Kane is ok, but will the fans REALLY be into a Kane/Benoit feud? Also - will the fans really be interested in a heel Booker T going up against Benoit? (a re-hashed WCW feud). Jericho has just turned face and has something good going with Trish. Might be awkward to turn him heel. Ditto for RVD. The fans love RVD WAY too much. |
See that's the problem, I have no clue who should face Benoit. HHH has been the top heel for so long and has buried so many babyfaces, no other heel, except maybe Kane, has been able to really step up to a HHH level on Raw. I don't know if the fans would by Booker as a heel as I think he would still get pops. RVD is almost impossible to turn heel and the only way I think you could turn him heel in to start making him wear suits and stop doing all his Extreme moves. It would have to be something along the lines of the Foley heel turn in ECW when he was praising WCW and "Uncle Eric." Kane seems like the only real contender if HHH leaves and until Orton gets a few more big wins.
Like I said in the post before, I wouldn't mind seeing Matt Hardy step up and challenge Benoit, sort of like what Cena did last year against Brock.
