Jay White is less than a year older than BPJ, and I am sure after a year in NXT Beepie will easily exceed Switchblade.

Darby and Sammy are also less than a year older than him but they're clearly not main eventers and will never main event PPVs.

If you expand to "signed wrestlers who did not appear on Wrestledream but have appeared on television recently*":

Jungle Boy, Daniel Garcia, both members of Top Flight, Action Andretti, Bandido, Blake Christian, Komander, Anna Jay, Jamie Hayter, Kiera Hogan, Leyla Hirsch, Riho, Skye Blue, Tay Melo, Toni Storm, and Willow Nightingale.

And Hook, obviously.

Jay White is less than a year older than BPJ, and I am sure after a year in NXT Beepie will easily exceed Switchblade.

* I am including people who were on TV before they got injured and also counting ROH as TV, I understand if either decision is controversial

If we're counting "less than a year", Ospreay is like four months older than Beepie. Surely the PC will get him there.

Brian Pillman Sr. was three years older than Beepie is now when he realized he was too old to be Flyin' Brian anymore and had to reinvent himself completely.

There were a lot of people saying Liger vs Beepie should open the first Dynamite even though it was one of the worst ideas possible.

I mean it's a sweet idea, if not misguided because BPJ stinks. Kind of wish it happened just so we could see Pillman botch something and have Liger mock him like he did with Sasuke.

Was there a weird insistence on BPJ being really good despite all evidence to the contrary talent skips a generation?

To be fair to everyone, BPJ started training to wrestle in early 2017, had his first match anyone might have actually seen (in CZW and BLP) in early 2018, and I guess "showed a lot of potential" for a novice in his various MLW and other promotions I did not watch in 2019.

It's not insane to look at him with a lot of potential in the summer of 2019, and given all of the tragedy in his life I get people wanting to think the best of him. It's just that nothing in the ensuing 3+ years have given a ton of reason to think well of him or his wrestling potential.

I watched a lot of MLW in that period and he did not, under any circumstances, show a lot of potential

He's not that bad at the actual wrestling part. It's hard to look good when your gimmick is guy that sucks and loses on the rare occassion that he gets booked. Not clear if he's capable of more in terms of character/psychology but there's so many talented people out there and so few spots that "solid wrestler" doesn't get you very far on it's own.
