10 WWE Attitude Era Stars Who Could Replace Today's Roster

2. The Rock/Roman Reigns

This one is obvious, but, yeah. There's a gear missing that comes from The Rock being five years into the industry and having already studied under Pat Patterson, Vince McMahon, Dr. Tom Prichard, a slew of the best workers in the business in their prime and being raised in and around the wrestling business that's just missing from Roman Reigns' backstory. If 2000 era Rocky (at five years in the industry) were booed at Wrestlemania 31 the same way Roman Reigns (similarly at five years in the industry) were booed, we all know the result would've been MUCH different.
