I read on a news posting the other day that the WWE is concerned about its main event scene. Recently, they have had some big name injuries such as Triple H, CM Punk and the Undertaker, as well as the departures of HBK and Chris Jericho. Also, Taker, Edge and Triple H will likely be retiring in the next 2-3 years. So what are we look at for the main event scene on each show today? Below is a list of current, active, already established main eventers on each show:
Current RAW Main Eventers:
Current Smackdown! Main Eventers
If you ask me, I say at this point, they should try merging the brands, unifying the world titles after Wrestlemania and just try it out for a year, see if it runs smoothly, and if ratings go up or not.
But assuming that doesn't happen, here is the theme of this thread. Pick 3 superstars (not on above lists) from each brand that the WWE should start/continue pushing into the main event and create huge stars out of IMMEDIATELY. After that, pick 3 more from each brand that should start getting a main event push in a year or two. Here are my picks from the current, active roster:
Immediate RAW Pushes:
Future RAW Pushes:
Immediate Smackdown! Pushes:
Future Smackdown! Pushes:
In my opinion, 5 years from now, Ziggler, Del Rio, Morrison and Bryan could be the core-four of the main event scene, and I would love it. What do you guys think?
Current RAW Main Eventers:
- John Cena
- Randy Orton
- Wade Barrett (safe to say)
- Sheamus
- Triple H (upon returning soon)
Current Smackdown! Main Eventers
- Kane
- Edge
- Jack Swagger
- Rey Mysterio
