#4. WWE Superstar Austin Theory
Austin Theory moved from NXT to Monday Night RAW in the 2021 WWE Draft, establishing himself as a heel on the Red Brand. The 24-year-old kicked off his run on RAW by attacking Jeff Hardy. He then defeated The Charismatic Enigma twice in a row.
Theory also feuded with Rey and Dominik Mysterio. He defeated Dominik on the October 25 episode of RAW and his father the following week. Later in November, he went head-to-head with Big E for the WWE Championship. However, he came up short.

Judging by his performance since joining RAW, Theory has the potential to become a top heel in WWE. A feud with John Cena could help him reach that status since the Leader of the Cenation is the ultimate good guy in WWE history. The young wrestler could also learn a lot from working with the 16-time World Champion.
The current RAW Superstar has already laid the ground for a future match against Cena. In a recent interview with Alternative Sport, he disclosed that he would rather retire Cena than win the Tag Team Titles with him.
"I think for Austin Theory, yeah, you’d have to really not see Cena anymore ’cause I’d have to retire him. I’d have to do it, man,” he said.
Earlier this year, Theory revealed on The Bump that he was a Cena fan growing up. He also stated that he once waited three hours to meet the WWE legend at the WWE Performance Center.
