Before WhatCulture turns into an online version of HELLO! magazine, let's get back to some good old-fashioned, solid pro wrasslin'.

NXT is up next (ha), and in exhaustive style too. At the time of publishing in late-November, an eye-watering 66 wrestlers had been called up from WWE's in-house development league to the main roster heights of Raw and SmackDown. As most will know, the success rate of that 66 has been a bit of a mixed bag, and some have been forgotten altogether.

All three members of The Shield are in there, and so are ex-employees like Simon Gotch, Eva Marie, Adam Rose and Summer Rae. It won't surprise anyone to learn that quartet fill some of the lower slots on the list compared to Messrs Reigns, Rollins and Ambrose, but it's cool they're there.

Also, that number one spot is gonna' annoy quite a few people. Bring it on.
