Throughout the history of WWE, the promotion has never shied away from incorporating the supernatural element in its storylines and characters. WWE, after all, aims to not just limit itself to wrestling matches but, in the words of Vince McMahon, provide "Sports Entertainment".
There have been several memorable characters inspired by the supernatural theme, and multiple WWE Superstars have introduced an alter ego of themselves to spice things up.
Some prime examples of the same on the current WWE roster include Finn Balor who transforms himself into The Demon King, and Bray Wyatt, who has revealed a sinister alter ego of himself, The Fiend. Most recently, Alexa Bliss shocked the fans by tapping into her dark side as well, reminding everyone that anything is possible.
With that in mind, let's take a look at five more current WWE Superstars who could soon introduce their own alter egos. Be sure to comment down and let us know which of them would you like to see the most.
#5 Liv Morgan (WWE SmackDown)
Liv Morgan started her main roster career in 2017 as part of The Riott Squad alongside Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan. The trio was popular but never achieved any major accomplishments in WWE and was broken up in 2019.
After being absent from WWE TV for a few months, new vignettes of Morgan's return started airing in December 2019. With a completely new look, there were teases of a darker side of Liv Morgan getting unleashed, with many even speculating that she would join hands with "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt.
However, none of that happened and she returned as Lana's ex-partner during the latter's wedding segment with Bobby Lashley on RAW. The bizarre angle was abruptly scrapped and Morgan has since been struggling to make a mark in the women's division.
While WWE did not go ahead with the teased dark character of Liv Morgan, we might see her introduce that in the near future as her alter-ego. WWE needs to invest in young talent and give them something new to try.
#4 Aleister Black (WWE SmackDown)
One of the most underrated superstars on WWE's current roster is Aleister Black. The former NXT Champion had a great run back on the Black and Gold brand of the company. In fact, due to his supernatural satanic gimmick, many even considered him to be a possible successor of WWE legend The Undertaker.
The Dutch Destroyer moved to the main roster in 2019 and while WWE protected him heavily in his first year, his stock went tumbling down in 2020. While helping Rey Mysterio during his feud with Seth Rollins and Murphy in mid-2020, Black was driven straight into the side of the steel steps by Rollins and Murphy, injuring him severely in kayfabe.
After a brief break, he returned on RAW and turned heel by attacking Kevin Owens. He again disappeared from WWE TV in late 2020 until recently when his return vignettes with a new gimmick started airing on SmackDown. A few days ago, Aleister Black posted the following photo on his social media, leading to speculation that he could debut this new look on WWE TV soon.
Someone like Black could be a perfect candidate to have an alter-ego that he taps into. With incredible striking skills and great character work, he has the potential to be a megastar and hopefully a future world champion in WWE.
#3 Jeff Hardy (WWE RAW)
Former WWE Champion Jeff Hardy is one of the most legendary names in the history of the company who is still an active in-ring competitor. While he is most famously known for his time in WWE alongside his brother Matt Hardy as The Hardy Boyz, he has also had a lengthy run in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling.
During his time there, Jeff Hardy introduced the wrestling world to his alter ego, Willow aka Willow the Wisp. With a unique mask, umbrella, and trench coat, Willow became a popular character. However, the origins of this gimmick date way back to before Jeff Hardy even joined WWE.
In 1997, Jeff and Matt Hardy established their own wrestling promotion, OMEGA Championship Wrestling, and the former won the New Frontiers Championship there as Willow the Wisp.
During an interview with BT Sport last year, Jeff Hardy revealed his desire to bring Willow to WWE and even teased a potential feud against "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt.
“Willow is my go-to wrestling persona. So, man, that’s another dream of mine that I would like to do before I’m done — To bring Willow into the WWE Universe and see what happens. I just have a strange feeling that something crazy cool could happen between Willow and The Fiend," said Jeff Hardy.
The Charismatic Enigma has had an incredible run in WWE and has achieved a lot. Introducing his alter-ego Willow to the WWE Universe could lead to him having a final top run as a singles competitor.
#2 Dominik Mysterio (WWE SmackDown)
Dominik Mysterio, son of the legendary WWE Superstar and former world champion Rey Mysterio, has started his journey to take forward the legacy of the Mysterio family in professional wrestling. He first appeared on WWE TV as a kid during his father's feud with Eddie Guerrero.
Years later, Dominik started appearing alongside Rey Mysterio on WWE TV in 2019. For over a year, he appeared as a side character, helping his father in his storylines, but WWE was slowly sowing the seeds for his eventual debut.
After a heated rivalry against Seth Rollins and Murphy, Dominik Mysterio had his debut WWE match at SummerSlam 2020 against Rollins and impressed fans with his performance and wrestling skills.
Recently, at WrestleMania Backlash, Rey and Dominik Mysterio won the SmackDown Tag Team Championships. They created history by becoming the first father-son pair in WWE history to win the tag team titles together. There has been so much talk of Dominik taking over the mask from his father and competing under it.
While WWE could go down that route, another interesting idea could be to let Dominik introduce his alter ego - Prince Mysterio. There could be a storyline that could force him to take extreme measures and transform into Prince Mysterio to save the name of his family and the entire Lucha culture.
#1 Asuka (WWE RAW)
One of the most talented superstars on WWE's current women's division is Asuka. Starting her WWE career in 2015, she had a dominant run as the NXT Women's Champion. She later received a massive push upon her arrival on the main roster as she won the inaugural women's Royal Rumble match in 2018.
While Asuka has had a decorated career on the main roster, winning the RAW and SmackDown Women's Championship as well as the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, she hasn't been able to replicate her dominant NXT run that fans absolutely loved.
Every now and then, WWE Universe keeps asking the question - what could WWE do to take Asuka to the next level? Well, the answer could be right there if one explores her past.
During her time in Japan as Kana, Asuka used to wear horrifying face paint that was enough to scare any opponent. WWE could probably bring that back and introduce it as Asuka's darker alter ego. There are no doubts over her supreme wrestling skills, but her character work could be taken to another level through this.
