Once pegged as the hottest prospect in the company, SANADA's buzz has cooled significantly over the past year. He's still effortlessly smooth between the ropes, but most fans (this writer included) need to see more charisma before picking him for main event stardom.

Prediction: Intercontinental Title contender.
