5 Superstars WWE Smackdown needs right now

Imagine Kurt Angle leading American Alpha to battle

5- Rey Mysterio Jr.

Rey Mysterio Jr. could bring high flying action back to Smackdown

The only thing that Raw is doing better than Smackdown is the Cruiserweight Division. After the reception of the inaugural CWC Tournament and the success of the Cruiserweights on Raw, it was rumored that Smackdown will have its own Cruiserweight Division very, very soon. And who better to lead The Cruiserweights in the blue brand, than Rey Mysterio Jr. himself? He’s got the reputation, he’s got the charisma, and even at his age, he certainly can go.

Look at the quality of matches that he’s been putting on in Lucha Underground right now. Rey Mysterio’s addition to the blue brand roster would also give Vince McMahon the Latino connect that he’s been searching for. Kalisto did not connect with the audience. Alberto Del Rio was let go before he could. La Sombra/Andrade Cien Almas is not getting over in NXT, so it’s doubtful he’ll do so on the main roster. In fact, if Mysterio puts over a new star like Apollo Crews, it’ll boost his career.
