There really are no other stars in the world like Zack Sabre Jr. The man is a wrestling entity in his own right, as, despite his skinny frame and lack of a superstar look, he's been tapping out heavyweights since the early days of his career, and gaining accolade after accolade. His believable style and presentation have made him a unique and sure-fire hit on the indies, but WWE wouldn't be so good to him.

Sabre Jr. is no stranger to WWE televising, as he took part in the Cruiserweight Classic, where he made it through three matches and was one loss away from the finals. Despite this impressive showing and the great impact he made, it will probably be his only time in the company.

The NJPW star is known for his dazzling array of technical offence, which sees him utilising submission holds, pinning combinations and harsh strikes. Alongside this, he presents himself with a realism that makes him seem more like a sports athlete than a performer, as his showmanship is minute.

He's a star who lets his in-ring work do the talking, and that's something WWE would probably deem "boring".
