10 Most Successful Third-Generation WWE Wrestlers

10. Andrade "Cien" Almas

Almas' third-generation credentials come from being the nephew of a luchador by the name of Jesus Andrade Salas and the grand-nephew of a wrestler known as El Moro.

He spent several years making a name for himself in Mexico and Japan, before eventually signing a developmental contract with WWE in 2015.

While Almas got off to a bit of a slow start in NXT, once he turned heel (and ditched the dreadful suspenders), things began to take off. The high flyer then established himself as one of the company's premier in-ring performers. In particular, his series of matches against Johnny Gargano served to demonstrate the kind of talent the third-generation star possess. Adding Zelina Vega to the mix has also helped boost the Mexican star's stock. Vega's ability to cut scathing promos on Almas' behalf, has gone a long way in terms of enchanting his heel persona, which helped him become a headlining act during his time in NXT.

At present, winning the NXT Championship and being called up to the SmackDown roster are the most significant accomplishments of Andrade "Cien" Almas' young career. That being said, the 28-year old still has plenty of time to build on his success.
