#2 Hideo Itami
Hideo Itami’s string of injuries since joining NXT has been a disaster, both for the man himself and for fans. Itami first suffered a shoulder injury in 2015, right before NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable. After more than a year out, Itami returned to action around August 2016 but was injured at an NXT house show soon after following a botched powerslam from Riddick Moss.
Itami is back to fitness once again on the cusp of WrestleMania and WWE can’t afford to have him waste any more time in developmental. We need Itami on that main roster as soon as possible. If Itami comes out for this year’s Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, it will be the second ATGMBR of his WWE career and he needs to win it.
