Taking his place...

Batista heels so Triple H won't have to

Nobody can take HBK's place for now. Not for lack of skills.
The young guy's may've potentials, but none of them seem driven. Why should they be motivated, when they know they'll never be given the same spotlight as Cena.

Morrison STILL sucks on the mic, and that will continue to hold him back in the near future.

Note sure if JoMo will ever get 'there' on the stick, but HBK was pretty stinky to begin with too. Rockers promo's were horrible.

Not to mention I never really came off of HBK's mic work.

HBK has rocked some immense promo's over the years.

The Hogan Stuff
Original DX era.
"Who's The Daddy" in Canada.
"I lost my smile"

...Immediately spring to mind.

Thought about this during Raw, I think Tyson Kidd could totally take HBK's place.

Hell no.

He's drunk it's ok.

The next Shawn Michaels: Nobody on the current roster will take HBK's place, he left a hole that will never be filled imo. Look at the NHL, did anyone take Gretzky's place? No, because he was just too good, same for HBK (imo)

The next Batista: As far as heel heat goes, Sheamus can move into Batista's old spot nicely. While I'm not a fan of the guy at all, I think he's over enough to be solidified as a main event heel like Batista.
