8. Joe Coffey

Age: 31

What They're Doing Now: The thick and muscled Scot is currently part of the Gallus faction on NXT UK. He main evented the first ever UK TakeOver against Pete Dunne in January, and reports online suggest legends like Triple H and Shawn Michaels love what they're seeing from him. They're finally seeing what everyone who watches the indy scene already knew.

The Future: Anyone who regularly tunes into companies like ICW or watched Coffey in WCPW/Defiant will know what he has to offer. There's an old-school sensibility to his work; Joe wouldn't have looked out of place on old NWA cards in the 80s. His style is rugged, and he's capable of working great matches with all shapes and sizes.

The most logical place for Coffey is as the leading light on NXT UK in 2020. With no guarantees that Walter will stick around long term or that Dunne won't move full time to NXT proper, Joe could end up ruling the offshoot brand.
