10 WWE NXT stars you completely forgot about

Ryan Nemeth is the brother of Nic Nemeth, FKA Dolph Ziggler, and he’d watched his brother go from a caddy to a male cheerleader, to a bloke who introduces himself to people before getting beaten up, to finally achieving a nice level of success as a dependable workhorse. So, perhaps there was a chance for Ryan.
The one-time FCW Tag Team Champion debuted in NXT as an interviewer, before making three televised in-ring appearances (all of them recorded at the same May 2, 2013 television taping).
They were a no contest with Sakamoto when The Ascension’s Connor O’Brian ran in and attacked them both. Then a handicap match loss to O’Brian while teaming with Sakamato. And then a fleeting battle royal appearance that aired after he was released. His release was a surprise to many, as it was noted that he was popular and worked hard, but WWE were about to move everybody into their new Performance Center and wanted to bring in some fresh faces.
