#2. Former WWE NXT Champion Andrade

WWE's Andrade seemingly had it all, looks, charisma and an in-ring ability that regularly seems him involved in discussions surrounding who the best wrestler in the world is.

Unfortunately, that wasn't enough for WWE to push him towards the main event picture and he found himself more often than not feuding with other Superstars in non-title matches or in tag teams. Eventually, he asked for his WWE release and it was granted.

We saw a taste of what Andrade could do in WWE thanks to his time in NXT where he became NXT Champion and, in particular, his feud with Rey Mysterio that led to some classic matches on the main roster. With that in mind, I'm convinced that with the proper push, Andrade would be WWE's next big Latino star if they were brought back.

Plus, with Andrade's fiance Charlotte still in WWE, the former superstar has an extra incentive to return to WWE one day, even though he is currently enjoying life in AEW.
