8 Wrestlers Who Are In The Wrong Promotion

6. Adam Cole - NXT

Adam Cole, Bay-Bay! The Panama City Playboy is guaranteed to end up in the clutches of World Wrestling Entertainment eventually, it is merely a question of when rather than if. At only 26-years-old, Cole is already as well-rounded a performer as anyone you are going to find on the independent scene. His character traits are on point, and everything he does in the ring seems to have a purpose. He also has people within WWE and NXT rooting for him. Barely a Kevin Owens interview goes by without him mentioning Cole's name in reference to the individual he feels should get the NXT call next. A number of Cole's best opponents also find themselves within the halls of the Performance Centre. Cole would be a great fit on NXT. He has the talent and ability to be a hit on RAW and SmackDown, but NXT is most definitely the place to be right now.
