#2 Current WWE NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes
Since his WWE NXT debut as a responder to Kushida's Cruiserweight Championship open challenge, Hayes has grown leaps and bounds to become one of the centerpieces of NXT 2.0.
He won the 2021 NXT Breakout tournament by defeating Odyssey Jones in the final match. Hayes has since won the NXT North American Championship. Charismatic with the capability to gain heel heat, Carmelo Hayes has the potential to become a top-tier superstar on the WWE main roster. WWE needs a new generation of villains, and Hayes can lead them by becoming a world champion.
#1 WWE NXT 2.0 star Bron Breakker
At this point, Bron Breakker not winning a world championship down the course of his WWE career would be a bigger surprise than him winning one. Rick Steiner's son has Steiner Brothers-like skills inside the ring and tons of charisma.
He has soon become one of the top stars of WWE NXT 2.0. His NXT Championship match against Tommaso Ciampa was an unsuccessful attempt, but it was an incredible achievement for a rookie only wrestling his fourth televised match.
Breakker will surely win the NXT Championship at one point. However, the WWE management may decide to quickly send him to the main roster, where he may go on to experience further glory.
