#6 Authors of Pain

Drake Maverick has joined forces with the A.O.P.

Akam and Rezar are two of the most impressive big guys to come along in quite some time. What makes them even more unique, is the fact that they have practically no experience whatsoever, when it comes to professional wrestling. However, it is worth mentioning that both men have extensive combat backgrounds, which has proved to give them an advantage that most newcomers would not have.

During their initial run in NXT, The Authors of Pain appeared to have learned the "WWE way" fairly quickly. With legendary Hall of Fame manager Paul Ellering in their corner, The A.O.P. was able to cruise all the way to the top of the NXT Tag Team Division, where they captured the NXT Tag Team Titles at NXT Takeover: San Antonio.

Once they arrived on the main roster, the expectations were high, especially with Ellerings main event experience. However, Ellering would soon be taken away from the picture and The Authors of Pain were then left without their mentor. Now it appears a new face has taken on that responsibility and his name is Drake Maverick. Maverick began his WWE career as the GM of 205 Live but has now added to his responsibilities as he now serves as the mouthpiece for The Authors of Pain. It's a strange alliance at first glance, but if we give it time, it may just work out perfectly.
