#3 Curtis Axel
Trending
Curtis Axel has loads of technical ability and a family name every WWE fan will recognise and associate with greatness, but every time WWE tries to push him, something goes wrong and he goes back to being a glorified jobber.
He is a former Intercontinental and Tag Team champion, so it's not as if he hasn't seen success in his career. Debuting with a name like Michael McGillicutty didn't help Axel early in his run, but there was a glimmer of hope when he was repackaged as Curtis Axel.
WWE doesn't seem to have any intention of giving him another serious push on the main roster when it has so many other options to choose from, but spending some time in NXT might change management's mind about him.
His presence would allow for some fresh feuds with the top stars in the developmental system, and it would give him a chance to regroup and eventually return to Raw or SmackDown as a new man.
