4. Return Of Big Show

As a secret reveal to combat Authors of Pain and Seth Rollins, Big Show really isn’t a bad option.

Show made his return to Raw for the first time in nearly two years, and it was well received. That’s quite the turnaround from a few years ago, when fans were either indifferent or venomous toward the World’s Largest Athlete. Show standing up to Rollins and AOP automatically make him a serious threat in fans’ eyes, and not turning immediately (a Big Show staple) after returning let them get a little invested in him.

We’re not saying that Big Show is the answer here and should be a major player, but maybe just for once, let him stay as he returns and see how it goes from there.
