8 Wrestlers That Could Benefit From A Run In WWE NXT
7. Sin Cara
The Lucha Dragons were a hit tag team in NXT throughout 2014 before being promoted to the main roster last year. When Sin Cara got injured at the end of the year, it left an opportunity for Kalisto to go solo and begin his run as United States Champion. Now that Sin Cara is back, he's kind of stuck in limbo in that the company clearly want to start pushing Kalisto as their new Mexican babyface star, leaving Cara without a full-time partner and little to do. Jorge Arias originally played Hunico in WWE before taking over the Sin Cara gimmick from Mistico, but with his tag partner flying solo, it seems like a return to his old stomping ground in Florida would be the best thing for him. At 38 years old, Arias would probably prefer to freshen up the Sin Cara character rather than abandon it completely and start from scratch. If he was able to add some dark elements to the character and have a 6-9 month heel run in NXT, that could set him up for a big return to take on Kalisto in a battle of the Lucha Dragons. Otherwise, I fear he'll end up in Superstars purgatory for the rest of his WWE run.
