The guy who beats Lesnar should be "face of the company" material. Neither Cesaro or Rollins is that guy.

As much as I love Ryback, I'm not sure they can successfully salvage him and realistically get him back to that level he was at when he was first getting hot.

Whoever it is, they need to start methodically booking them on an upward climb now and have it happen at WrestleMania.

So if it's not Cesaro, Rollins, or Ryback, then who is that guy?


The WWE wanted it to be Reigns, but he was too green.


Daniel Bryan's career is in serious jeopardy and so he's likely out.


WWE's best bet might be to re-push Randy Orton for the umpteenth time.....as erroneous as that may be. The WWE can play it off as 'after all these years', Orton is finally starting to realize the potential that Triple H initially saw in him.

Orton actually is probably the best option but they should have rolled with it years ago. I think he's too far into his career to be "the future".

There are one or two guys on the lower rung who have the look, the size, the mic skills, the charisma and the in-ring skills to be the face of the company. They're miles away from that level though. They'd have to change their character up, push them out of nowhere and go all in with the push without the start-stop bullshit.

... Of course, I'm referring to Johnny Curtis. The one man WWE has dropped the ball with worse than Ryback.

Every time you mention Johnny Curtis or Ryback, I want to give you a manly embrace and tell you I feel your pain.

Definitely agree. However - I wouldn't want to put the strap on Orton as a way of pegging him as "the future." At this stage in the game, Orton is way too 'saturated' for that. I want Orton to be champ so that he can carry the company afloat while the WWE tries to find their "next John Cena" (whether that comes in the form of a new-and-improved Roman Reigns, Kevin Owens, etc.). My 'vision' is that maybe you have a guy like Orton be the 'top face' for the company in 2016, and then have someone like Reigns, or Owens eventually take top billing in 2017 after Mania'.


As far as guys like Johnny Curtis goes, I hope the WWE learned their lesson (i.e. do NOT bring up NXT talent to the "big leagues" unless you have a clear cut vision of how you are going to push said character. Don't come up with dumb shit! REALLY take the time to think about the character).
