8 Storylines For NXT Superstars Debuting In WWE

3. Hideo Itami - Corporate Killer

Better known as KENTA to fans of Japanese wrestling, Hideo Itami was put over as a sort of special attraction on the recent NXT pay per view. He didn't have a match, but was presented to the crowd in a suit by William Regal, before easily fighting off a surprise attack from The Ascension (a heel tag team). It would be interesting to play off this on the main roster, but with a heelish twist. Emphasising Itami's links with the WWE's top brass (Triple H posted a picture of the pair shaking hands on Twitter when he was initially signed), the Japanese star could be brought in as a ruthless enforcer for The Authority - perhaps even as a personal bodyguard to Triple H and Stephanie. This would then add to the already existing friction between Orton, Rollins and Kane, potentially leading to a face turn for one or more of the Authority-affiliated wrestlers (and a much-needed refreshment of the WWE's upper-midcard). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt6pyJ8rnuA
