One could easily argue that the present-day WWE roster is one of the most versatile in the company's history. Superstars from the current roster represent several generations, with the likes of Edge, Goldberg, Triple H, and Christian representing the past.

Meanwhile, the likes of Drew McIntyre, Sasha Banks, Bianca Belair, and Roman Reigns are leading the new generation forward. Several of these popular stars currently hold WWE World Championships. As a result, they're firmly positioned atop the WWE hierarchy right now.

This mixed versatility has also provided WWE with a variety of babyface and heel Superstars. While some of them typically switch back and forth between the two dispositions, there are a few exceptions who might never turn heel.

This article takes a look at some of the current WWE babyface Superstars who could play the "good guy" for the rest of their careers.


#5 WWE SmackDown's Otis is one of the most lovable Superstars today

Otis may not seem like WWE World Champion material to many fans. But to the majority of the WWE Universe, he is one of the most lovable Superstars in the business today. He oozes charisma, and he's naturally likable. It's hard not to root for the "Blue Collar Working Man."

In fact, in 2020, Otis came close to winning a WWE World Championship when he won the Money in the Bank briefcase. A few months later, he lost the contract to The Miz at WWE Hell in a Cell. In doing so, WWE broke up the Heavy Machinery tag team and turned Tucker heel by having him attack Otis.

When the company was presented with the perfect opportunity, WWE decided to turn Tucker heel. Otis is still a babyface, as the company certainly values his skills in connecting with the WWE Universe. The younger audience seems to like Otis' hilarious antics both inside and outside the ring.

Over recent weeks, Otis has been teaming up with Chad Gable. Together, the duo has been working with Daniel Bryan. The partnership with the former WWE Champion certainly helps Otis get some valuable TV time.

It could also help him develop his on-screen character. As far as a heel turn is concerned, Otis is a WWE Superstar who seems like he'll remain a babyface for the forseeable future.

#4 Bianca Belair's WWE Royal Rumble win received huge support from fans around the world

If there was any uncertainty regarding Bianca Belair's abilities as a babyface, then "The EST of WWE" once again proved every one of doubters wrong at the 2021 Royal Rumble.

In 2020, Belair entered her first Royal Rumble match and instantly won the fans over with her impressive performance. Belair eliminated eight other Superstars in a record-breaking showing. Right off the bat, WWE cashed in on Belair's momentum, and the company's investment is paying off.

Fast forward to 2021. Belair once again made history at the Royal Rumble. This time around, she lasted a total of 56 minutes. In the end, she eliminated Rhea Ripley to win her first Royal Rumble Match. In doing so, Belair became the second-ever African American Superstar to win the Royal Rumble in WWE.

Following her historic performance, Belair received a lot of praise from the WWE Universe. With her first championship now in sight, it is likely that Belair will remain a babyface. Her career is taking off, and the fans are already rallying behind her.

#3 The Street Profits are two of the WWE Universe's favorite stars

If there's a tag team that WWE has absolutely no reason to turn heel at any point, it has to be The Street Profits. This duo is quite over with the WWE Universe. The team's gimmick is that it likes to party with the WWE Universe.

COVID-19 protocols will probably prevent Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins from showcasing the massive energy by dancing in the crowd. Still, once the fans return, Ford and Dawkins will still be among two of the most popular Superstars in WWE.

The former SmackDown Tag Team Champions recently dropped their titles to Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler. But with WrestleMania 37 rapidly approaching, WWE has the perfect opportunity to put the belts back on Ford and Dawkins. The babyfaces could regain their gold in front of a hot crowd at WrestleMania.

At WrestleMania 36, the Street Profits defended their RAW Tag Team Championship in an empty arena against Angel Garza and Austin Theory. But this time around, the fan-favorites could receive the cheers they once generated on a nightly basis.

#2. Keith Lee has the potential to be WWE's biggest babyface

After he missed out on WWE Royal Rumble 2021, Keith Lee will be aiming for a successful road To WrestleMania 37.

During his time in NXT, Keith Lee was arguably one of the most popular Superstars WWE had to offer. His athletic abilities and his sheer power proved to be an absolutely destructive combination inside the ring. The WWE Universe treated him like a proper babyface Superstar who was more than capable of destroying his opponents.

Near the end of his terrific run in NXT, WWE put both the NXT and the North American Championships on Lee before the company called him up to the main roster. As a RAW Superstar, the former double champion got off to a bumpy start. But he has slowly been making his way back into the title picture.

Lee could undoubtedly pull off the role of a heel Superstar. The best babyfaces can often be great as villains. But given the WWE Universe's response to Lee, the company would be better off if it capitalized on Lee's genuine popularity as a heroic character.

#1. WWE veteran John Cena is unlikely to ever turn heel

If there is one Superstar in WWE history who is unlikely to ever turn heel, it's John Cena. For years, a portion of the WWE Universe around the world has urged the company to turn Cena heel. Countless fans have wondered how a John Cena heel turn would turn out.

WWE has rarely teased Cena's heelish side. One instance where fans got a brief preview was at WrestleMania 36, where Cena temporarily played an nWo version himself during the Firefly Fun House Match.

Now that he's working part-time, the former multi-time world champion has been off WWE TV for quite some time. Cena has been focusing more on his career outside of WWE. As a result, it is unlikely that WWE will turn him heel when he's unable to perform on a full-time schedule.

Over the years, John Cena has established himself as the biggest babyface in WWE history, and the future Hall of Famer will probably end his career as the good guy many fans have idolized for almost two decades.
