4. Tye Dillinger

What a disappointing main roster run it has been for Tye Dillinger thus far. Since arriving on SmackDown Live, Dillinger has been placed in lower mid-card feuds, and been subject to pre-show matches on pay-per-view. Many fans were excited to see Dillinger’s main roster debut in this year’s Royal Rumble match, and since then, “The Perfect Ten” rarely receives any airtime, let alone a credible feud.

Dillinger’s “TEN” chant is heard at almost every single WWE event, and always receives a great response during his entrances and matches. However, WWE seemingly have no interest in pushing him as a star within the company.

In retrospect, if WWE is so concerned with merchandise sales, then it seems conceivable that a line of “Perfect Ten” clothing could easily fall into their best-sellers if Dillinger is properly pushed. The man is a solid talent and perfect for WWE programming, but it seems they do not share that opinion of him at this time.
