Brock Lesnar - Sure he was great but he could have become an absolute icon of the sport, his mic skills were lacking but he was the man to carry the company forward and we would have had a fresher incarnation of Cena as he would have had a legit challenge. It's a shame he never really cared about the industry, he was a natural entertainer in ring.

Even without him caring about the business, he's still accomplished a whole lot. He had the right push, the right manager (heyman) and he was just entertaining.

That's what I mean he accomplished a lot but he could have been spoken of in the same breath as Hogan, Austin and Rock like Cena is now by some.

Ryback still hasn't reached his potential so he should take the time he has with WWE to reach it imo.

Tyson Kidd, he's 31 and imagine where he would be now if he was pushed correctly.

I understand what you're saying. It's pretty sad to see he doesn't care about the business because if he did, he would've definitely been an icon.

Definitely. Tyson Kidd is just an awesome athlete, a great wrestling and actually does like the business. He does deserve a lot, it's a shame that it's currently not being given.

Yep, that tag team match at NWO was really boring imo until he came in but then it was almost non stop excitement.

He could be a massive star. He's just entertaining, whether he's on a single's run or in a tag-team. He was great at NWO as usual.

I'd give him the IC title and give him a run, see how he handles being on SD each week, he could restore the belt.
