3. Tyler Breeze

Another Storm student that appears to have all the upside in the world, only hindered by a diminutive frame (by WWE standards, anyway). From his commitment to the narcissism of his character, to the brilliant concept of the selfie Titan Tron video, Breeze's character was more than eye-catching. His ring work was also top notch, as seen in matches with Hideo Itami, Apollo Crews, and Sami Zayn.

Breeze debuted on the main roster with flourish, going over on Dolph Ziggler at Survivor Series. The push almost immediately died, killed off for unclear reasons this past December.

Since then, Breeze has been little more than a singles version of The Ascension, a stepping stone to put others over, rarely winning whatsoever.
