#8 Akam
The younger of the Authors of Pain also has quite the impressive pedigree. A standout Amateur wrestler in his native Canada, Akam was considered to be a prospect for that country's Olympic team in 2016 but he decided to pursue pro wrestling instead. The Punjabi powerhouse has already tasted gold early in his career.
Why he's a future legend: No less than Gerald Brisco scouted Akam initially. When a WWE legend and Hall of Famer sets his sights on you for greatness, success is almost a guarantee. Akam is powerful but very, very quick, and his Olympic level wrestling ability is a huge boon as the sport of pro wrestling continues to be influenced by MMA.
