I'm naming full-timers only, so no Hunter or Brock.

Brawler

Rusev, or maybe Ambrose. I like how they combine technique into their brawling instead of keeping them separate. Sheamus too, I guess.

In-ring heel tactics

Has to be Rollins, will probably be unquestioned until Lesnar returns.

Hardcore wrestler

Ambrose would kick ass at this if it came back.

High flyer

Really? Anyone's contesting this category anymore since Neville premiered?

Powerhouse

Has to be Cesaro for being the real secret identity of "superman" based on his feats. Rusev in 2nd for his ridiculous versatility and execution for such a big guy with such powerful moves.

Showman

Bray and Ambrose. Insane psychology and unpredictability, plus integrating their characters into not only the matches, but their movesets as well.

Submission artist

Do they still have anyone who specializes in submissions?

Technician

Bryan's gone, right? I guess Cesaro or Cody. Natalya gets props.

Brawler
Is there actually anybody nowadays who could fill this category? WWE waters down their 'brawlers' so much nowadays. Maybe Sheamus. Reigns has shown his worth. Bray as well.

In-ring heel tactics
Seth Rollins. Nobody comes close. He's the champ after all.

Hardcore wrestler
Ambrose. Really inventive as well.

High flyer
Neville. Duh.

Powerhouse
Cesaro. Inhuman amounts of power this guy possesses.

Showman
Bray. The guy is a natural. Untouchable.

Submission artist
I honestly cannot answer this because I can't think of anybody. Daniel Bryan I guess if he still counts. If not then Rusev cos of his finisher.

Technician
Again I am stretched but again I will say Cesaro. He's a powerhouse and a technician. Pity about his charisma...

Powerhouse - Brock Lesnar

I am not the best at this so: (I don't think many of these actually exist in WWE)


Brawler-King Barrett. I thought Sheamus, but basically anyone from U.K. is up for a good brawl. I just feel Barrett is higher up on food chain so him of Captain "you look ugly".

In-ring heel tactics-I guess Rollins, Bray has had terrible PPV's this year.

Hardcore wrestler-Kane probably, but Ambrose at Wrestlemania was the last hardcore thing I remember. (I seriously thought Ambrose was gonna Curb Stomp Rollins into those bricks, kudos)

High flyer-Neville, the one and only

Powerhouse-Cesaro all the way, does anyone remember 1st annual Andre Giant contest, I was a believer since.

Showman-Ryback, dude has head liner in his future.

Submission artist-Rusev, too bad he can't learn more than Iron Shiek's move.

Technician-Cesaro, Swiss Superman good enough for more than 1 spot. Cause quite honestly I would pick a woman if no other choice.

Brawler - Sheamus

In ring heel tatics - Does he have to be heel right now? because if not it's for sure Randy Orton.

Hardcore wrestler - Dean Ambrose

High Flyer - Neville and it's not even close.

Powerhouse - Cesaro since no Lesnar

Showman - Sasha Banks

Submission - Becky Lynch

Technician - Cesaro
 
#10 ·
Brawler Luke Harper
In-ring heel tactics New Day or Sheamus
Hardcore wrestler Can't speak on this, hardcore doesn't exist in WWE anymore much to my dismay and I haven't paid attention to other promotions.
High flyer Kalisto...yeah, that's right, I said it
Powerhouse Legitimately, Brock, Big E, Ryback in that order.
Showman Bray Wyatt
Submission artist Orton? Hell if I know, submission moves are only used for those tension building spots anymore...
Technician Brock Lesnar
 
#11 ·
Brawler - Sheamus or Barrett (Would say Ambrose but they've got him looking absolutely ridiculous when he punches)

In-ring heel tactics - Rollins

Hardcore wrestler - Ambrose (Too bad he can't go Jon Moxley on WWE)

High flyer - Neville, before him Rollins

Powerhouse - Pound for pound absolutely Cesaro

Showman - Cena, it's what he does

Submission artist - I guess Rusev since that's his finisher

Technician - Bryan, absent him it would have to be Rollins or Ziggler

Brawler: Too many people are tied for this.

In ring heel tactics: Do Cena's wins by burial count?

Hardcore wrestler: Nobody.

High flyer: Neville.

Powerhouse: Lesnar. Everyone else above 250 lbs can fight for the No.2 spot.

Showman: Ambrose & Wyatt are kings of the mic.

Submission artist: Orton & Cena. Nobody else really does it anymore.

Technician: Cesaro.

Has Orton ever done a submission move in his life other than restholds? :Jordan

Cena? Submission artist? A guy who can't even perform the STF correctly? :maury

Do you people even know whats a submission artist? I swear, go watch some Benoit/Angle or Bryan/Punk matches.

Hardcore wrestler: Luke Harper

High flyer: Neville

Powerhouse: Brock Lesnar

Showman: Brock Lesnar

Submission artist: Daniel Bryan

Technician: Daniel Bryan
 
#14 ·
Brawler - Lesnar

In-ring heel tactics - Rusev

Hardcore wrestler - Ambrose

High flyer - Neville hands down.

Powerhouse - Cesaro when compared to other heavier wrestlers he still manages to handle them with ease.

Showman - Orton

Submission artist - Bryan

Technician - Rollins (though Kidd is wasted talent)

Brawler: Luke Harper. Dude works stiff and I like it.

In ring heel tactics: Kevin Owens, not even close, I'm tired of the overbooking in Seth's matches

Hardcore Wrestler: Ambrose, he's crazy.

High Flyer: Neville, I might say he's better than Mysterio.

Powerhouse: Bork Lazer. Full timers Cesaro or Ryback

Showman: Bray Wyatt

Submission Artist: Becky Lynch or Sasha Banks, right now not close

Technician: I guess this is about who applies the moves better. If it is then tie between Cesaro and Neville
 
#17 ·
Brawler: Dean Ambrose
In ring-hell tactics: Seth Rollins
Hardcore: Ambrose or Luke Harper
High Flyer: Kofi Kingston, nobody has consistently pulled the stunts he has. Neville is looking great though
Powerhouse: Brock Lesnar. Full Time, Rusev.
Showman: Damien Sandow and Bray Wyatt are the only legit answers. Wyatt shades it for having a more defined character.
Submission artist: John Cena right, only guy booked with a powerful submission move. For range of moves, Daniel Bryan?
Technician: Cesaro

Note, NXT isn't the WWE roster. When someone appears on Raw with NXT on the LED boards, they're still on the NXT roster.

Brawler
Sheamus, easily.

In-ring heel tactics
Rollins, although it's not really in-ring. In-ring heel stuff only exists in tag matches these days. There are no rules to break to be a heel.

Hardcore wrestler
Ambrose, purely because he's been in the most 'hardcore' matches of late.

High flyer
Neville/Kalisto

Powerhouse
Rusev

Showman
They're all Showmen/women no? I think constantly throwing people around is being a showman. So, Lesnar.

Submission artist*
Kinda irrelevant. No one actually works on a body part to then apply a submission barring maybe Rusev.

Technician*
Tyson Kidd

*since Bryan isn't currently active.
