3 superstars who can become the face of WWE after Cody Rhodes

After returning to WWE in 2022, Cody Rhodes has clawed his way up the roster and is now not only the Undisputed WWE Champion but also considered the face of the company. However, the Stamford-based promotion is lined with young stars who are also working their way up to the top.

Cody Rhodes' WWE return in 2022 immediately placed him at the top of the division. Despite being sidelined for months due to an injury not long after returning, fans continued to support him to finish the story, which he did at WrestleMania 40 by defeating Roman Reigns.

The American Nightmare has since proven himself to be the face of the company and continuously defends the title while appearing in other projects outside it. Interestingly, some stars are also making waves for the Stamford-based promotion in one way or another.

In this list, we will look at three superstars who could become the face of WWE after Cody Rhodes.

#3. Dominik Mysterio received praise after turning heel

The face of WWE is usually a good guy, considering they play a "babyface" character. However, there have been times when heels held this title, most recently Roman Reigns. Due to this, it's possible that Dominik Mysterio could be the company's face in the future.

The former North American Champion began his run in WWE as the tag team partner of his father, Rey Mysterio. In 2022, he went solo by betraying the Hall of Famer and joining The Judgment Day. His character, promo skills, and in-ring abilities have since improved and he has been able to move away from being known just as Rey's son. Many have praised him for the heel turn, which could bode well for the future if the superstar continues doing a good job.

#2. Rhea Ripley and Cody Rhodes have already been on the cover of WWE 2K24

One of the things to be considered as the face of the Stamford-based promotion is being featured in most of the merchandise and other projects, like its video game WWE 2K24. Those who make the cover of the video game are considered the top stars and have garnered interest even from mainstream media - like CM Punk, John Cena, and more. Most recently, the stars featured were Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair.

Rhea Ripley has been making the rounds in mainstream media for a while now. Her unique and stunning looks and dominant in-ring performance have captured the attention of wrestling fans and the general audience, and she is loved, whether as a heel or face. It would be no wonder if, sooner or later, she would be considered the face of WWE.

#1. Bron Breakker is quickly making a name for himself on RAW

Bron Breakker is just one of several stars from a wrestling family. However, despite Bron being tied to the company due to his family, he continues to prove he is one of the top stars because of his own efforts.

Bron is the Intercontinental Champion and while his reign may be new, he has showcased that he deserves the gold in his feud with Sami Zayn. While he may be playing a heel character currently, there is no doubt that Breakker will be considered the face of the company in the future.
