5 Wrestlers WWE will bury in 2017

Could Randy Orton fall further down WWE’s ladder in 2017

#2 Darren Young

Unless WWE comes up with another gimmick for Darren Young, he could be pushed down the roster

While Young’s gimmick with Bob Backland was partially successful, now that the presidential election is almost over, what do you do with him?

Young has as much talent as anybody on the roster, but booking has hurt him. He cannot continually wrestle Titus O'Neal and have a future in this promotion. If there was a wrestler on the roster who could use a change in venue, and yes I mean another promotion, it might be Young.

Pairing him with Backland was a good idea, but it went nowhere. I also suspect it would be hard for him to get back involved in the tag team scene. I think you'll see less and less of him on television with the idea that maybe he goes back to NXT for a while, as the company figures out what to do with him.
