20. Erick Rowan as Akeem the African Dream
With Bray, Braun and Harper all getting bigger solo pushes, this leaves less room for Erick in the mix. A rebirth of this former Wyatt member is a very likely scenario.
19. Natalya as Luna Vachon
With neither woman being bombshells and both women having Canadian roots, this transition just makes sense.
18. Neville as Billy Kidman
Give this guy a pair of cut off jean shorts and a Pearl Jam shirt and it's a done deal.
17. Mauro Ranallo as Mean Gene
With all that is going on behind the scenes lately; a receding hairline and a mustache could do nothing but help lighten his spirits.
16. The Ascension as Billy and Chuck
Let's face the facts here; the post-apocalyptic image is out, and gay is in. It's 2017.
15. Titus O'Neil as Zeus
Give this primetime player a uni-brow and it's a done deal.
14. Heath Slater, Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas as "3 Count"
The social outcast days have long come and passed, but that doesn't mean these three shouldn't be reunited as the greatest boy group to ever grace the squared circle.
13. Killian Dain as Bastion Booger
He's fat. He's hairy. And I'm sure he has no problem eating all day. Dude just needs a haircut and he's there.
12. John Cena as CM Punk
How do you get the fans to stop chanting CM Punk and "Cena Sucks"? Marry the two characters and you're left with the fans chanting "CENA PUNK".
11. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson as "The American Males"
The Good Brothers image could go from good to grand.
10. Braun Strowman as Big Show
It's a natural fit.
9. Kalisto as Rey Mysterio Jr.
Both wear lucha masks and are flippy. A change of name is the only missing ingredient.
8. Simon Gotch as Dean Malenko
Shave the mustache, call him "The Iceman" and teach this kid 1000 moves. Oh yeah, and retire him.
7. Dean Ambrose as Brian Pillman
Luke Harper and Dean Ambrose's wardrobe are toeing a fine line of "who's wearing who's outfit?". Someone needs a change and Harper doesn't look like he's changing.
6. Baron Corbin as Raven
The dude is already moody AF. Just tie a flannel around his waist and call it a day.
5. Aiden English as Duke the Dumpster Droese
The dude just lost his tag team partner and his gimmick is a 1910's strongman. Yeah, I think it's safe to say his career is in the dumpster.
4. Apollo Crews as anyone but Apollo Crews
This guy is super talented and super athletic, but damnit does he need a character, cause he is definitely not one.
3. Roman Reigns as Mr. America
I mean the dude already is on pace to be the next Hogan, so why not?
2. Brock Lesnar as Ryback
He's already got the Jimmy John's endorsement, so the "Feed Me More" slogan could work well for both parties involved.
1. Cesaro as Goldberg
How do you sold the Goldberg can't wrestle dilemma? Place some solid back trunks on the other balk guy who happens to be the best wrestler on the roster and hope no one notices.
