Here we are back for part 2. First we looked at the top 5 underused talents of the past, now we will look at the top 5 underused talent currently in WWE. Some of these WWE superstars would have been at the top of the list as little as a year or two ago, but recently have actually been used by the company semi-successfully. One of the talents has never been used to his full potential state side like he has been overseas, and the other is a personal favorite of mine, who is criminally underused by the WWE at this time. Will you agree? Will you violently disagree in the comments section below? Only time and this article will tell.
5. CM Punk
Now I know what you are thinking. CM Punk just had one of the longest title reigns of all time, how can you say he is underused? Well, my dear sweet friends, because I have seen the majority of Punk's work in Ring of Honor, and I have watched him ply his craft across many rings, and across many microphones. The man is golden, in the ring and on the mic. The only reason he is this high on the current talent list is because of his most recent title run. Hopefully, this will change after Punk returns from healing from his injuries. I hope that after stealing the show at WM29 this year, WWE will finally understand this man should be one of the futures of the company. Now, I will admit my bias. When
I spoke earlier about my path back to watching pro wrestling, CM Punk is one of the people who accelerated me along that path. From the first time I saw him work, I knew I needed to see everything he did and I am so thankful it appears that WWE is finally taking notice of the great talent they have in their fold.
