8 Wrestlers That Could Benefit From A Run In WWE NXT

2. Damien Sandow

When your career ends up with you being in a Mega Powers rip-off tag team, you know it's not a good sign. What a difference a year makes, huh? This time last year Damien Mizdow was by far the most popular wrestler on RAW as he entertained audiences every week as The Miz's stunt double. But once they started the breakup at WrestleMania 31, there was no plan on how to follow it up with Sandow. He'd end up in a tag team with Curtis Axel as a Savage and Hogan tribute act but when the Hogan scandal broke last summer, that was the end of that gimmick. Ever since, he's been relegated to B shows and inevitably ends up looking at the lights. There's no better time for Sandow to go back down to NXT and work with the coaches on coming up with a long-term gimmick for him that could work on the main roster. At just 33 years old, there's plenty of time left to find his money making gimmick, but he has to be thinking long-term because as the fallout from Mizdow showed us, WWE won't be there to come up with something once your popular run comes to an end.
