With the Superstar Shake-up last month we have seen many new and established superstars find a new home within the WWE.
While established superstars such as AJ Styles and Samoa Joe instantly found new and improved feuds on their new brands, some other superstars have not been so lucky.
On the other hand, a few superstars who are well established and currently on the same rosters on which they were last year are still finding it difficult to find the right direction to move to the top.
In this article, we look at four superstars who are currently directionless on the main roster, and where they should be heading in order to get back up on their feet.
Feel free to share your views and opinions on the superstars in the comments section below!
#4 EC3
EC3’s arrival to the main roster was nothing less than grand. Promos for his move were aired on the WWE Network for weeks before his arrival.
EC3 became a popular superstar in NXT and was destined to hold a title or two in the developmental brand. However, he was moved to the main roster before he could touch gold in NXT.
When he arrived on the main roster, fans were sure that he would receive a major push, as he had the looks and physique Vince McMahon runs after for his promotion. Instead, he now battles on Main Event in badly booked matches which have seen him completely lose value.
WWE needs to revamp the superstar before he becomes nothing more than a filler or enhancement talent in the eyes of the WWE Universe, similar to Curt Hawkins, Jinder Mahal, and Mojo Rawley.
The best way WWE can do this right now is to align the superstar with an established heel such as Baron Corbin or Bobby Lashley and build him up from there for a future singles run.
#3 Liv Morgan
Liv Morgan was the heart of The Riott Squad, but she was ripped out from the faction as a result of the Superstar Shake-up.
Liv moved from Raw to SmackDown in a move that surprised many and has not been seen on the blue brand yet. She is a good wrestler who has usually worked better in tag team action instead of individual matches, and she needs to find a new direction on SmackDown.
If WWE wants to take their pink haired and blue-tongued superstar seriously, then they need to push the superstar immediately, as she has the attention of the WWE Universe currently.
One of the best ways to do so would be to add her to Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House. She could prove to be a great addition to the crazy faction, as she is a great entertainer.
Apart from that, WWE is in dire need of mixed male and female factions onscreen currently.
#2 Bobby Lashley
Known as ‘The Real Deal’ and ‘The Dominator’ for a long time, Bobby Lashley’s return to WWE has hit many speedbumps.
Whenever it seems like Lashley is going to take off and become one of the top superstars of the company, he is hit by a blow which finds him in the mid-card again and again.
While his reign as the Intercontinental Champion was quite decent, he hasn’t been prominent since losing the title and continues to fight in useless tag team matches.
While it seems like WWE has no direction for The All Mighty at the moment, and are just keeping him in the loop, for now, they could take him in the right direction soon.
WWE is going to have another pay-per-view event in Saudi Arabia on June 7, and they could use the superstar's popularity from the past to make him a major crowd puller at the event.
Giving Lashley a dream match against stars like Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, or even The Undertaker would surely boost his rating and value in the company.
#1 Braun Strowman
Braun Strowman was arguably the newest rising star in WWE not many months ago. He was destined for great things, and with the WWE Universe behind him, not a single person doubted that he would be the Universal Champion by the end of 2018.
Yet, here we are hitting the middle of 2019, and Strowman is not even in the United States Championship picture. He started what seemed like a feud with Samoa Joe for the championship, but it was watered down in just a few hours.
Strowman has found himself at the bottom again due to his own faults. He reportedly has a bad attitude backstage and has messed up many promos and spots for the creative to give him a push again.
With Strowman in the Money in the Ladder match for a chance to win the briefcase for the second consecutive time, we believe he won’t be making it this time.
Instead, WWE should now definitely put a mid-card title around his waist and test him out as a champion once and for all before seeing if he has the potential to hold the top title, or if he will trip and fall to the bottom once again.
