The hottest prospects by far in the system. One is already assigned to Raw, the other will probably sooner than later be on Raw at this rate.
So is this the next pair to take the WWE to the next generation?
Probably more like a Cena/Batista era than Austin/Rock levels of riveries?
Or maybe the best comparison is the Bret Hart/Shawn Michaels era all over again?

One is still green, the other hasn't even started his career yet and we have no idea of the celling for both of them. |

Neither of these guys is ready for it. As bad as WWE has been without a real top Babyface, pushing greenhorns before the audience has accepted them organically ain't it.

Saw someone online refer to Theory, Breakker, and Stevens as WWE’s current “3 Musketeers” to lead on the future. They’re both young but Theory and Breakker are absolute prospects. Stevens?..I don’t care how good he mat-wrestles: Jury’s out on that one for me. He seems good though minus all the drama he dismissed.

They're the next generation who will help hold up this company. Carmelo Hayes when he's called up will be the 4th.

Steveson's still in school, isn't he? No matter how much buzz the kid has, he's got to at least show up to wrestling school and learn what he's doing before he can be called an era-defining talent.

For the last couple decades I’ve seen a pattern with the next generation of stars. Cena, Batista, And Rollins all debuted in a year that ended in 2, and won their first world titles at a year that ended in 5 (at that wrestlemania) while the year before that a technical wrestler(s) won the world title in a underdog fashion in a triple threat main event. Bron and Steveson are already debuting in a year that ends with 2

Gable Steveson being born with the most incredible Performance Center Random Name Generator-sounding name makes me hope they inexplicably and counterintuitively rename him "Steve Gable" when he debuts in NXT.

Honestly, I think if anybody needed a name change, it's "Gable Steveson." Kind of a clunky name. |

Honestly, it feels more like the half-decade where Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Cody Rhodes and a few other guys in their mid-30s pick up a few title runs and really carry the company for a bit. A lot of other legends are aging out.

He's pretty much done with school and reportedly has been training outside of his amateur training time. |

Stevenson, Theory, and Breakker are up next and I think Carmelo is going to be the guy who gets super over but has to fight in the Daniel Bryan mode to get over.
Also eventually WWE is going to sign Wardlow imo. He fits what WWE wants as well.
I think Stevenson will be their Kurt Angle/Brock, Breakker will be the Roman/Cena, Theory im not sure yet, Hayes will be their urban Daniel Bryan, and Wardlow will be their Batista.

I really hope they take their time a bit and don’t rush them.
Like if Breakker got the classic rise up the card and was pushed as an asskicker with no extra frills or character garbage he could be really special.
Steveson doing cartwheels when he’s a brick shithouse of a man scares the hell out of me.
