Which NXT rookie do you see the most potential in?
Not including Daniel Bryan Danielson, considering there's a lot more to judge him off of than his two showings on NXT. I'm more interested in who, out of the seven true newcomers, you guys see the most potential in (take that however you may).

Wade Barrett for his voice alone. He's like James Earl Jones and Patrick Stewart combined.

Wade Barrett for his style of voice and based on his promo Tuesday, he already has a basis for a WWE character (Dibiase-lite with the dream of making millions of dollars than fans or glory).
Wildcard pick : Sheffield since he has the physique that Vince likes and if he's willing to make the goof-ball strongman work as a character, then it should also be easy to make a Batista-like character possible as a heel (similar to Batista's turn against Rey Mysterio). |

I'd say Barrett too...has the size Vince likes, very workable gimmick that can evolve and grow as he climbs the ladder, has some decent charisma, and seemingly can navigate his way around a ring.

Wade Barret reminds me of a character from "Lock Stock and Two Smokin Barrels" or "Snatch." Some British Guy Ritchie prototype that would fit well in the WWE.
I like that his character doesn't give a damn and just wants to get paid. |

Wade Barret. That's a few English/Scot/Irish wrestlers on the WWE roster. Now we just need a Welshman.

I'd like to see a Wade Barret/Daniel Bryan feud in the next couple of years.
Like one of those Kurt Angle/Chris Benoit type feuds that's always present. |

Barrett definately has the look, but I can see Slater in a long-term mid-card role for many years to come

If there's a way they can get Sheffield to fuse his Dusty Rhodes-like smoothness on the mic with Stan Hansen's mean streak, he could go all they way. That why I went with him.
I also have to say that Wade Barrett is the real deal. His voice reminds me a bit of a British Jesse Ventura. |

I voted Tarver, don't know why I think is 1.9 second gimmick can get him over early and I think he seems to have a good amount of personality to evolve beyond that.

Probably Slater, cause he's related to HBK.

I think that speaks in equal parts to their talent, and the fact that the WWE is doing a damn good job in getting them over and highlighting strengths...credit where credit is due.

Went with Barret based on look and voice alone. He's a good sized guy, and his voice is just epic. Didn't really have a match that allowed me to get a good look at him last night, but so far I like what I see.

1) Daniel Bryan
2) Wade Barrett 3) David Otunga 4) Justin Gabriel 5) Heath Slater 6) Darren Young 7) Skip Sheffield 8) Michael Tarver Based on who can wrestle, talk, and is married to Jennifer Hudson. I also factored in what Pro has what Rookis because it may affect booking (thus Christian's guy is automatically higher than Regal and Carlito's guy). Time will tell if that proves to be true. |

Justin Gabriel will surprise people, I think. He's a high-flyer with good looks and a foreign accent. He's also paired with Matt Hardy, who is really over. He'll be more than a jobber, I'll say that.
Surprised how many people are saying Wade Barrett. I'm not completely sold on the guy yet. Maybe he'll win me over. I think he does need some more "Jason Statham" in his character. But give the man time, I guess. Being paired with Chris Jericho is a good sign for him. |
