Your 9 WWE NXT Rooks

Kaval and BryanNine names have been reported as being part of the first season of WWE NXT. Unsurprisingly, the two biggest ones are Kaval (Low Ki) and Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson). Also on the list are third-generation wrestlers Joe Hennig (son of Mr. Perfect and grandson of Larry "The Axe" Hennig) and Brett DiBiase (duh). Also on the list are Justin Angel, Skip Sheffield, Michael Tarver, Darren Young and Heath Slater. I've heard of Angel and Slater before, but I haven't seen much of anything from them.

I already know what Danielson and Ki can bring to the table. I'm more nervous about the other guys, especially the ones who aren't legacy wrestlers. NXT will be a test of the WWE's scouting process to see if they can score future talents who aren't either in the family business or who aren't indie darlings. Hopefully, they get paired with good talented veterans. Especially Finlay. This show was made for a guy like Finlay to be a mentor.
