WWE has recently started using its under-utilized superstars in the referee's role on WWE TV. Earlier, Heath Slater was assigned the referee's role on RAW, and he even officiated several matches after taking over as an in-ring referee.

On the previous episode of RAW, we saw the jobber Curt Hawkins officiate the RAW tag team championship match between The Revival and the team of Bobby Roode and Chad Gable. The Revival attacked Hawkins after the match, which led to the reunion of the team of Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins after 10 years in the WWE.

This is a good way of building storylines, and I think WWE will use this formula in future as well. So, here are the 4 superstars who may be seen in the black and white jersey soon.


#4 Baron Corbin

It would be better to have Corbin officiate matches than having him fight in meaningless bouts with Elias

This week on RAW, the WWE Universe saw Baron Corbin clash with Elias perhaps for the 1000th time, and it seems like WWE does not have any plans for the Lone Wolf right now. So the creative team may try to use him as a referee in matches where the face superstars are supposed to lose.

This could help Baron Corbin develop a rivalry with a top face superstar via a proper storyline. Also, this would make sure the audience do not hear the cringe worthy promos of the Lone Wolf, which do nothing but bore.

I know, the job of the heel is to bore the audience, but the heel should have proper chemistry with the mic and the audience's reaction. Superstars like Elias, Kevin Owens, Chris Jericho, & the Miz were the prime heels of their time, yet the fans did not mind their insults and promos.

Baron Corbin has a lot to learn, and so I would have him officiate matches until he grows as a superstar.

#3 Aiden English

The Shakespeare of songs had a fine run with Rusev on SmackDown Live, both as a partner and rival. Rusev Day was one of the most popular WWE factions of all time, and it is sad to see that while Rusev is the United States Champion on SmackDown Live, Aiden English is commentating on the cruiserweight show, 205 Live.

The reason behind English's switch to 205 Live is unknown, but it would have been way better if WWE had assigned him a non-wrestling role on SmackDown Live. English has the talent to be a solid mid-card heel, but he has not received opportunities on the Land of Opportunity.

In my opinion, Vince McMahon will try to get him back on SD Live by offering him a referee's role in a United States Championship bout involving Rusev. This way, the WWE Creative will rekindle their rivalry on Tuesday nights.

#2 Tyler Breeze

Tyler Breeze has been off WWE TV because his tag team partner Fandango is currently nursing an injury, and WWE Creative has no plans for the Gorgeous One. Instead of having him wrestle on WWE Main Event, the creative team should use him as a special referee in tag team matches.

This would give Breeze something to do on RAW, and would also keep him present on every RAW episode. The NXT graduate can always make his in-ring return once Fandango returns, and given that the duo is a face tag team, the WWE can reunite them the way they reunited Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder on RAW this week.

RAW's tag team division is in dire need of popular tag teams, and if WWE seriously wants to rebuild the tag team division, they must use Tyler as a referee, have a heel tag team attack him, book Fandango's emphatic return, and give a solid secondary tag team feud to the WWE Universe.

#1 R-Truth

R-Truth has been a part of the WWE for a long time now, and the veteran has continued to entertain the fans with his mic skills, as well as in-ring talent. R-Truth recently won the Mixed Match Challenge with Carmella, and is set to enter the 2019 Royal Rumble match at #30. However, given how he has been booked on SD Live, some other superstar may take his spot in the Rumble that night.

R-Truth's character has a funny element, and possesses good sense of humor. So, the WWE can use him as a special guest referee in the throwaway matches which take place on SmackDown Live every week.

This would provide the fans some comic relief during the 2 hours show, along with having the potential of giving R-Truth a good storyline on SmackDown Live.
