Nobody. They have to be the first "whoever the fuck they are".

Austin nor Rock was the "next" Hogan. They were entirely themselves.

The question is more "who can be the next star who transcendes the industry"


The answer is there isnt one. Not yet. This is similar to the Hart/HBK years where the guys could work but they didnt make any money.

Even if there was a real candidate now, probably not going to happen till the WWE gets rid of their current "nobody can be bigger than the brand" mentality and/or Vince leaves. Not even Reigns will be able to go beyond the "brand" in terms of mega stardom and Cena right now is the last mega star of the WWE because his rise wasn't impacted by this.

CM Punk transcended wrestling only because of how terrible it was to work for the WWE at that time.

If he had been treated well, he'd never have reached as high as he did.

Randy will be a part timer later with Cena. Don't know if anyone else from their generation will be near their level. Can't even think of another real main eventer honestly. But there have a lot of potential people in the current generation. Rollins, Reigns, Ambrose, AJ, Owens, and so on. Just depends on how many stick around and how WWE treats these people.

More on the unwritten side but places like the Observer have stated or implied over the years about that sort of mentality within the WWE. Rock leaving for Hollywood was the basis for it but didn't really take effect or become a hindrance till maybe the end of the 1st Brand Split era. By then Cena was already well established as the mega star for the WWE.

• Joe/Zayn was alright but the outcome had been pretty obvious for weeks now.

• The ending of the Tag Team Championship match pretty much cements the rematch taking place at WrestleMania.

Enzo & Cass could possibly win there, even though Enzo is just terrible.

• Nia losing to Banks is just stupid. What's even more stupid is the way she lost, especially after what happened during the match.

• When Foley said that both Jinder and Rusev would be having singles matches, I just knew one of them would be against Big Show.

Cesaro/Jinder was a pleasant surprise. I can only hope this is the beginning of some investment going into Jinder.

As for Big Show/Rusev, I think Rusev came off pretty bad from that match. A part of me thinks that Big Show/Rusev could be a "backup plan" if Shaq doesn't get his act together for WrestleMania.

Also, Rusev's new haircut is terrible. He just looks like your average fatass with it. Short hair on Rusev just makes him look fat and not at all intimidating.

He's lost his "look" and just looks more like a random jobber now with that haircut.

• I skipped the Cruiserweight Championship match because the division is just awful and I have about 5% interest in it.

• Strowman losing to Reigns is just stupid. What's even more stupid is the way he lost, especially after what happened during the match.

• I skipped the Raw Women's Championship match because the division is just awful and I have about 5% interest in it.

Halfway there.

• Overall, the PPV was pretty bad for so many reasons.

He looks a lot like Andrade Cien Almas with the new hair style.

Just waiting for him to start wearing a hat and/or suspenders to complete the look. Might as well also give him his own 100-based nickname to become Rusev Cto Machka "100 Crushes"

Cruiserweight match was probably match of the night, and I'm saying that with also having very little interest in the division.

yes, the ko punch should be an automatic DQ for closed fist.
