QUESTION - Who was the 2nd biggest superstar (debuted post Wrestlemania 18) behind John Cena

I think it goes without saying that Cena has been the biggest superstar in the WWE post Wrestlemania 18. Which wrestler that debuted in the WWE post Wrestlemania 18 was the 2nd biggest superstar? Dave Batista? Randy Orton? CM Punk? Daniel Bryan? Brock Lesnar? Roman Reigns? (lol) Other names?

Batista was definitely up there with Cena around 2005ish, and is now establishing himself outside of wrestling. Daniel Bryan was arguably the most popular superstar post Wrestlemania 18.....even if his stay at the top was short lived due to injury. Brock Lesnar's track record and success inside and outside the WWE speaks for itself. Very few people have the resume, track record, and name value of Brock Lesnar. CM Punk is another guy that has some mainstream popularity outside of wrestling, and he also has the longest WWE title reign in the modern era. His 'pipe bombs' really got him to the next level.

Orton's won the World/WWE title numerous times, and the guy was insanely over before Summerslam 2004. Even before his squash job to Triple H at Wrestlemania 2009, Orton and Legacy were insanely over and Orton was arguably the best heel since Wrestlemania 18 during that time period.

Who do you think is/was the undisputed #2 behind John Cena post Wrestlemania 18? (wrestlers that debuted post Wrestlemania 18).

For me, Daniel Bryan is close, but Brock is the clear cut guy. Brock just has an 'aura' about him due to his UFC success and larger than life personna. Lesnar ended Taker's Wrestlemania streak, and will likely be in and around the main-event scene for a few more years......even if he will ultimately be used to put over someone like Reigns.
