6. Push Antonio Cesaro As The New CM Punk
Ziggler can fill Punk's spot at Mania, but in the long run, Dolph is the next Shawn Michaels not the next CM Punk. The next CM Punk style character has to be Antonio Cesaro. The 'Best In The World' gimmick should belong to the talented Swiss star because he really is the best in-ring worker the WWE has. Given the chance on the microphone he has always seemed astute too. I would abandon the Real Americans tag team and repackage Cesaro as a new top heel. The inclusion in February's Elimination Chamber title match is already a step in the right direction. From that point, I would have Cesaro come out on Raw the night after the Chamber to talk up his performance. Have him specifically refer to himself as the "New Best In The World", a comment that's sure to get some heel heat. By taking this gimmick up it also gives WWE a readymade feud should CM Punk ever decide to get himself back to work one day. I would further Cesaro's new top role by giving him a notable Wrestlemania match and win at the show. It would obviously have to be against a credible babyface, so I would book Cesaro vs Big Show; with the added sell of could Cesaro swing the giant?
