So, we've seen Kalisto, Sasha Banks, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville, and many, many more come from independent wrestling to the stage of NXT. My question to you, who do you predict will jump from the indies to to NXT this year?

For me, I'm guessing Candice LeRae, Adam Cole, ACH, Ricochet, and Trevor Lee.

Trevor probably won't be signed for a couple years at least and rightfully so. He's what, 20? He has plenty of time to hone his skills and whatnot. Candice would be pretty cool to see, she'd have a pretty lengthy career. Just hope she wouldn't be misused like most of the other divas. As for wrestlers that I could see join NXT in 2015, Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet, and maybe Ciampa spring to mind.

I'd love to see Joey Ryan, but that won't happen...I'm guessing Adam Cole or Gargano.

Cole and O'Reilly just signed new full time ROH contracts so them joining is unlikely (at least in 2015).
ACH isn't ready and neither is Trevor.
I'd like to see Candice get signed but WWE seems to prioritizes signing women from other Athletic backgrounds or from modelling.

I'd be shocked if we see any major signings this year after the raids of 13-14. The scene needs to recouperate a bit and the new top names properly establish themselves.

Yeah, I don't think they should really be bringing all this talent who's going to spend little time on development.

Hm. Well, I've seen only one match from the guy, didn't seem too bad.

That's because he isn't bad.

Check out his match against Ricochet at Evolve 35. It was pretty good. Needless to say Ricochet is one of my faves on the independent circuit, but Uhaa's good.
