10 WWE Wrestlers Set For Career-Best Years In 2021
6. Kyle O'Reilly
The culmination of 2020 has been a relatively strong time for Kyle O'Reilly, and 2021 seems ready to embrace him and keep this success going. This member of the Undisputed Era has been a thoroughly fantastic presence on NXT for the past three years, and his insertion into the gold brand's main title picture is a bright display of his potential.
The Ring Of Honor alumni is a thoroughly talented performer, with a remarkable ability to tell stories in the ring. His simple presentation, compared with his expressions and exciting moveset make it easy to focus on the skill of his performances as opposed to any gimmick or style.
That is not to suggest that O'Reilly isn't charismatic, however, as his presence has always been a tonne of fun, even with the simple act of using his NXT Tag Title as a guitar. This charisma is something that makes him incredibly likeable, even if he is playing the role of a heel.
His upcoming title match with Finn Bálor, and previous attempts to capture the big golden belt prove the potential he has as a main eventer in the brand, and next year will likely be when we see this come to fruition.
