite not being the biggest fan of seasons 1 and 3, Nehellenia (my GAS winner) being on the cast and the ridiculousness of a queen being named Obama immediately drew me in. While GAS was airing, I was honestly confused on how Nehellenia lost her original season.
La Diamond is why.
This queen served pure, absolute, unfiltered CUNT every episode. She fully could've pulled a Keiona and placed in the top for every episode and it would be justified. Every runway was absolutely gorgeous, and she had such a strong confessional presence. Everything I love about all of my favorite winners combined into one queen.
Unfortunately, I feel like I never see anyone talking about her. Italia is one of the least known franchises. But I think, in a hypothetical world where language barriers don't exist, La Diamond would have a solid chance of winning on any All Winners, no matter who is on the cast. The only winners who I think compare to her in full-blown dominance across the board are The Vivienne, Keiona, and Envy Peru.
What do you guys think of La Diamond? I just rarely see her getting her flowers and think she is absolutely spectacular. Also, who do y'all think is the most underrated winner?
