10 WWE NXT Stars Who Have Been Down In Developmental For 5 Or More Years

To his credit, Riddick Moss in an incredible physical specimen. At first glance, he looks like someone the main roster would want to build around, except that he's still very much a work in progress.

This is despite him being with NXT since early 2014. Much like most others on this list, he was immediately slotted into an enhancement role for his first few years on the brand before finding his footing alongside Tino Sabbatelli.

As the self-professed God Gifted Athletes, Moss and Sabbatelli had strong chemistry and proved to be much better together than apart. While a run as NXT Tag Team champions was never in the cards for them, they impressed every chance they had and showed real potential in the ring.

Oddly enough, both men suffered injuries immediately after breaking up, though Moss was out of action for a lot less time than Sabbatelli (who has yet to return to NXT TV). After resurfacing at an NXT live event in late 2018, Moss went on to form another alliance with Dorian Mak. So far the duo have had minimal success.

It was rumored last summer that officials were "impressed" with Moss, but that has yet to translate to TV.
