10 WWE Questions You Most Want Answered (Feb 20)

10. "Who Has The MOST Wasted Talent And Potential On The Roster Right Now?"

@NoahPoole4 has a double barreled question here and wants to know who I think is the most wasted talent on the roster, and who has the most potential. The answer to the first part of that question is timely, as I think it's King Barrett. Why oh why did WWE trash the Bad New gimmick when it was getting over? Reportedly, it was because Vince McMahon thought it was on the brink of becoming too popular when he wanted it to be heel schtick. Why didn't the boss allow the gimmick to set of on its natural course? He did with The New Day. Remember how awkward it was when those three were being pushed as faces at the start of their current run? King Barrett's current plight will forever take my mind back to the 2014 Royal Rumble. One man left to enter, crowd begging for Daniel Bryan. No music and a loud |I'M AFRAID I'VE GOT SOME BAD NEEEEEWS" from Barrett would have been the making of him. The second part of that question screams Rusev to me. WWE were on the brink of creating one of the biggest monster heels we've seen in a generation when the Bulgarian Brute tore through the roster during his 14 month unbeaten start on the main roster. Now, they've killed him. Rusev's a B team player in the League of Nations and Lana is nowhere to be seen after looking like she could have been as close to a female Paul Heyman that we've ever seen. The make up of the Rusev and Lana team heading into WrestleMania 31 was perfect. WWE need to bring them back. RuRu has proven there is more to him than simply being a foreigner. He's hilarious. His less than perfect English has certainly charmed me, at least... Rusev looks like he's going to be an incredibly versatile performer going forward.
