Ranking WWE's First Ever NXT Class - From Worst To Best
18. Mike Dalton
Mike Dalton was considered something of a wrestler's wrestler from his earliest days within WWE, and as usual that tag is as much a blessing as a curse under the purview of the market leader.
One of the early NXT call-ups to suffer shockingly lazy mismanagement on the main roster, Tyler Breeze nonetheless remained part of the system in the years hence thanks to his beloved unit with Fandango. After about a year as the best things on SmackDown in 2017, injuries robbed them of prime main roster years before a 2019 return to the black and gold brand. That lasted until 2021, when both were released.
Rewarded for his skills and fundamentals later rather than sooner, Breeze was eventually brought back as a Performance Center coach, alongside working independent dates here and there with an approximation of the gimmick that gave him his biggest successes.
