2. If You Loved Kaval, KENTA Will Be Your Favorite New Wrestler
The last time that there was such a hue and cry about a heavy kicking and striking-based junior heavyweight joining the ranks of World Wrestling Entertainment, it was when Low Ki left the ranks of the indies and signed with the company in 2008. Similar to Kaval (the name Low Ki adopted in WWE), KENTA has a certain swagger to him that mixes well with an urban demographic, while as well being believable as a world-beater despite his size. Those fearful for KENTA in WWE look to Kaval's time on the NXT program as though the eventual winner, the on-screen mentee of Layla El and Michelle McCool. Furthermore, once on Smackdown, his early showings against Dolph Ziggler showed promise, but eventually matches against the Big Show and other massively-sized talents were deemed by fans to be proof of WWE's lack of desire to give him the type of opponents with which he could have the athletic and hard-hitting matches upon which he had built his name. What separates KENTA from Kaval is that KENTA may be a bit more well-rounded as an entertainer, as in understanding the non-wrestling part of pro wrestling to a certain extent, he has a space for development to become the type of well-rounded character that is not solely dependent upon having great matches to make an impact in World Wrestling Entertainment.
