5 Superstars Vince McMahon favors who will replace Roman Reigns if he does leave WWE in 2 years

Roman Reigns revealed in a recent interview with TheSportster that he is looking to transition out of WWE in a couple of years:

How I feel physically, where my health is, I want to take advantage of the next couple of years and just really maximize my WWE career and give back to the company, to the guys in that locker room as much as possible.

If The Big Dog indeed leaves WWE, there will be a huge vacuum created and WWE will have to ensure that they have another Superstar who would be ready to take the mantle of being 'The Guy' when that happens.

While established Superstars like Seth Rollins, Kofi Kingston and AJ Styles will ensure that the top card runs smoothly, let us look at 5 young superstars who will likely be moulded into becoming the face of WWE:

#5 Ricochet

With recent reports stating that WWE is looking to target the teenage demographic yet again, it looks like they have already taken measures to ensure that the product will appease not just younger audiences but also the teenage segment.

Dave Meltzer has reported that the reason Ricochet is being pushed is that Paul Heyman believes that Ricochet appeals to that demographic.

Ricochet is not only a former NXT North American Champion but is also the current United States Champion in WWE. A Championship that he won by defeating Samoa Joe at Stomping Grounds.

The One and Only is currently feuding with AJ Styles and The Club. Both Styles and Ricochet hold one victory over each other and it will be interesting to see where things go from here.

There have been reports that Ricochet is apparently in line for a major push in the coming time, and it looks like Paul Heyman is the man behind Ricochet's recent push. Even so, it is clear that Vince McMahon is onboard with Ricochet being pushed.

While Ricochet does not fit the mould of Vince McMahon's stereotyped Superstar look, it seems that having Heyman in charge of RAW will help smaller Superstars like Ricochet finally make a mark for themselves.

#4 Aleister Black

Ricochet's former Tag Team partner Aleister Black is another Superstar who is reportedly being groomed to get a massive push upon his return.

Black has been out of action ever since Wrestlemania even though his cryptic vignettes continue to be aired on SmackDown. It was rumoured that the former NXT Champion will be feuding with Randy Orton when he makes his return but recent reports have suggested that Black may be facing Cesaro at Extreme Rules.

#3 Baron Corbin

While the WWE Universe continues to shun the former US Champion, it is clear that Vince McMahon is bent on making Corbin the next big star.

Currently feuding with the Universal Champion, Seth Rollins, Corbin has already established himself as a main eventer. Apart from that, Corbin will forever be known as the man who retired Kurt Angle and that accomplishment will ensure that Corbin will always remain on the top card.

Be assured that Vince McMahon will continue to push Corbin, even if it is for the most absurd reasons!

#2 Drew McIntyre

Vince McMahon has been very high on The Scottish Psychopath ever since he made his main roster debut. The former RAW Tag Team Champion has been booked as a force to be reckoned with and has already proven his mettle in matches against Roman Reigns.

McIntyre has everything going for him including a great look, in-ring skills and the ability to deliver on the microphone. Even the legendary Undertaker hand-picked Drew McIntyre to be one of his opponents at Extreme Rules.

#1 Andrade

This might come as a surprise to many considering Andrade's recent booking on SmackDown. But the truth is that Vince McMahon is quite impressed with the Mexican Sensation and wants to turn him into a big star. Some rumours had stated that Andrade was even being considered to win the 2019 Royal Rumble.

Especially now, that Andrade has brushed up his English speaking skills, it is only a matter of time before El Idolo becomes a major name in WWE.
