Cody Rhodes left the WWE in 2016

There comes a time when you must decide to give up and move on. There are some WWE superstars who have been mistreated in the past and they should really be thinking of moving on to greener pastures. The success Cody Rhodes has enjoyed after breaking off from WWE has become a paradigm for many WWE superstars who should follow his suit sooner than later.

Let's take a look at 5 superstars who should part ways with the WWE:


#5 Bray Wyatt

Many of us have already forgotten that Bray Wyatt was the WWE champion heading into the Wrestlemania in 2017

One simply doesn't go from entering Wrestlemania as WWE champion to a blabbering sore loser unless you are Bray Wyatt. The Eater of Worlds found himself in illogical gimmick matches after his title loss and for some strange reason, his rematch was converted into a non-title match.

As a consequence of the Superstar Shake-up, Wyatt moved to RAW but his bad luck followed. He earned a few victories over Seth Rollins but all the momentum he gained came to a screeching halt with his underwhelming program with Finn Balor.

Luckily, he could not compete with Finn Balor in what was expected to be a disastrous gimmick match. Right now, Wyatt is in a feud with Matt Hardy.

With a mystical personality and a cult following, Bray could make a name for himself in other promotions like ROH and NJPW. He could sporadically appear as an independent wrestler in multiple promotions, putting his popularity to a good use before his current status in WWE leads to a career death.

#4 Titus O'Neil

Titus is a well-built retired athlete who looked to be poised for big things in the WWE. He formed an entertaining team, the Prime Time Players, with Darren Young. His popularity peaked when he won the 2015 MEGA Dad Award for "Celebrity Dad of the Year". He was all over the social media and WWE could have used it to their advantage.

Although he did have a short reign as one-half of the WWE Tag Team champions, it was all downhill for Titus when he received a suspension for being 'playful' with the boss, Vince McMahon. This was eventually followed by a heel turn and a losing streak. He now heads a stable called 'Titus Worldwide' which includes Apollo Crews, Akira Tozawa and perhaps Dana Brooke.

Titus is still in a good shape and certainly has a few more years of wrestling left in him. He should make a move to promotions where he can achieve the heights he deserves before calling it a career. His popularity as a nice guy is sure to bring attention to any promotion he joins.

#3 Dolph Ziggler

Dolph Ziggler has proved himself many times and every time WWE has given up on him. Although he is a two-time world champion, these days his role is reduced to being a stepping stone for NXT talent. His intermittent pushes have hurt his career a lot.The last time he was in a worthwhile storyline was the long feud he had with the Miz for the Intercontinental Championship.

It resulted in a series of great matches including the one at No Mercy 2016 where Ziggler defeated the Miz for the title in a career vs. title match. However, that did not last long and Ziggler was back to his losing ways and pointless feuds.

Ziggler is a star and has a big fan following. His frustrations with WWE are well-known and he has aired his grievances on more than one occasion. Any promotion would be happy to have him as he is a long-term asset. After he hangs his wrestling boots, he could be a great manager and a trainer.

#2 The Club (Finn Balor, Karl Anderson, and Luke Gallows)

The curious case of Finn Balor is similar to that of Bray Wyatt. Although he is the longest reigning NXT champion in history and the first WWE Universal Champion, he is currently viewed as an afterthought and a failure on the main roster.

He proved his ability by delivering a 'match of the year' candidate with AJ Styles at TLC. Yet, he lost to a returning Kane in the coming weeks. On the other hand, the Good Brothers, Anderson, and Gallows debuted as a force but are now relegated to festive-themed comedy matches.

All the three men were riding the wave of momentum as Bullet Club in Japan. There were rumors of some sort of reunion when WWE trademarked the Balor Club. However, this did not happen and WWE has clearly wasted a great opportunity. All three men are talented and unless they form The Club again, a career surge seems unlikely. Their prior experience and the huge fanbase is sure to make them reclaim their cult status Japan if they were to quit WWE.

#1 Brock Lesnar

This may come as a shock. Unlike the other entrants on this list whose careers are mishandled by WWE, Lesnar is someone whose presence is detrimental to the sport. The man has openly admitted that he wrestles only for money and has no love for the business. He appears sporadically and wrestles only a few PPVs throughout the year.

Yet, he has been handed the WWE Universal Championship. The unavailability of the champion on weekly basis hurts the prestige of the title and it also takes away the opportunity from many rising stars to put a feather on their caps.

It is quite well-known that Lesnar is bound to enter a program with Roman Reigns and drop the title to him on Wrestlemania. This has had a major impact on all the matches he had (and will have) prior to Mania. His matches are often short and their outcomes are predictable. Top stars of WWE like Braun Strowman, AJ Styles, and Samoa Joe have been fed to the beast only to prepare him to be slain by the new poster boy of WWE, Roman Reigns.

After he loses to Reigns, it might be difficult for Brock to carry on as the undefeated monster and will likely fall out of flavor of the WWE universe. Given his strong objection to being a full-time wrestler, Lesnar should only remain on the roster if he agrees to put over younger talent.
