4 Superstars WWE Needs Right Now After Roman Reigns' Unfortunate Exit

Modified Oct 23, 2018 08:15 GMT

In what ended up being one of the most emotional nights on Monday Night Raw, WWE were coerced to relinquish Roman Reigns' Universal Championship after the Big Dog broke character and admitted his battle with Leukemia.

While the entire wrestling world was shocked in silence, it is definitely a hard time for the company to find a Superstar that can fill Roman's shoes and bring star-power to Monday Night Raw.

With Superstars such as Drew Mcintyre, Dean Ambrose, and Braun Strowman emerging out to become a headline act on the flagship show, Vince McMahon needs a genuine face that can bring something special on the red brand.

It's a damn shame that the Big Dog's return is in jeopardy, and it's a wake-up call for Vince McMahon to bring someone as credible as Roman to Raw and make this show more prestigious again.

Here are the 4 Superstars WWE needs right now after Roman Reigns' unfortunate exit.

#1 Batista

There's no denying that legions of WWE fans were happy to see Batista back in the WWE after the Animal quit the company four years ago and went to fulfill his Hollywood commitments.

Considering that he returned for SmackDown 1000, Batista wasted no time and savagely pushed Triple H to the limits by teasing an epic match at WrestleMania 35.

The former WWE Champion has a lot of momentum at the moment and judging by the way that segment transpired, it seems the entire WWE Universe wants to see them clash again at the Show of Shows.

However, the Big Dog's current exit from the company could coerce the management to bring Batista back sooner rather than later; and in turn, bringing something fresh to the red brand.

The Animal's arrival could ignite some fantastic feuds with Braun Strowman, Drew Mcintyre, Bobby Lashley, Finn Balor, and Dean Ambrose working as perfect opponents.

It's an unfortunate time for the WWE after Roman Reigns' exit, but Batista's return could fill that gap and make for some entertaining television on Monday Night Raw.

#2 Kenny Omega

Despite being one of the greatest wrestlers on the planet today, Kenny Omega has not reached an agreement to sign for the WWE, but that could change very soon.

Since the Cleaner is rumored to leave NJPW in 2019, Vince McMahon could offer him a very lucrative contract; coercing him and the Young Bucks to finally arrive on Monday Night Raw.

With Roman Reigns' absence hindering the red brand, Omega's arrival could bring something legitimately exciting and make the company great again.

With the IWGP Heavyweight Champion enjoying tremendous success on the independent circuit, arriving in the WWE could catapult him to the top of the wrestling industry.

Kenny Omega possesses all the credentials in the world to become the face of the WWE, and with the Big Dog apparently taking time off from the company, Vince McMahon could ascend him to the top of Monday Night Raw.

#3 Brock Lesnar

The Beast needs to sign another contract

With Brock Lesnar's WWE future still up in the air, such an unfortunate situation could force the company to present another lucrative contract to the Beast Incarnate to take the benefit of his services.

While the former Universal Champion is scheduled to appear at WWE Crown Jewel, his UFC commitments will certainly hinder Vince McMahon's future plans during the Road to WrestleMania 35.

If Brock Lesnar indeed signs another contract with the WWE, then the company could certainly do some good business going forward in 2019.

Having been the most popular box-office attractions in the entire wrestling industry, Brock Lesnar's aura could prove beneficial for Monday Night Raw, with feuds like Drew Mcintyre, Dean Ambrose, Bobby Lashley, and Finn Balor expected to happen.

If there's a momentous time for WWE to push the envelope with Brock Lesnar, it is now and it could prove to be very beneficial for the company from a business stand-point.

#4 CM Punk

Legions of WWE fans have vehemently criticized WWE's booking on Monday Night Raw, and while the company did show some improvement tonight, things might get predictable and bumpy again.

The company needs a Superstar that can revolutionize wrestling again and make it more compelling for the audience. CM Punk emerges as an ideal candidate that ticks all those boxes that makes Monday Night Raw more entertaining.

Despite leaving the company on unfortunate terms, there's no denying that both CM Punk and Vince McMahon need each other's support at this point, with the latter wanting someone to step up and fill Roman Reigns' shoes.

Since John Cena has been following a tough part-time schedule, the Cult of Personality's return to the squared circle could take the company by storm and bring more viewership and ratings to the product being presented.

While Punk's return seems like an unlikely possibility, WWE must do everything in their power to gravitate his attention back to the industry he fell in love with.
