Gran metallik is just so fucking smooth, I like him. I also think it's smart to focus on a masked Lucha star for the cruiser division. I figured that would go to Kallisto but he may be too WWEized.
Ibushi has been great in each match and I think his style will get over instantly. He also brings such an easy built in gimmick of being the Japanese kick master. I see him getting over easy with casual fans.
I haven't dug Perkins, I don't know why, I do like his submissions and how he transitions into them. And he has a gimmick more so than a lot of guys just being "a guy with cool moves" but he hasn't done much for me yet. I think he will grow on me.
Gargano won me over. I love him as Johnny Wrestling the hard working Indy guy that made it big, tough as nails and ready to fight. Ciampa to a lesser degree.
Tozawa could be the top cruiser heel no doubt, great charisma. Just being the wwe I think it will be hard to keep two Japanese guys over but if Ibushi isn't full time Tozawa could be and be the top heel.
Jack Gallagher was good but I don't know if his style will ran slate to the casual fan.
Cedric Alexander and rich swan are stars.
