Another victim of what I call the NXT Success curse, Bo Dallas is one of the reasons why I truly got interested in NXT. As the youngest to ever hold the yellow brands strap at 22, Bo had an incredible run of 363 days as the NXT Champion.
When he arrived on the main roster, I sincerely had high hopes for the third generation superstar. While Dallas doesn't have the average, cookie-cutter, chiseled physique, he more than makes up for it in charisma and comedic value.

Bo has done what he can, with what he's been handed. Unfortunately, angles such as the Social Outcasts aren't conducive to a championship career.
Along with the fact that Bo hasn't necessarily been able to set the world on fire just yet, he's also dealing with a new hand of drama, stemming from the recent issues he had with a commercial airline company, which couldn't have come at a worse time.
Dallas is talented, but he doesn't have that draw and wow factor that his brother, Bray Wyatt, possesses. Unless there's a major shift in the universe relatively soon, don't be surprised to see Bo Dallas called to the carpet on black Friday 2017.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
