Rolling Stone has released their 2014 Superlatives & Rotten Tomatoes list for the year and some of them were expected but IMO they had some different choices in mind for some of those categories than I would've personally done.. The list below is how Rolling Stone thought the categories should be filled out for the 2014 year.

Wrestler of the Year Award: Dolph Ziggler

Sporadically Active Face of the Year: Daniel Bryan

Sporadically Active Heel of the Year: Brock Lesnar

Best Russian Monster (Bulgarian Version): Rusev

Diva of the Year: Paige

Tag Team of the Year: The Usos

Most Convincing New Gimmick: Stardust

Least Convincing Face Turn: Jack Swagger

Most Likeable Loose Cannon: Dean Ambrose

Most Puzzlingly Pushed-Then-Buried Performer: Cesaro


Most Random-But-Intriguing Face Turn:
Erick Rowan


Most Exciting NXT Up-and-Comer: Adrian Neville

Most Disastrous NXT Promotion: Adam Rose

Most Signs of New Life: Randy Orton

Most Tiresome Heel-Face Seesaw Act: Big Show and Mark Henry (tie)


Most Smothered In-Ring Potential: Seth Rollins

Most Underappreciated: John Cena


Do you think Rolling Stone did a good job with their choices for each category? Or is there one or more that you feel otherwise about.. feel free to give your reason why you feel that way here.

What kind of dumb fucking categories are these? lol

Best Russian when Rusev always praises them only?
Loose Canon when WWE has nicknamed Dean Ambrose that?

Bold = That's only in the Russian Version of the magazine.
Underline = I'm sure everyone has Dean Ambrose winning the 'Loose Cannon' award, that category came back strictly because of him IMO. However this one is the most LIKABLE one :)

So they basically named the categories after the people they awarded it to? That's the greatest way to win an award, for sure.
