The second NXT UK superstar on the list, WALTER is the current NXT UK Champion and leader of the Imperium stable which features Alexander Wolfe and NXT Tag Team Champions Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel.

Standing at 193 cm (6'3") tall with a weight of 140 kg (about 308 lbs.), WALTER is a dominating presence in NXT. This presence is warranted, as in the ring he is one of the most violent wrestlers in the world. Rather than using flashy moves, WALTER usually opts for simple-but-brutal strikes on his opponents that look agonizing - most famously, his chops, which are considered to be among the hardest of all-time.

WALTER is also a master of in-ring storytelling, with an effective methodical style, expert of heelish tactics, and outstanding body language which give off a dominant aura around him, that might only be matched by the likes of Brock Lesnar or Braun Strowman.

Considering how Vince McMahon famously has a penchant for wrestlers of a large stature, and how effective a heel he is, it is very possible that WALTER is destined for great things in the WWE.
