5 RAW Superstars who could Replace Baron Corbin as General Manager

The current Acting General Manager of RAW, Baron Corbin seems to have just a handful of days left it his position with the former US Champion having to put his job on the line against Braun Strowman at TLC. A victory, however, would hand him the job on a permanent basis.

With the implications of a Universal title match attached to this match, it seems unlikely that Corbin will be able to save his job, with Strowman determined to get his hands on Brock Lesnar.

This will leave the GM role unavailable, despite the fact that Kurt Angle still has not been fired yet by the RAW Commissioner Stephanie McMahon. Several names have entered the conversation in recent weeks, with former Raw Women's Champion, Alexa Bliss being a strong favourite.

With Corbin potentially being replaced soon, we look at the 5 superstars who could well fit in the General Manager role on Monday nights -

#5 Kurt Angle

The most likely superstar who could replace Baron Corbin

Kurt Angle, as mentioned above, is still the permanent General Manager of RAW but he has been forcefully sent on a vacation by the RAW Commissioner. With RAW clean sweeping SmackDown at Survivor Series, it looked like Corbin would finally take over the flagship show but as revealed on the last episode of RAW, he still has to pass one more test at TLC. The Lone Wolf is likely to lose that match and, as a result, his position to none other than his superior, Kurt Angle.

Perhaps, WWE will not hand over the position to Kurt Angle that easily but the WWE Creative will have a feud between Corbin and Angle with the winner being handed control of Monday Night RAW. Kurt Angle has had quite an underwhelming return to the WWE as he has regularly disappointed the WWE Universe with his botchy mic skills and slow in-ring work. So, in my opinion, WWE should opt for a fresher face.

#4 Shawn Michaels

Michaels is always fun to watch on WWE TV

Shawn Michaels made his emphatic in-ring return at WWE Crown Jewel where he outshone all the other three legends involved in the DX vs Brothers of Destruction match. Michaels possesses fantastic mic skills and can play the role of a heel as well as a face equally. He betters Kurt Angle in each and every aspect of the game and could easily be the best replacement for Baron Corbin.

Also, Michaels introduction as the RAW General Manager could help WWE increase their viewership numbers since the Heartbreak Kid is extremely popular amongst the WWE Universe. HBK could also participate in matches once or even twice a year as the General Manager and can also lead team RAW at Survivor Series in the future as the GM. There's no reason why Shawn Michaels should not be considered as a replacement for the current GM Baron Corbin.

#3 Titus O' Neil

One name which has been absent from WWE Programming but that is always present at WWE events is Titus O Neil. The former Prime Time Player has had limited in-ring appearances this year and was a part of one of the most famous botches of the year at the Greatest Royal Rumble pay-per-view in April.

He has shifted into a manager's role over the last few years and was the leader of the faction 'Titus Worldwide' which consisted of Apollo Crews, Akira Tozawa and had Dana Brooke as its statistician.

The WWE probably don't consider him as a regular performer who could work matches every week anymore, so handing him the position of GM could be a great way to give him some time on television. O Neil is also a face, which could freshen things up on RAW, where things have become a bit stale as of late.

#2 Trish Stratus

Trish Stratus can sratisfy RAW's atmosphere!

The WWE Hall of Famer, Trish Stratus recently made her return to Monday Night RAW to participate in the first ever all women's pay-per-view WWE Evolution. She still possesses the same catchy mic skills she always did and can also perform well in the ring. With SmackDown Live opting for a female General Manager, the WWE would love to have a female GM for Monday Night RAW as well.

Trish Stratus seems to be the perfect option for this as she has been the face of the company's female division for quite a while and can also take RAW to newer heights with her appearances. Her interactions with Stephanie McMahon and Ronda Rousey would make RAW a must watch once again as it would bring some new energy to the show which has been missing for the past few weeks. Stratus is only second to this superstar on the list of candidates to replace Corbin...

#1 Alexa Bliss

Alexa Bliss seems to be the perfect superstar to replace Baron Corbin

Well, it is no secret that Alexa Bliss is currently injured and amongst the top superstars when it comes to working on the mic. She can play with the crowd, she can bury any superstar and she can also work well on the commentator's desk. Bliss has been very successful inside the ring and a lot of its credit goes to her mic skills. But Little Miss Bliss is reportedly dealing with multiple injuries and may take time before making her in-ring return.

If Alexa Bliss plays the role of the RAW General Manager it will limit her in-ring appearances which would extend her wrestling career as well. Plus, she was spotted having discussions with the RAW Commissioner Stephanie McMahon during the build-up to Survivor Series and also she led team RAW to the victory in the 5-on-5 match. This makes her the prime candidate to become the next General Manager of RAW.
