Very few Superstars make it big in WWE at such a young age

#4 Tyler Bate (Age: 23)

Tyler Bate made history in his first-ever title reign in WWE

Born in 1997, Tyler Bate was only 19 when he won the NXT United Kingdom Championship back in 2016. He is now 23 years old and already has two WWE titles to his name – the other being the NXT Tag Team title.

He is only the second teenager in WWE history to win a title and is the third-youngest Champion in WWE history, after Nicholas (RAW Tag Team Champion alongside Braun Strowman) and René Duprée.

Bate is one of the most talented Superstars in the entire WWE roster. He is credited for a lot of incredible matches, the latest of which transpired at NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff where he challenged Walter for the United Kingdom Championship.

Although Bate was unsuccessful in regaining the Championship, his match against Walter was dubbed as one of the best bouts in WWE history and its ratings were off the charts.

Tyler Bate may be one of the youngest names in WWE today but he has certainly made a mark for himself. He is already being considered as the future headliner of popular WWE PPVs and it may not take him long to reach the top of the roster.

He works incredibly hard and has a great dedication towards the craft which will play a key role in shaping his promising career.
