Seth Rollins, Big E, Bo Dallas, Damien Sandow, Hunico, and Leo Kruger. This was apparently the planned group for Season 5, but Redemption happened instead. Definitely an intriguing group. Though part of me is glad that Seth's first impact on WWE television wasn't through the terrible NXT challenges.

Sandow was fat, and it's hard to believe bean-pole skinny Adam Rose is the same guy as Leo Krueger.

Whoa....never realized there was supposed to be another season. Presumably after that whole Redemption mess? Glad it did't happen though. The NXT challenges were not just dumb but also unreasonable. Even if you took an all-time great like The Rock and immediately told him to cut a promo about drapes with no advance warning there's a good chance that he would blunder it. NXT was nothing more than a more PC-friendly hazing contest.

Woah. Guess this would had been the FCW All Stars season. Weird that they were planning another actual lineup when Syfy cancelled the show during Season 3.

Might be the best overall cast. Season one had Tarver as a weak link, while season two and four had a bunch of duds. Still wouldn't have been more fun than season three though.

One of my biggest sadnesses of the near-recent past is Tarver being awful. Dude had an amazing look, even made better when he wore the creeper mask. Such a shame.

I had never heard of this being a thing, nor seen this picture before somehow.
I did hear the rumors that Seth was supposed to be on NXT Season 4 with Michael Cole as his pro though.

Even in this picture Hunico looks like he's making weird noises that annoy everyone

It's amazing that they all 'made it', at least on to the main roster, and were all successful in some amount.

Man...that's such a surreal image/thought and quite possibly (as one redditor pointed out) some alternate universe kind of stuff.
This season not going forward pretty much changed WWE's future forever.
Gameshow NXT. Changed WWE's landscape. Who'dathunkit?

Tarver had more going for him than Heath Slater and Skip "Ryback" Sheffield at that period and Darren Young and David Otunga in general.

Imagine how different today's WWE would be if this had taken place....and Bo Dallas.

Is Hunico's cape made out of the exact same fabric swatch as Seth's tights?
