Biggest NXT Burial
Our Winner: Tyler Breeze
For hardcore NXT fans, we all want to see our favorites get their promotion to the WWE main roster and show off what they can do on the bigger stage.
Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes guys can jump right into the main event scene like Finn Balor, Kevin Owens etc. Sometimes, the NXT call-ups find a place in the mid-card area of the WWE. Other times, the NXT stars are completely buried on the main roster.
Breeze made his debut at the end of 2015. He started on the right foot with some good matches against Dean Ambrose and Dolph Ziggler. Starting on January 11th of 2016, Tyler Breeze went on a 20 match (televised) losing streak.
Since than he has been relegated to a comedy/ jobber role with Breezango. He is great in the role and as a lower card guy but if you watched Breeze in NXT, you know that he is capable of more.
We could also give this award to Apollo Crews or the Vaudevillains who have dropped of significantly since being called up.

What happened to Ambrose at WrestleMania was a travesty. He busted his butt to promote that match and got stuck with an opponent that didn’t want to work with him and didn’t want to do anything but the bare minimum. If Ambrose had been working with anyone else but Lesnar, that match would’ve more than lived up to the hype.
That’s because Lesnar sucks!!! I am glad Goldberg beat his a$$ and now they can both disappear and go away and let the wrestlers who want to work go!! Concussing Randy Orton and refusing to work with Dean Ambrose…SMH Lesnar!
Lesnar is the worst kind of part timer, he gets paid no matter what so there’s no incentive for him to put forth any effort or do what the company wants if he doesn’t feel like it. It’s galling to think that Ambrose worked so hard and got nothing out of it. If it had been anyone else, Ambrose would’ve looked like the star he is, instead he was made to look like a loser because his opponent didn’t want to work with him.
