Who is the next transcendent WWE star ala Bruno/Hogan/Austin/Rock/Cena?

[Apex]

WWE has tried to make it Reigns, but when it comes to being the face of the company, it comes naturally. You can never force it.

Who will it be?

Hard to tell, no one has IT. It I had to choose someone it's a wild card tj Perkins or rich swann

 

[mr heyzel]

It should be Bray but they have booked him horribly

Seems like WWE doesn't want to make those type of stars anymore tbh. Maybe that'll change when HHH is fully running the company.

Even if you don't want to make that type of star, they get made organically. Plus, business is always better when there's the guy.

Might be Reigns, they chanted Rocky Sucks before he broke out as a star.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

No one

 

[Konnan]

I still have faith in Bo Dallas

I think they dont want people to continue to become bigger than their brand. I agree with you. They have less leverage when they want to leave.


Its Roman and Rollins doe. That shyt is Cena/Randy all over again.

3 years into his WWF career, Rock was headed towards being the biggest face on the roster, and one of the most popular guys in wrestling in general. 3 years into his WWE career, Roman Reigns is unintentionally the biggest heel on the roster that they continue to masquerade as a face. Reigns is nowhere close to being a transcending star.

Rollins is the only one I can think of right now.

Not everybody's rise is exactly the same time like wise, but I think Reigns maybe has the opportunity, may have been further along had it not been for failing the drug test. I think he's got the personality, look, intensity, in ring ability to possibly be a big star, it may take a heel turn then organically for the fans to start fukking with him again then eventually turn face, ultimately it may end up being decided by the booking, I wouldn't rule Reigns out yet though, I do think he has star quality.

He has the personality? Huh?

I think Reigns has the look and can wrestle pretty well, but I don't see the personality at all. I know he's had some garbage written for him, but we're almost 5 years into his career and we still don't know exactly what Reigns personality is. He just seems like "some dude" and that's it. The best gimmicks are usually just the exaggerated version of yourself, so...who is Reigns?
