2. Dylan Miley

WWE clearly has big things in store for Dylan Miley. The 300+ pound behemoth made his proper NXT debut this past week, teaming with Michael Blais in a losing effort against #DIY. It was Miley who arguably got the biggest rub in the match however, getting to showcase his strength and even destroying his partner. The man with big hands has been kept in the shadows for a while - now he has been unleashed.

It is going to be a long road to the top for the relatively inexperienced Miley, but if he stays free of injury (he has a history of knee issues) then big things could well be in his future. How big? In years gone by his ceiling may well have been 'short feud with The Undertaker', but the WWE Performance Center means that the opportunities to improve are endless for those willing to work.

Dylan Miley may just get an NXT Championship run in the future. His name would stand out like a sore thumb in the list of champions, but WWE has to start giving props to the Performance Center at some point. Miley may not have the reputation of Nakamura, Owens, Bálor, Joe, Roode, Zayn, or any of the men before him in this list - but he is a monster with a big future.
