10 Huge Signings WWE Must Make In 2019

6. Pentagon Jr.

Daniel Cormier Batista WWE
Lucha Underground

This mad skeleton ninja is totally unique. His aura, presence, and mystique are through the roof. WWE don’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to protecting such things, of course - look at bloody Asuka - but they should at least try to make it work, because Penta would be a huge hit if given a chance to work his dark, evil magic.

Pretty much everyone knows Pentagon by now, and his exposure increased to new levels after becoming Impact Champion earlier this year and stealing the show versus Kenny Omega at ALL IN. He’s a spectacle: a guy who gets by primarily on character and aura, though he’s no slouch in the ring. Far from it, in fact, and while his style is very indie-riffic, Pentagon’s matches are regularly some of the most exciting on the independents and in Impact.

See his recent feud with Sami Callihan for proof of Penta’s violent delights. Things won’t get that bloody in WWE, but imagine this crazy bastard’s reign of terror over NXT. The fans would surely lap it up… until he got called up to the main roster and turned into the Lucha House Party’s weird goth mate.
