Fans often criticize WWE for their booking of babyfaces. The good guys used to be among the best performers for the promotion. Stars like Hulk Hogan, Macho Man Randy Savage, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and The Rock were all prominently featured and became the biggest stars the industry has ever seen.
In 2022, the landscape of heroes isn't what it used to be. Brock Lesnar has been a revelation as a babyface with his natural enthusiasm to be loved by the fans for being himself. However, the company has plenty of other faces naturally adored by the audience.

Riddle started in NXT, beloved by the audience. This adulation only grew through his months in the developmental territory. His partnership with Pete Dunne as the Broserweights led to brilliant character work.
His transition to the main roster was smooth. Riddle is charming, funny, and feels like a friend to everyone watching. He is a natural babyface in every way.
3) Current WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch
When Becky Lynch returned at SummerSlam 2021, fans were happy to see their hero again. The audience rallied behind The Man, which led to her winning the first women's main event of WrestleMania in 2019. Her absence helped alleviate any resentment over her run to the top, so everyone was ready to welcome her back.
This made the company's decision to turn Becky heel baffling. The move was much maligned by fans and pundits. Becky Lynch is genuine, personable, and humorous. She was also valiant and fought to become the top star of the women's division.
Becky's a modern-day Dusty Rhodes meets Daniel Bryan, so she will always be a natural babyface fans want to cheer for.
2) Former WWE SmackDown Women's Champion Bianca Belair
Bianca Belair started in WWE on NXT as a cocky heel. But her skills and confidence immediately made her a fan favorite and slowly transformed her into a babyface. Even as The EST, something about Bianca made the fans rally behind her more and more over time.
Her journey makes Belair relatable to the fanbase. The former SmackDown Women's Champion has earned respect through her efforts to fight through adversity.

1) Former WWE Champion Rey Mysterio
Rey Mysterio is the most decorated luchador in professional wrestling history. From Mexico to WCW to WWE, he is a surefire Hall of Famer and has won championship gold wherever he has worked.
The masked superstar was unmasked in WCW and tried being a bad guy, but the results were disappointing because no one wanted to boo Mysterio.
The ultimate underdog has fought the odds time after time. He is always the smallest fighter but always shows the most heart. His determination and drive to be the best have made him a significant babyface for the better part of the past 25 years.
