Predictions of major stars emerging in WWE for 2024.

Transcripts

hello there my very good friends this

late 2023 2024 is in like 9 days or

something days there you go uh what

we're going to do today is have a little

look ahead at some WWE wrestlers that we

think are going to break out in 2024

take their games to the next level some

of these people are already pretty

popular some of them are already pretty

great but we think next year they're

going to go all the way to the Moon

let's do this yeah let's kick this one

off by talking about a pretty obvious

one but a really good one number 10

Krick Williams yes he has uh popped off

the screen from the moment leapt off the

screen is the term uh from the moment he

first showed up on NXT 2.0 in in 2021 um

Carmelo Hayes obviously is fantastic as

well great wrestler and as a double act

um they've complimented each other quite

wonderfully because Hayes obviously the

more experienced the more refined

between the ropes but trick Williams is

charisma is just completely insane and

uh you know 2023 has certainly brought

sign

of beginning to break out he had the the

really short run with the North American

belt uh and obviously the whole angle

with him and carelo uh which has been I

mean two years in the making really so

it maybe he ends up on the main roster

uh this this coming year even if he

doesn't I think that he's going to be a

major major player in NXT big things in

that man's future because he's got

things you cannot teach yeah we always

expected big things from kohes I think

my concern with trick Williams is when

they did eventually split cuz it's

always going to happen his WWE whether

or not he was going to have enough to

carry him on obviously he's got that

Charisma I mean he made entrances

amazing for Carmela haes as part of all

that but yeah by God he's really broken

out on his own and just look at that

reaction when he wins the North American

Title and prior to that when he comes

out I mean yeah he's going to be a star

next year really excited to see what

comes from him as well as Lola Vice are

number nine on this list uh the NXT

Women's breakout tournament winner um

lot of Hypes around it going I think is

more than deserved um she's following

the footsteps we're in the breakout

Tournament of the likes of Carmelo Hayes

and rock s Perez no pressure then um but

boy can she handle it I think it's it's

a real um shiny example of the nil next

in line thing that WWE have adapt

adopted even with bringing in athletes

and making them become wrestlers CU I

think she's she's obviously got this MMA

background and sometimes when they go

she's got an MMA background and then

they try and bring that into their

wrestling it doesn't really work but um

the dad Le I was chatting to before I

came in here huge fans of hers uh I

think she's got excellent grappling

ability obviously you know the strikes

going to look great with the MMA gra

background but the grappling side of

things she's just really taken to uh I

wouldn't be surprised if she wins uh a

world title in NXT or is already taken

up the main roster in 2024 very very

quick adaptation and uh MMA continues to

be a good base for for people coming

into it look sometimes it goes wrong

some sometimes it does not translate at

all um but but in quite a lot of cases

it really does and she's obviously the

latest example of that she's been on TV

for like five minutes and it already

feels like she she's right at home so I

don't really know how anyone could look

at her and not say straight away she's

going to be a big star exactly speaking

of which same division in everything a

little higher up it number eight Tiffany

Stratton Tiffany Straton and again this

one's a little bit obvious but it's that

doesn't make it any less valid you know

Tiffany's going to be huge um obviously

she's been positioned as one of the

center pieces of the NXT Women's

Division and you can see why uh she is

probably is this a first statement

probably the most advanced of the next

in line signings so far um if anyone has

a better example let us know in the

comment section below but she's taking

this like this like a duck to water man

she's she's flown straight in um just

like a duck I guess she's quacked up the

rankings and she won the belt and held

it for a long time but no she she's a

natural she's natural TV star um so many

aspects of her performance are way ahead

of her experience level uh great match

with Becky oh Sensational best of her

career so far the plunder fight um on

the premium live event do we classify

them as that for NXT yeah technically I

think it happened on a weekend so we'll

allow it yeah that's the definition is

on the weekend then it's premium but

yeah Tiffany's going to be a main roster

Mega star I wouldn't be surprised if she

had one of the big belts by the end of

the year my one of my favorite finishes

in wrestling the prettiest moon salt

ever I think you know there were

concerns when she initially broke onto

the scene in NXT that it was going to be

a kind of onedimensional Daddy's girl

gimmick but it's expanded far beyond

that she showcased her phen phenomenal

in ring abilities like you say a long

reign with the world title I'd get her

on the main roster tomorrow if it was me

and yeah I think just a real showcase

against Becky Lynch I mean Becky Lynch

could make me look good but that was

really Next Level stuff for uh for

Tiffany Stratton and a a sign of things

to come on the main roster I hope

right let's talk about someone else who

I hope moves up to the main roster soon

whoa where's my mustache gone hi there

future Andy and future Wilborn here uh

cutting in because since we've recorded

this video unfortunately we originally

had Wesley here at number seven and it

now looks like he's going to be injured

for a very long time unfortunately eight

to 10 months I believe get well soon

Wesley so in his place number seven his

brother Dragon Lee go you can never have

too many Lees indeed look u dragon Lee

has been been Sensational down in NXT

for quite some time now and they've

obviously slowly transitioned him up to

the main roster yes he lost to Santos

Escobar um at Survivor Series but that

doesn't seem to have stopped his

momentum uh he's had some absolute

rippers on the main roster working liks

of Cedric Alexander and axiim I believe

and I just think you know he's been

given the endorsement of Rey Mysterio I

think they clearly do have big plans for

him in 2024 and the crowds are really

warming up to him as well like they've

they've done a good job of just

presenting him as weekly guy who has

great matches every single week in his

spot um yeah I think Dragon Lee is the

truth as far as like wrestling goes he's

one of the best in the company and uh if

they find the right Stories the right

direction for him he's going to pop

through the roof yeah he's someone you

are just desperate to see in a live

setting isn't he man like and I've never

seen him life but I sure would enjoy

that and yeah look for him to do big

things in 2024 and again get well Wesley

yeah get well Wesley best luck to Dragon

Lee and lots of love for their other

brother brocco back to the list

the Creed brothers are at number six

there you go that's how you you save

that get back on track Andy we are

moving up to the main roster for the

first time on the video they uh the time

recording kind of just arrived there yep

and they've been kicking ass this is

another act that from the moment they

arrived in NXT 2.0 they looked A Cut

Above like a real Cut Above um that

first match they had where they were

slapping each other in the face just the

purest meat head energy that that I've

seen in WWE for a long long time and

they've both really grown as well uh I

love Brutus he's a little meatball of a

man just using his body as a projectile

in every single way possible shatter his

ankles doing that Brutus Ball but ankles

are made of titanium or something uh and

Judas I think people are are on the

money when they they pinpoint him as a

future single star that being said I

would not split them for a very long

time if Judas is going to become a

single star Jud Judas I I call him Judas

like five times who am I thinking of I

don't know Judas he that's when he turns

on Brutus you bloody Judas Judas Creed

do you know what normal circumstances I

would restart this I don't care no Jud I

really like both of these guys um yeah

Julius has been air marked by S for a

long time I we did a draft like half a

half a year ago and he was already

saying if I was going to draw pick my

own roster I'd pick him but like you say

I wouldn't split them apart I'd put tag

team gold on them maybe even at

WrestleMania I think they are that good

um and I think it's one of those yeah

they had that really impactful debut on

NXT they were awesome down there can

they transition to the main roster they

did it the first match they had you were

a huge fan of theirs when you when you

saw that against who did they face oh

Alfred Academy since day one Judas has

been in my

mind let's move on to number five and

that's

BR his name is Brian um he got being up

by taker so there you go that's a a real

sign of yeah no he's been brilliant he's

someone who probably was on our list in

2022 for 2023 in terms of moving up I

think a lot of people assumed he was

going to head there in the early stages

of 2023 what actually happened is he was

kept down on NXT and you thought oh he

dropped the title now what they going to

do with him they turned him heel and it

was incredible like he was you know he's

you know Diner blood he's got all that

mad energy he has the best spear in

wrestling I agree he cuts people in half

with it you don't really need to do a

lot when he moves up to the main roster

for that just it doesn't even have to be

like a Colin Delaney style sorry Colin

Colin Delaney style figure he cuts in

half it can be big guys as well he

wrecks dudes with that spear he works

clearly has worked as a baby face for

years on NXT and then this run as a heel

um just I think showcase it Vindicated

WWE's decision to keep him down in NXT

to to have him do this run but yeah next

year get him up there on the main roster

and have him cut dudes in off yeah

absolutely and they got the Paul heon

connection you can absolutely exploit

now as well I think he's improved a lot

in 2023 now that he sucked he was

clearly very good from day one but he's

he's refined his actell of a lot it

speaks volumes that we're getting

questions on the news about him working

Brock WrestleMania my God that would be

delicious he could be Brock's successor

yeah you know like it's a bit of a

different style you know Brock is

obviously cultivated this special

attraction Aura over the years uh but

you know you can't really do that when

you're like 24 or whatever bro breaker

is and that takes time so yeah the

future is very bright indeed I would

have him debut by spearing someone

through the woman wall like yeah

remember when uh Big Bob and Brun did

that on the episode of uh raw and Cory

grav said holy sh yeah like oh my

goodness that was sick do that just do

that again hell yeah why not I don't

know who it would be I'm not going to

say that's cruel yeah it's mean let know

who you'd like it to be in the comments

how about number four Chad Gable oh

please know speaking of people who've

been on this right BR Chad Gable we do

this list every year at least on the

website not always on YouTube I think

Chad Gable has probably been on it about

seven times but it might actually happen

now yeah he's not sh or any of that

bollocks yeah so very very good 2023

obviously Alpha Academy is uh fun act

it's always been a fun act um they've

added Maxine who's been great they've

added Akira tazawa who wears t-shirts

who are too big for him and and they've

expanded their group and they remain

like a fun fixture the shush is over and

all of that but more than anything else

uh the past couple of years they've just

let him wrestle really well and that's

nice to see he has a long list of like

little like seven eight minute bangers

like little condensed really great TV

matches but he's really been able to

spread his wings and show you what he

can do or remind you what he can do cuz

we always knew he was great uh in the

gumur series um so if they take that

thread and they expand on it and knit a

nice little jumper with the thread um

they will craft a lovely tapestry of pro

wrestling that will Elevate Chad Gable

out of the the discount rack and into

hars do you like that I like that a lot

it feels weird to have him on this

breakout list with like NXT stars but

you're right he's been bubbling under

under the surface he we've all known

that he could have done it 5 years ago

for example but it now feels like

everything's aligning for WWE to get

behind him to push him the crowd

reactions there he just he does stuff

that makes my jaw drop in the ring and

yeah I I smell gold in his future can

you smell gold I don't know yeah no I

tell who else might be getting gold in

uh in 2024 Zoe Stark who's on number

three I think she had a a brilliant year

of course uh a really clever decision to

align her with Trish Stratus and then

eventually have a you know go over her

or or at least use her as a springboard

to to greater things uh she had so much

potential down in NXT another one of

those people who kind of backs up all

her other entries of it's all right now

stepping up from NXT to the main roster

um I saw her compared uh as WWE's

version of Jamie hater and I think

that's a really good comparison I think

that's something she could easily

execute in 2024 yeah championships are

coming for her um and she's just she's

just great I think they was it the

rumble this year she iory does work I

think her and roam were in the 2023

Rumble if if I'm right and thinking that

and I think that's a real seal of

approval or oh best of luck good luck

Zoe Stark I've been a big fan of from

day one um what you I po myself with the

SE all right speaking of uh I don't know

people who make noises chase you number

two chase you I flipping love this table

chase you number two look it's my end R

I'm going to let you do most of the

talking because uh because of this

reaction uh very expressive human beings

very expressive human beings especially

be a h um do it man chase you are and

you know my love for Tony D and the

family and stacks and what have you

chase you are still up there as one of

the best stables in NXT because they're

just this rag tag group of people who

you think sorry you're going to give

them a university gimmick but by God

they made it work di hail protect her at

all costs one of the purest baby faces

in

the she's awesome and I can't wait to

see what she does next Juke bloody

Hudson he's had about 20 gimmicks right

he was for a bit Yeah he was he has

and this is Michael sidwick approved

one of the best hot tags in the industry

he fires up like nobody's business and

then we get to the dawn of Chase you

Andre Chase his skits pop me every

single time he's got the chase you

section of the audience that definitely

become a thing if they put that on the

main roster I don't know what they would

do with them in in the future on the

main roster or in NXT but if you're not

watching NXT you should just for Chase

you they are great there you go and tell

you what else you should be watching an

xt4 our number one entry Von Wagner now

this for people who listen to the

podcast what Co dressing wherever you

get your podcast from this is a unhinged

it's someone incredibly close to our

heart because Von Wagner was how can I

put this he was bad an interesting

character doing a couple of 12 O curls

with kylo Riley in the dark days of NXT

in some people's eyes at least the fact

that they have transformed him into a

beloved character a sympathetic monster

utilizing real life stuff that happened

to him I should point out um is

Vindication of HBK being Booker of the

year right I love me some Von Wagner

like people bought into the whole Bron

breaker killing him on NXT until they

went oh no he's another angle he's

absolutely fine

that got a lot of coverage um his

pairing with Robert Stone is

majestic he has managed to get the

phrase getting tabled over as a

thing Von Wagner is your want to watch

in

2024 all the best for him all the best

for everyone on this list watch out cuz

there com to be major stars coming your

way next year he's also very large and

he's a second generation guy as well

give him the Beverly Brothers them for

Christ sake WWE just do it so he's got a

couple just do it he's got a couple of

old Vince chestnuts going from there as

well quite the transformation because in

the early days of NXT he looked rubbish

like he looked completely lost in know

of his death he looked their like their

classic you're 7 foot tall you can't

really work but you're 7 foot tall so go

and hang out with Kyle O'Reilly in a

forest um but like the joy of watching

young wrestlers is watching them start

kind of bad and then get kind of good

like that's that's part of the fun of

this whole thing is following people on

their journey and I don't think many

people exemplify that quite as well as

uh big big vau Wagner I love him so much

did we miss anyone out let us know in

the comments but uh yeah very exciting

times for WWE in 2024 happy Christmas

bye bye
