10 Candidates For WWE’s Bizarre Post-WrestleMania 35 Push

10. Luke Gallows

Christ knows how Vince McMahon's infantilised, increasingly unhinged mind works.

He is a fascinating subject for the armchair psychologist, for his output runs the wild gamut of inspired genius all the way down to f*ck off, Vince, why have I spent 28 years of my life putting up your bullsh*t.

Complex but also searingly predictable in its simplicity, his mind is a paradox. We are firmly aware of one thing for certain: Vince likes big men. He is interested, as his enraptured WBF Body Stars ad once ran, in bodies, and most pressingly, what makes them look so good. Perhaps Vince, in his Titan Towers office, adjusts his office chair so that the seat is as close to the ground as possible. He then orders the undercard rank and file into his office and surveys them from this position, for an approximation of that old André The Giant camera angle. The performer it takes him the longest amount of time to look at is then rewarded with a new entrance theme, and a few wins over Curt Hawkins.

Luke Gallows is tall. He will do.

"What do we do with Karl Anderson?"

"Who?"

"OK. Gallows is a funny dude, actually, this could work."

"I'm not paying him to think!"
