10 Wrestlers Failed By NXT
5. Brodus Clay
What could have been if Brodus Clay had been introduced as anything but a dancing dinosaur? If you could have even taken the dinosaur part out, things might have been so different. Sadly that’s what we got, and Clay’s WWE career was doomed to failure from the start.
Before he left the company, however, he did make his way down to NXT for a bit looking to put the Funkasaurus behind him.
Unlike others who did the same thing, Clay never really got going. Instead, he served as an impressive opponent for Neville as they established The Man That Gravity Forgot's credentials. He was released from his contract only a couple of months after popping up on NXT and he has since made the move to TNA.
Rumour has it, that to this day, mentioning his 'momma' makes him break out in a cold sweat.
