Vikingo is the fastest I ever recognized someone as a future star. He was working a nothing multiman match in AAA years ago before he was a featured act in the promotion. Maybe 20/21 years old. You just knew when you saw him he was an unmistakable kind of special. Took maybe 15 seconds to see it.
Second shortest was Ace Austin. He impressed me when I first saw him in an indy three way before he signed with TNA…but I didn’t learn until after that he had virtually no experience compared to his two opponents who he looked ten times better than and was so much smoother than. Near prodigy level
