To think, he's only 29 and already has it all. Good physical condition, safe yet believable wrestling style, and great mic skills. Could easily be a main eventer at any point in his career.

Ilja Dragunov needs to become IC Champion on main roster

This man doesn't have a bad match. The passion he shows is absolutely amazing and definitely believable as a performer. He has the "it" factor.

The sky is the limit for this guy, easily my favorite WWE Superstar and he hasn’t even made the main roster yet

This guy, when NXT Europe arrives hopefully by year's end, should be the face of the brand.

An anime nerd? That’s a hobby! Hahaha he’s just being cute when he says he doesn’t have a hobby.
