#4: Hideo Itami
It is strange to think that Hideo Itami was on the same level as that of Daniel Bryan, AJ Styles and Samoa Joe in mid 2000s. He was one of the brightest prospects in the Japanese wrestling circuit during that time.
Itami's finisher was adopted by CM Punk and Daniel Bryan, who both became insanely popular in WWE. Itami joined NXT in 2014, but it took over three years for him to debut on the main roster.
Itami's talents are currently being wasted on 205 Live. Hideo Itami joining AEW will help them cater to the hardcore Japanese audiences as well. Itami was a major name in Japanese wrestling not so long ago, and could easily regain his mojo with the new promotion.
WWE is not entirely at fault for Itami's failures though. His unfortunate and untimely injuries never helped him accelerate his career.
