10 Indy Wrestling Stars WWE Would Ruin

10. WALTER

WALTER is bloody ace.

He's a big hard b*stard who knows he's a big hard b*stard, and is secure enough in his character to only showcase his freakish athleticism when the match - the opponent - drags it out of him. He performs the best no-sell spot this side of Tomohiro Ishii. He doesn't laugh maniacally, like a cartoonish movie villain. He simply shoots his opponents a piercing stare, as if to say: Why are you trying to hit me? Trying to hit me is pointless. He then draws hardway blood from their chests with the sickest chops on the worldwide scene. Watch closely, and you'll see his opponents literally brace themselves before impact. They know what's coming is going to f*cking hurt. A lot.

The problem with WALTER - or WWE's problem with him - is that blood is the rare preserve of the main event club. Guys are allowed to work snug - consider Sheamus - but not WALTER snug. The man is redefining stiffness more than John Holmes did.

There's also the physique thing to consider. WALTER is not defined. It doesn't matter that he's profoundly harder-looking than Jinder Mahal. He's "fat", by WWE standards - and if Randy Orton can still use McDonalds in a jab at Kevin Owens, a guy with an inferior promo game is knackered.
