(FOUR) RVD
He’s in TNA, but he might as well be retired. They say “if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around…”… well, you get it. That’s what TNA is, the tree falling in an empty forest. I’m happy he’s still active and getting paid to wrestle and he doesn’t have to worry about clean pee anymore. It’s just he’s on the last years of his career. He could STILL come into WWE and contribute. He’d be a great second face or heel on Smackdown and would be great in the mid card. Meanwhile, he’d still be able to more than hang with the main eventers. This is “wanted” on a limited basis though. It’s time sensitive for sure.
(THREE) CHYNA
Imagine if someone was feuding with Triple H and then out of nowhere Chyna shows up. That would be HUGE. She can still bump and get in a few spots, but her as the crazy GM of RAW or Smackdown would make for interesting television for sure. I know she did the adult movie stuff, but so what? Just ignore it. Her value is high if you ask me. There is SO much more left potential in Chyna in wrestling that it’s sad that her personal problems and her former relationships ruined any chance of them doing anything like this.
(TWO) CHRIS JERICHO
He’ll eventually be back. He’s smart and knows what’s up. He’s not one of those wrestlers who ONLY focus on wrestling. He’s done that and more than paid his dues. If he wants to act, host, and rock out with his band then who are we to judge? He gave us more than enough awesome matches and memories as wrestling fans. The thing is, he’s always going to love wrestling. I really feel that he’ll be back soon for another stint, this time doing something even cooler than the last. Chris Jericho has always been ahead of his time. Him leaving and coming back is only giving everyone else a chance to catch up a little.
(ONE) SUNNY
Same with Chyna. Is the idea of “veteran female” in WWE a myth? Do they ALL have to be twenty-something skinny little model chicks? Imagine if they put Sunny in the GM role of RAW or Smackdown. She’s like the exact opposite of Vicki Gurrerro. She’s got more of a classic beauty to her, but she can hang on the mic and knows the business as well as any dude in the locker room. Her charisma and presence has STILL not been touched. Trish is often said to have surpassed her, but it’s like comparing Marilyn Monroe and Pamela Anderson. I’d even be cool with Sunny being a backstage interviewer, manager, or even commentator. She could literally do ANY non-wrestler role and rock at it.
