#2 Baron Corbin
The Lone Wolf. Despite a lot of initial reservations among fans, Baron Corbin has made quite the impression since making the jump up to the main roster. The hard-hitting ex-NFL star has been running through SmackDown Live, managing to land a WWE Championship opportunity in the process.
So now, as we enter 2017, it seems only logical that Corbin will finally capture the world title within the next few years. The guy has been improving with each passing week and if you don't reward him for that, he seems like the kind of guy who will go elsewhere in order to find the success he deserves.
It'd be great to see him defeat Cena for the belt, but in reality, there are numerous other ways in which you could book this moment to make Baron look great. After all, his finisher is one of the best in WWE right now and if you protect it, you've got a money-making moment down the line.
Onto a nicer, softer and generally more fun choice to end the list.
