#2 Heavy Machinery

Otis Dozovic and Tucker Knight, known collectively as Heavy Machinery
Otis Dozovic and Tucker Knight, known collectively as Heavy Machinery

Real Names: Nikola Bogojevik and Levi Cooper.

Height and Weight: 5'10" 310 lbs (Otis) and 6'2" 320 Lbs (Tucker.)

Years in the business: 6 (Otis, Journeyman) and 8 (Tucker, Journeyman.)

Both Tucker Knight and Otis Dozovic were standout amateur wrestling champions. Otis was a medalist at the Pan-American games, and Tucker was an All American wrestler.

Both sought out careers in sports entertainment immediately after graduation. Otis worked for the regional promotions in the Colorado area, but Tucker was drafted right out of college by the WWE.

The team of Heavy Machinery was well-received in NXT, becoming one of the most popular tag teams seemingly overnight.

Their "Steaks and Weights" catchphrase was chanted from pillar to post. Then they joined the main roster and have quickly been lost in the shuffle.

Why they deserve a push: Simply put, the pair are amazing athletes, incredibly powerful yet displaying a grace that belies their bulk.

Also, their amateur wrestling background helps to legitimize sports entertainment in ways that are more profound than most people think.

Add in the fact that they both display a ton of charisma (especially Otis) and you have a team that could be mentioned in the same breath as the Midnight Express someday--if given a chance.
