This week’s NXT was all about redemption, as three rematches flooded the card, but made for some damn good in-ring action.
Check out this week’s NXT Power Rankings to see what NXT superstars are already WWE ready.
Honorable Mention: Mojo Rawley: The fans love him, but his moveset is straight from the ‘80s. All strikes and simple offense, Rawley needs a move set that takes more advantage of his athletic ability. Otherwise he’ll never make the cut in the WWE.
5: Tyler Breeze: A Gorgeous George/Dolph Ziggler combination, Breeze’s entrance is a damn cool heel, even if he’s a bit flamboyant. His Beauty Shot Spinning Wheel Kick is nifty and it earned him a win against the more accomplished Xavier Woods this week on NXT. Although he’s not quite WWE ready and may not have what it takes to win the NXT Title, he’s definitely someone that can round out the bottom of the card on Smackdown or Main Event.
4: Charlotte Flair: Sure, she lost to Natalya Neidhart this week, but she’s still arguably one of the most intriguing Divas on the NXT roster. Her eventual match with NXT Women’s Champion Paige will be an excellent one.
3:Corey Graves: A great look, charisma on the mic and a cool submission finisher? Graves has it all. Similar to CM Punk but lacking the supporting move set, there’s definitely room for Graves to develop. That’s exactly what he’ll do in NXT before he makes his way to the WWE. It will happen.
2: Bo Dallas: The former NXT Champion certainly has nothing to be ashamed of. Pushing Adrian Neville to the limit this week on NXT, Dallas proved he can hang in the ring with anyone in the WWE’s developmental system. Now it’s time for him to move up and make some new Bo-lievers.
1: Adrian Neville: A win over former NXT Champion Bo Dallas and a new arial finisher capped off a damn good week for Neville. With the fan’s support and plenty of polish, Neville is a star in the making. With the WWE in desperate need to replace the high-flying antics of Rey Mysterio moving forward, Neville could fill a huge void on WWE cards.
