10 Best Options To Be WWE's Next Top Guy

Despite being signed to the WWE Performance Center, Chris "Donovan" Dijak has barely appeared on NXT. Moreover, he's been given a new, stupid name that I refuse to type out (save for the header), but hasn't appeared on TV with said stupid name. Historically, keeping a superstar off NXT usually means higher powers want to put them straight on the main roster when they're ready and not have previous NXT baggage (see also: Braun Strowman, Mandy Rose).

It's easy to see why Vince and his crew would want Dijak to themselves. At six foot eight and 275 pounds, dude has the size that you can't teach, but unlike other giants from WWE's recent history, Dijak has the wrestling acumen to hold his own in the ring. With a diverse arsenal of power moves and aerial assaults, Dijak is a giant who moves like a cruiserweight. Really, if WWE are interested in pushing someone as the next Diesel, forget about Drew McIntyre, Dijak is your man.

Although, as promising as Dijak is, there's still a lot of question marks. From a character standpoint... well, he doesn't really have one. Although, given WWE, they're probably more than willing to craft one to him, and knowing Vince, Dijak is probably someone he'll have a keen personal investment with ("God damn, pal, you're HUGE!!!")

Of course, before WWE does anything with Dijak... lose that stupid name. Seriously, just call him Chris Dijak.
