WWE Gallery: Every WWE Main Roster Star Ranked From Worst To Best

13 - Shinsuke Nakamura

If WWE was a meritocracy, the King of Strong Style, a believable, insanely gifted, and utterly unique wrestler would be the 1A to AJ Styles. WWE is not a meritocracy. The TV grind has dulled his sharpness, too.

12 - Neville

Still on the roster page at time of writing. Still an absolutely superb performer. There are few, if any, better at fusing traditional WWE storytelling with state of the art workrate.

11 - Finn Bálor

Wrestles so bloody well in spite of infuriating, fatalistic booking that he is well positioned to become WWE’s next grassroots sensation, if a recent WWE.com poll is any indication. It probably isn’t. We’ll always have TLC.

10 - Dean Ambrose

He wrestles the hardest schedule in WWE, and is thus easy to take for granted - but Ambrose, when not going full ham, is an absorbing and unique performer capable of the highest level of drama.
