Adrian Neville/PAC - Future World Champion???????

Just wondering if anyone else out there thinks Adrian Neville/Pac will become a world champion in wwe.

His move set is unrivaled in wwe and I for one would love to see him debut in the upper midcard put on some showstoppers with bryan and punk.

Lets open it up to opinions

No

Some very insightful opinion in this thread...I have to say I haven't really watched NXT before but I checked out Adrian Neville and he seems stupidly talented.

Nah I don't think he'll be a World Champion, Tag or IC level yes but a lot of things will have to change before I could see him becoming the man with the top belt, he's barely understandable which for me will be the big killer

PAC is an absolutely phenomenal talent, I don't think that many could argue with that statement, the issue will always be though that the vast majority of American fans will need subtitles to understand a word he says.

I literally know nothing about this guy, but he seems to get major plaudits on this site and a few others, so I gather he has talent.

I always mean to start watching NXT but have not got around to it yet.

Is he the dude who does that sick shooting star press?

Here's a vid from a few years ago JJ when he face AJ Styles in the UK:

Neville is a phenomeon, I truly belive we are entering a golden age of high flyers, men combining the 'can you top this' high flying moves of late 90's early-mid 00's with some genuine grappling to peice the whole thing together.

Neville is probably at the fore front of this (along with Ricochet and Ibushi) and has evolved from pure spot-monkey (all be it a brilliant one) to a very well rounded wrestler, his time in Japan helped him a lot in that respect.

Sadly though I don't see him ever being world champion, while he's deceptivly built he's hardly a big guy, he dosn't appear to be bursting with charisma and it's worth noting WWE's list of champions from outside North America is very very small, could anyone really see Pac being the first ever English Champ?

Thats 6-7 years old now, which was billed as PAC's proving ground match which eventually led to him getting bookings in japan with dragon gate

heres a more recent match with him taking on Ricochet

That's probably my favorite PAC match, either that or his one with Devitt from BOTSJ, I'll put that up if anyone fancies it

Cheers to Hero and Amy for those vids

That Aj Styles match is quality but the Pac vs Ricochet bout, seriously WTF?

That is insane and absolutely immense. Can't believe I never knew who this guy was.

Tidy little match that one house
he also has a decent little match with liger in that same tournament too.
some of my favourite matches of PAC's come from the king of europe cup event
Pac vs Trent Acid- https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgon0y_pac-vs-trent-acid_sport
Pac vs Mcguinness- https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xiq05f_nigel-mcguinness-vs-pac_sport

the full tournament is here if anyone is interested and not seen it yet- https://www.606v2.com/t7724-king-of-europe-cup?highlight=king+of+europe+cup

If he wears facepaint then he'll be Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the Universe


Without the facepaint, I can't see him rising above upper mid-card level. He's got the in-ring tools to main event but it'll be tough for the American audience to get behind him unless he gets himself a mouthpiece.

Give him a mouthpeice and he will be, if mysterio can be World Heavyweight champion why not?

His finisher is unique and some of the stuff he can do is out of this world,

IMO guys with this build are the future ala punk bryan neither big guys but got all the skills in the world.

Adrian Neville when its all done will go down as one of the greatest to come from these shores if not the greatest

High praise indeed, I'd not use Rey Mysterio as a comparison to be fair, there's more to Rey's Title reigns than simple ability

If we are being realistic reys reigns were down the the tragic death of Eddie and the fact he shifts a ton of merch.

not knocking reys abilities but he shouldnt have got to that level

Exactly, that's my point, they where for more reasons than just his ability
