10 Indie Wrestling Acts WWE Must Sign For NXT In 2016
6. Austin Aries
When Samoa Joe squared off with Kevin Owens at the end of NXT Takeover: Unstoppable this past May, it seemed like hell had frozen over because after years of staying away from signing Former TNA talents, WWE had debuted one of TNAs biggest names on an NXT Network special. With Joes success in the NXT brand, it opened the door for James Storm to compete in a few match ups on NXT TV but in 2016, this should lead to Austin Aries finally making his way to the WWE. After a long career in TNA, Aries is now at a point in his career where its now or never for him to get into the company and have a shot at a decent run. While Aries isnt the biggest guy in the world, hes a phenomenal worker and has a great charisma which would make him a compelling interview and character. Having competed with a lot of WWE stars over the years, it would be familiar territory for The Greatest Man That Ever Lived and hed finally get the chance to prove himself in front of the rabid NXT crowds worldwide.
