NXT Underdogs: 5 Names You Need To Remember

#1 AUSTIN ARIES

It's time to fish or cut bait for Aries.

For some reason, some fans have forgotten about Aries being in NXT. This is one guy who everyone should know about. The former TNA World Champion is ready to take the next step in dominating NXT singles competition before fast-tracking to the main roster an yes, he's worthy.

Aries is also a two-time Ring of Honor World Champion, former Ring of Honor tag team champion, former TNA tag team champion and a six-time TNA X-Division champ.

The accolades and accomplishments are in place. Aires doesn't have to prove what he's done, he just has to prove he's got enough gas left in the tank. At 38 years old, he's got to start gaining attention immediately.

If Austin gets overlooked even once, it may be one too many and any dreams of making it to the WWE main roster could disappear in an instant.
