10 Wrestlers Whose Stock Has Risen In 2017
10. Breezango
Tyler Breeze and Fandango’s recent rise mirrors Jinder Mahal’s in a big way, though they were ultimately unsuccessful in their attempts at claiming gold, unlike their SmackDown brand-mate. The duo were plucked from the card’s lower reaches and thrust into number one contendership in the build-up to Backlash, and although they’ve lost two consecutive Tag Team Title shots, their stock has never been higher as a unit.
Breezango’s weekly ‘Fashion FIles’ segments have been an entertaining highlight through SD’s recent creative lull. The duo have finally been given the opportunity to flex their personalities on television, and they’re getting over at a time when the tag division desperately needs credible teams. They’ve always been entertaining, but Breezango finally feel purposeful, and they’re a great comic foil for the malevolent Usos.
There’s a good chance Breezango were only pushed as placeholder challengers ahead of The New Day’s imminent return, and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them slide back down the card before long. Here’s hoping that this isn’t the case, as the past few weeks have proven that the duo are more than capable of playing a big role on SmackDown.
