If there's one thing that can easily be said about WALTER, it's that no fan would ever want to step into the ring with him. Even though wrestling might be "fake", those chops sure aren't, as he levels into his opponents with brutal strikes that make his matches almost as uncomfortable to sit through as a Nick Gage death match.

Despite having just lost his United Kingdom Championship, the man known as WALTER has proven himself to be an absolute wrecking ball on the NXT UK roster. The Austrian-born wrestler's most notable characteristic is his ability to leave opponents red-raw after eating his fists and palms. Even the biggest NXT UK stars have come out of his matches with unrelenting damage taken.

It seems clear that WALTER is destined for big things in the company, as his size is exactly what upper management looks for in a wrestler. There is, of course, a fear that his strong style might need to be toned down if he makes it to the main roster, but even if he were to half the amount of damage he does, he'd still be terrifying to watch.
