8 Wrestlers That Could Benefit From A Run In WWE NXT

Some stars need a fresh coat of paint, so lets send them down to Full Sail...

When Tyson Kidd was returning from injury back in 2014, instead of coming back to the main roster and probably ending up treading water on Superstars and Main Event, he went to NXT and with the help of Dusty Rhodes and others, discovered his character and became a great heel. With the slow-burn of using his wife Natalya to get victories and the increased focus on him loving cats, the fans down at Full Sail were eating up this new and improved Tyson Kidd. He always had the in-ring talent, but only truly developed his character while bending bones down in Orlando. Now, as 2016 is well and truly underway, there are several acts on the WWE roster who are in desperate need of a stint in so-called developmental, to work with younger guys and help work on their current character or just wipe the slate clean and try something new. With weekly exposure via the WWE Network, and the Takeover specials being among the most popular events of the year, a run down in NXT could do wonders for some of the jobbers and afterthoughts on the WWE roster, putting them on Vince's radar once more. Before we begin, I've chosen not to include The Social Outcasts due to them being a regularly booked act on RAW (which I can't see going much further than where they're currently at given the talent pool on the main roster), so incase you're wondering why they aren't featured, that's why. With that out of the way, here are 8 acts that I think would benefit tremendously from an extended run down at the Performance Center working with NXT.
