Christian was one of WWE's most underrated stars for a long, long time. In 2011, he finally had a flirtation with the main event - he feuded with Randy Orton and won the World Heavyweight Championship twice - but his body soon gave out him.

Over the next few years, Christian suffered a plethora of injuries - including multiple concussions - and he was forced to quietly retire.

It's a shame that Christian never had the chance to say goodbye on his own terms, but maybe his career doesn't have to be over yet - maybe he can still contribute as a personality.

Christian could easily join Raw as the new General Manager, and that would let him back in the spotlight. It would also allow him to work as a heel once more - either right off the bat or after a turn - sucking up to Stephanie McMahon. There are few stars who can manage to be snivelling and cowardly without hurting their credibility, but Christian made a career of it.

The opportunity to do it again is not gone.
