Reigns is the best out of that group Titus doesn't get used often on TV. Guess Darren Young came out the closet for nothing. Reigns is the only one of The Shied that could legitimately be the face of the company. He has that appeal. I personally think Rollins does too but most people don't see it. Reigns has presence and charisma. Says a lot without saying a thing. I think his body language and mannerisms are underrated. Catching up with The Shield matches I missed during the last few months I see that.
One thing for sure though; You see him you could buy him as a powerhouse ass kicker. Yet he also is handsome enough to woo the ladies who bring their kids like Cena. A guy like that could be the face of the company. This guy is the next Orton. The generational superstar but I think he'll become even better if they book him right. Which is pretty much as a new Goldberg but much more legitimate in the ring than Ryback because he's not hurting people.
I think in the eyes of management it's that he's not Brock but he could convincingly stand toe to toe with him within the WWE universe etc. can't fault them for sticking to their old company staple. When it's all said and done though all 3 of these guys will be stars. They balance each other well right now.
Rollins is better in the ring than Reigns by galaxies. He's just more polished and experienced there. Ambrose could talk but isn't as good as Rollins in the ring but Rollins still isn't great on the mic at least he's losing the lisp.
Reigns can't talk or hold his own in the ring to the extent that his partners could but like Goldberg he's been well protected and they only highlight his strengths and that has gotten him over. In the end because of that he has that element of excitement on his side.
You want to see if someone will match Reigns because you see him holding his own against the main eventers like it was nothing. That is what gives him that it factor and it's why he's being viewed as the "star". I think Reigns is the guy they've been looking for for the last 8 years now.
If the faction breaks up I see Ambrose Vs. Reigns being the main feud to come out of that though. It pretty much writes itself cause both characters are polar opposites. Great contrast to each other and you could buy them as arch rivals because of their past in the faction. Rollins will be kept the more neutral. Ambrose the heel and Reigns the silent but deadly big guy face archetype. -
I think Goldust is going under the radar too. With all the excitement about Batista, Lesnar etc returning people forgot that Goldust, whose career is twice as long as both Lesnar and batista's combined, is having great matches sometimes twice a week.
This might be his best run, in ring since what the early 90s? Maybe even better than then. It's kinda sad hes looking to retire this year, hes still quite sharp. I honestly might replace Punk with him on my list. -
Dusty been puttin in work...

Ceasaro
Riegns
Tytus

Not a lot of love for tytus,big E or reigns...power guys can be good wrestlers to people
Power guys can be good, I just don't think their in ring performances are better than the rest of the guys we've been listing.
Examples of power guys that were good in ring are the Undertaker and Brock before he left in 2004. These current power guys ain't on that level yet. -

Why so irritated? ttitle didn't say "Top 5 characters" it said top 5 in ring workers and Del Rio definitely is one of their best guys today in ring.

ADR is a good worker you dont have to like his character but you dont gotta devalue everything he does either.

Honorable mention: The USO's
Honorable mention Big E Langston. He's starting to grow on me. Belly to belly >>> Belly to back.
A couple of more tweaks and dude would be a monster also that big ending is dope, I miss when he use to catch a ? 5 times with it. -

Daniel Bryan of course
Cesaro
I like what Seth has done in the ring. Reigns is a beast but we need to see more from him than just spears, clotheslines and superman punches.
I guess Dolph gets that last slot.
Kofi can still do some ill ? but has fell off in the past few years. He can't even do his SOS correctly anymore or hasn't done that ? where he jumps and gets both legs on the top rope in years.
As far as the females, Naomi has been impressive as hell. -

Obvious that I'm joking w dude.
But I do not agree with ADR being a good worker. Here and there, yes, just not on a consistent basis. -
ADR is a great worker but hes a mechanic. He's not entertaining enough to get people into his matches consistently.
It works if he has a good foil like Mysterio, Punk or Cena but against people who aren't that over he comes across as a bathroom break. It's unfortunate, I like dude. -
1. Daniel Bryan
2. The Usos
3. Seth Rollins
4. The Brotherhood
5. CM Punk -
1. Daniel Bryan
2. CM Punk (Probably would have been number 1 but a lot of the more recent tag team matches I've seen him in have gotten predictable and scripted)
3. Seth Rollins
4. Randy Orton(that hanging DDT is nice)
5. Damien Sandow(Just like his style in the ring)
As far as CM Punk, I think what it is, is that there was a time where he was being consistently booked in tag matches week after week and it would all be the same. he would just stay in his corner most of the match waiting for that hot tag. He'd do his little routine with a couple of drop kicks, that spinning neckbreaker and a high knee in the turnbuckle and that would be the extent of a lot of his matches. His one on one matches are a lot more interesting though.
