#9 Bo Dallas
If this list was strictly based off of current relevance and TV appearances, Bo Dallas would certainly be lower than Tamina. But it’s not. It’s also based on overall talent both in the ring and on the mic, and Dallas has shown he is actually pretty solid in both of those categories.
Dallas, one of Mike Rotunda’s (aka IRS) two sons, had an awesome run as NXT champion from 2013-2014. His gimmick as an oblivious, overly positive but also arrogant schmuck got him very over in WWE’s developmental brand, but it simply didn’t translate to the main roster.
It’s difficult to tell if it was misuse on the WWE’s part or if Dallas’ gimmick just wasn’t destined to work beyond a small arena like Full Sail’s. The former seems more plausible since Dallas’ undefeated streak on the main roster was ended by R-Truth, which was just a horrendous decision.
Either way, Dallas still has a lot to offer. He’s one of the more naturally funny Superstars on the roster, and he can hold his own in the ring. It’s just a question of if/when Dallas will get to prove himself again.
