10 NXT Superstars Who Will Dominate WWE 2015

4. Hideo Itami

Hideo Itami, known as Kenta to many, is one of the most decorated wrestlers in the world today. In all honesty, Itami would warrant a place on the full roster already, such are his achievements. To give you an idea of what a star Itami is, Hulk Hogan was flown to the Far East to oversee the ceremonial contract signing. Debuting in 2000, Itami is a former four-time tag team champion, three-time junior heavyweight champion and former heavyweight champion in his native land. He was named number 22 n Pro Wrestling Illustrated's PWI 500 in 2013 and is credited with creating CM Punk's finisher, the Go To Sleep. Hideo debuted at NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way, and has become embroiled in a rivalry with The Ascension, an angle which saw a return to WWE television for Funaki. That's best for business, INDEED. Since then he has formed an alliance with Finn Bálor, making many independent wrestling fans' dreams come true.
