#3 Tyler Breeze

Tyler Breeze had quite the wait for his call-up

Well, where to start with Tyler Breeze? A mainstay of the NXT brand during his time there, always the almost man, lingering about the main event scene and even wrestling a certain Jushin Thunder Liger. Breeze spent five years in NXT and always seemed like he was the next man to get a shot at the NXT Championship, but it never quite happened for him.

While Breeze has now turned lemons into lemonade with the Fashion Police gimmick where he and Fandango have their own 'Fashion Files' parody segments, it seems like WWE didn't even want to give them a chance to have a Tag Team Championship run.

Breeze debuted on the main roster, though, in a rivalry with Dolph Ziggler that never quite took off and somehow ended up going on a 20 match losing streak. At least he's still appearing on television, though, but in-ring wins are difficult to come by for Prince Pretty.
