I actually like most of the NXT Season 2 guys. Eli Cottonwood and Titus O'Neil were the only ones I didn't think had much to offer -- O'Neil just because he was green. I wouldn't mind it if Cottonwood came up for a match or two against John Morrison, and was used to put over Morrison decisively against a bigger opponent. Or perhaps he could actually do quite well as hired muscle in Nexus? Whatever, he's not my cup of tea.
Percy Watson I would add to the SmackDown! roster as a babyface, continuing his relationship with MVP. After letting him work on his ring skills in front of a larger audience for a couple of months, draft him to RAW where he can be an "entertainment" face there.
Michael McGillicutty I would also use on SmackDown!, but with more room for growth. Have Teddy Long sign him because he was "the winniest competitor in NXT Season 2," and just have him work some great matches and do his thing.
Husky Harris and his brother can get called up and help the tag team division on either brand.
Alex Riley could have a nice home as an antagonist on RAW. Don't give too much to the guy too early, but he is solid enough all-round to survive and do quite well for himself over time.
Lucky Cannon needs a name change. Call him J.P. Cannon, or something (his kayfabe WWE "real name" was Jason Cannon, and the "P" can reference his days as "Johnny Prime"), and have him work as a heel somewhere. I actually liked him so much more as a heel than a face, as he seems much more comfortable. I've heard the guy is a good worker, so let's see.
Titus O'Neil is just too green right now. Maybe he can be something someday, but right now he needs A LOT more time in FCW.
