#8 Bo Dallas
Bo Dallas was once the longest reigning NXT Champion and had an impressive main roster debut in the Royal Rumble where he lasted 20 minutes and eliminated the then Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett, and then defeated him again in singles action the next night on RAW. He even defeated Dolph Ziggler and The Great Khali during an initial win streak.
However, it all went downhill for Dallas after he defeated Mark Henry three times in singles and tag team action.
Well, immediately after that when Mark Henry effectively squashed Bo in a Hell In A Cell pre-show match. The former NXT Champion then had a four-month spell on the sidelines that effectively killed his singles push.
Bo's return saw him tell Sting to Bo-lieve to be greeted with a Scorpion Death Drop, and also interrupt Brock Lesnar to be decimated by The Beast Incarnate.
Spells in the Social Outcasts and The Miztourage have saw Dallas get rare TV time, but his singles push seems well and truly gone.
#7 Curtis Axel
As we know all too well, having a famous parent in wrestling can be either a blessing or a curse. For Curtis Axel, being the son of 'Mr. Perfect' Curt Hennig didn't seem to hinder him at all under the name Michael McGillicutty in NXT.
Axel was the runner-up of season two of NXT in its original contest form and even represented Nexus on the main brand, before returning to NXT as the top star he was before leaving.
While he was never an NXT Champion, he was always highly rated and was even paired with Paul Heyman upon his main roster call-up.
Everything looked great on paper. With Heyman by his side, Curtis Axel won the Intercontinental Championship, but Brock Lesnar's advocate left Axel behind before he had even dropped the belt - which didn't take too long to follow.
The Axe Man was so forgettable without Heyman that he was sadly named 'Mr. Irrelevant' for a spell, before joining the Social Outcasts and sadly being known more for bumbling promos than his in-ring prowess.
Something needs to change for Axel.
#6 Dana Brooke
Dana Brooke is an odd one. When we do see her, she absolutely smashes it - but we just never see her.
Brooke has always been highly valued as a talent outside the ring, being Emma's mouthpiece before crunching the numbers for Titus Worldwide. Sadly, though, inside the ring we have seen Brooke lose in quick succession time and time again.
Dana Brooke has gained quite the cult following while on RAW with fans always clamouring to see her compete, and Brooke herself has even taken some jabs at WWE Creative. Will she be pushed, or will she leave?
