A new year brings a new beginning and the same is applied in WWE. With every single year, WWE makes new changes in order to make the product better and exciting. The company tried building several new Superstars last year, not just in the men's division but also the women's division.

A number of Superstars got drafted from NXT to the main roster, making an instant impact. Moreover, a few underused Superstars also received a deserving spotlight. Becky Lynch, Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt, Kofi Kingston, and many more had a memorable 2019.

It will interesting to see who gets the opportunity to shine this year. In this article, we take a look at three underutilized male Superstars from the Red Brand, who need a deserving push in 2020.

#3 EC3

Arguably the most underrated Superstar of the entire RAW roster, EC3 had a forgettable year. Since his arrival on the main roster, the fans have been showing displeasure about his booking, but things have not changed so far.

EC3 signed on to join NXT in 2018, and he was one of the biggest names of the developmental brand having earned his reputation in other promotions. Although he didn't win the most coveted prize of NXT, he still had a great turn and was speculated to have a bright future on the main roster. As a matter of fact, EC3 started off his main roster career on a high note, defeating former WWE Champion Dean Ambrose.

Nevertheless, it has been a substandard run since his victory over the Lunatic Fringe. He's won the 24\7 Championship four times, but has failed to do anything thing else substantive.

The 36-year old is not only a talented performer but also possesses the charisma of a top guy. He is competent in delivering spectacular matches week after week if he is given a chance. Therefore, the WWE should give him a deserving push this year.

#2 Aleister Black

Aleister Black, one of the 'breakout stars of the year', has made a great impact since making his main roster debut earlier this year. In spite of having a stupendous year, Black didn't get the push as a top star, and it wouldn't be wrong to call him an underutilized talent. With that in mind, the fans will be hoping to see him at the top of the ladder this year.

Making his debut as a singles competitor, the Dutch Destroyer has had just two proper feuds. After delivering promos from his darkroom for weeks, he squared off against Cesaro and dominated the latter in all of their encounters. Black moved RAW a couple of months ago and recently commenced a feud with Buddy Murphy, which has become one of the exciting feuds of the Red Brand because of their in-ring chemistry with one another.

Besides his dexterity in the squared circle, Black is extremely good on the mic. In fact, his intense promos from the darkroom are prime examples of the talent he possesses on the mic. Moreover, Black has a dark persona which is well-liked by the WWE Universe. If WWE utilizes Black to his full potential this year, he could become a top guy of the company, and he is certainly a deserving name to win a world title.

#1 Drew McIntyre

One of the most underused names of the RAW roster, Drew McIntyre shouldn't be a surprise on this list. The Scottish Psychopath was one of the biggest names at the start of 2019, yet he didn't manage to continue the momentum. With no major title win or feud, McIntyre had a substandard last year. He'll be aiming to change the scenario this year.

After an impressive 2018, McIntyre was anticipated to become the next big thing in the following year. While he dominated two members of The Shield in the early part of 2019, his momentum got derailed after losing to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 35. The former Intercontinental Champion joined hands with Shane McMahon, but focused more on helping Shane than furthering his own career. Right around the time he was set for a big push, he ended up on the sidelines for a couple of months due to an injury.

McIntyre was rumored to be the original choice to win the King of the Ring Tournament. He ended up bowing out in the first round to Ricochet before taking time off.

There is no denying that McIntyre has all traits to become a top champion on either brand and hence, it might be the ideal time to push him. Whether performing in the ring, talking on the mic, or having a well-built physique of a top guy, McIntyre has everything. The fans will be hoping to see him as the WWE Champion this year.
