7 WWE Stars One Tweak Away From PERFECTION

2. Seth Rollins

The Tweak: Fly solo.

Why It'd Help: Who would've thought that the crude insertion of a throwaway, stock-metal lyric could capture fan imaginations and make Seth Rollins an even bigger star? 'Burn It Down' seemed so cheesy at first, it really did. Now, one can't imagine his machine-like entrance beat without it. That interactive element helped his summer, no doubt.

Here's the thing: The Shield re-re-union (this has been the second reprise in 12 months, don't forget) hasn't.

Seth was doing just fine by himself before being planted back alongside Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns to sell some new merch and dig up the past. His Intercontinental Title feud with Dolph Ziggler was a Raw highlight, and he's been the single most consistent wrestler on the brand all year.

People were gravitating towards Rollins in a way that must make Reigns sycophants backstage jealous. That's what they wanted for him, not for anyone else. As it is, Seth has a raw magnetism that backs up his wrestling ability.

That took years to establish and won't soon go away.
