The alternative-looking guys with artistic background. Much more likeable than clean-cut bland guys like Riley.

Re: Corey Graves
I prefer to see Corey Graves over Bo Dallas. Graves has a unique look that is far from generic, has decent mic and in ring skills. He should get better over time. Bo Dallas on the other hand is a pretty average wrestler. His in ring skills aren't bad, but there's nothing significant, memorable, or spectacular about his in-ring skills. His mic skills are also very average, and it would be hard to take Bo Dallas seriously as a heel. He seems like a guy that can only remain a face for the rest of his career. Graves however, look slike he can both play as a face or a heel well.

Re: Corey Graves
Hate his attire, don't care if it makes his look "unique", still think it sucks.

Re: Corey Graves
First, and foremost the man can wrestle. He is a solid mat technician, and it's something he doesn't get credit for. He has been kept down in NXT because this is the largest amount of public exposure he has ever had. Sterling James Keenan was his independent name, and he is a native of the Pittsburgh area. HHH, Dusty Rhodes, and many other notable WWE names have all taken a liking to this young man. His motto "Stay Down" is a great line, and I think it will be something he takes with him to the main roster. I honestly think he could a popular "face" with some attitude about him that makes him not so watered down. He doesn't come across as the "nice guy" type. I think he is ready for the main roster now. However they probably will want to test the waters with him first. He indeed is a future star.

Re: Corey Graves
Personally I think he will be a big star. He could use a little more work in developmental, he's still young. He's got a cool style, and he's doing something different than everyone.

Re: Corey Graves
I like Corey Graves. I didn't at first because I thought he was just another one of those "reject" gimmicks.
But I have to say, I am impressed with what I have seen from him. If it were up to me, either Graves or Leo Kruger would have one that Royal Rumble spot. I much perfer Graves over Bo Dallas.
Dallas is decent, but I still don't think he's all that great. I'm still looking for him to do something that really impresses me.

I agree. I hate seing people wrestling in jeans or other street gear. It just looks so Busch league to me. We currently have a couple guys doing that.
Bray Wyatt
Camacho
Huinco
Leo kruger
Corey Graves
To each his own though

I think it depends, don't get why Leo Kreuger is doing it, but for guys like Bray and Graves it goes with character. I'm sorry if your building someone up as a preacher or punk, you want them to look like they could do some damage, I'd rather them work in their respective attire then in spandex, dont tell me this guy will kick your ass and he comes out in a speedo.
