8. Hell Have To Learn The WWE Style
KENTA has been a professional wrestler in Japan for 14 years. Thats a hell of a long time. Japan has its own style of wrestling which is very different to the WWE style. This is the reason why talent, no matter how accomplished they are, get sent to NXT. They need to be re-moulded into a WWE wrestler. Experienced British wrestlers who have previously been in NXT have told me how their independent accomplishments have been totally disregarded and theyve been put into the beginners class to start with, before it was realised that they were far more skilled than that and were quickly put into an advanced class. But if youve been wrestling a particular style for 14 years, its going to be very difficult to adapt to the WWE style. Psychologists will tell you that its much, much harder to break old habits than form new ones. But NXT will be the place for him to adapt and learn. The disastrous experience of Sin Cara refusing to go to developmental and debuting on the main roster has taught the WWE to send everyone, no matter who they are, through the NXT system. The fact that they now have the amazing Performance Center, which KENTA himself visited in January this year, will make the move to Florida more palatable.
