Possible feuds for Big E Langston after face turn

Big E Langston

After making a dream debut by attacking John Cena, Big E Langston became hot property in WWE. As a third wheel to AJ Lee and Dolph Ziggler‘s love fest, Big E made a lot of impact with his intimidating size. After AJ turned on Ziggler, Big E proved to be more than a thorn in the flesh for Ziggler who found it really difficult to handle the large wrestler.

However, after being separated from AJ, Big E has remained quiet for a while now and we haven’t heard much of him. But recent rumors and news suggest that WWE is planning to turn Langston face which comes as a much needed change for the big man.

For long, several fans were waiting for this turn to happen as it was very imminent that Big E had a strong future as a singles competitor. The fact that he was the NXT Champion before being drafted to the main roster is reason enough to justify his ability as a singles competitor. Plus, fans who follow Big E on twitter and have watched his work in NXT have seen that Big E apart from his brute strength has something else that is required to make an impressive wrestling character; which is appeal and a great sense of humor.

For any wrestler to be a fan favorite face, proper sense of humor can always be an added benefit. Though his voice might sound a bit too strange for a person as big as him, fans can get used to listening to him.

Now that there is a possibility of this face turn happening soon let us try and look into the possible wrestlers Big E could compete against.

1. Ryback

This choice comes straight from the rumors which claimed that Big E would be pitched against the bully Ryback. Big Hungry after a long losing streak in PPVs finally managed to step out of the top draw. Ryback at the moment is under damage control mode where he is being repackaged as a bully. From the looks of things, the character is working well for Ryback who now needs to work a little more to establish himself as an unstoppable bully.

Once this is done, WWE can introduce Langston into the picture with slight modifications to his character. Of all the things that need to be changed, WWE must make sure that Big E is given a better attire as his present tights is prone to wardrobe malfunction.

2. Wade Barrett

One has to be realistic when looking for good opponents for a wrestler who is hardly a year old in the WWE roster. Yes, Big E is a pretty talented wrestler who has the potential to be a future World Champion but that doesn’t mean WWE needs to push him to the top immediately.

Once Langston turns face, WWE needs to start putting him constructively into feuds that keep getting better and challenging for him. The best way to start this would be by pitting him against Wade Barrett. Both wrestlers are on the lookout for something to keep their time invested and a feud between them could workout well.

Though Barrett might end up on the losing side, a few good matches with Big E and strongly-cut promos can help him being put over as a decent heel in the roster.

3. The Shield

Now this would be a big jump from where Big E presently is, but still there are good chances of the feud working out well. Daniel Bryan needs a few strong wrestlers by his side and who better than Langston? Big E could prove to be a major problem for Triple H and his men and at the same time garner a lot of support from the fans.

However, the problem with this feud is that there are far too many big wrestlers in support of Bryan, namely Big Show and Mark Henry and hence the only way this feud can take place is by turning Henry or Show heel.
