10 WWE Superstars who proved the critics wrong in 2017

#4. James Ellsworth

James Ellsworth won over the WWE Universe

The story of James Ellsworth speaks for itself, he was enhancement talent brought in to put over Braun Strowman, but found himself impressing so much that the WWE kept him around, even having him beat AJ Styles more than once!

However once his programme with Styles ended and he paired up with Carmella, even I must admit that I thought he wouldn't be sticking around for much longer. But he was released almost a year later and the entire WWE Universe was upset about it because Ellsworth had proven his worth.
