17. Goldust
An absolute revelation since returning to WWE, Goldust has found a way to roll back the clock ... in fact I think I have enjoyed his in-ring work more this time around than any other run he has had with the company. He looks fit, he looks athletic, and he wrestles with intelligence. Cody and The Shield will have learned a great deal from the psychology the elder Rhodes brother has demonstrated in his comeback. A 2014 clash at Wrestlemania against Cody is a logical storyline progression - and should be a decent contest. Highlight of the year: Comeback at Battleground against The Shield
