10 WWE Superstars Who'd Be Better Off In The Indies (Or Overseas)

WWE just don't know what to do with these talented folk.

WWE's in a strange situation not just in the oft-lambasted main event scene, but actually all over the card. For as much as WWE may have absolutely no idea what to do with Daniel Bryan, there's literally an entire mid-and-lower card that's floundering right now between near-ascendancy and total irrelevance. More than anything else WWE is doing to solve other pressing issues on their programming, actively getting some talents to pursue opportunities to groom themselves on the indies or overseas is a smart idea. Of course, there are wrestlers who are already taking it upon themselves to get out of their contracts, head out on the road and get those opportunities. Justin Gabriel is now the newly released PJ Black, and is headed to an independent wrestling promotion near you, likely wanting to get those aforementioned chances for improving their lot in the wrestling business. Hopefully one believes that Black can return to South Africa and do for that nation's wrestling scene what the similarly released Drew Galloway has done in Scotland with ICW. From obvious names like "Masters of the Universe" tag team Tyson Kidd and Cesaro, to even a few divas who could use some time away from WWE cameras, here's a list of wrestlers for whom WWE at-present truly isn't the best possible fit for their unique talents.
