Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.

Some worked for many years, whereas some are still working. However, there's always an end to someone's career, and we all know that in the WWE, injuries ended many careers.

Some WWE superstars are still working for the company but are expected to retire in the upcoming months or years. Here is a list of 7 WWE superstars who will retire soon and who can replace them.

#7 Kane

Kane of 90s — Kane has been one of the ever-presents in WWE

Kane is 46 years old, and it seems like he can still wrestle for few more years, but he is also a mayor of the Knox County. He is working as a part-timer, and because of his responsibilities for the board, he could retire soon.

Who can replace him: Finn Balor

Finn Balor may not look as a replacement for Kane, but his "Demon King" persona is very similar to the Kane of 90s.

Finn Balor is currently a babyface, and he is playing his character with perfection. Most of the time Kane played a negative role in the company, but we also saw the good side of him when he was in Team Hell No.

Balor has two personalities, and it will be better if he uses his dark side to become someone like the Kane we saw in the 90s.

#6 The Big Show

From the past few months, we haven't seen The Big Show fighting in the WWE ring. He worked hard on his body and has kept himself fit for wrestling.

He is such a kind of wrestler no one would generally want to interlope with. At the moment he is 46 years old and will retire in the next few years.

Who can replace him: Braun Strowman

Braun Strowman and The Big Show's body structure is similar to each other as both wrestlers dominate over their opponents.

Last year, Big Show and Braun Strowman confronted each other several times and once during their match, the ring also collapsed.

Strowman is one of the best wrestlers in the company and there is no doubt that he can replace Big Show.

#5 The Rock

The Rock is also one of the highest-paid actors in the Hollywood. We haven't seen him in the WWE for a long time but now he is expected to return at the SmackDown 1000th episode this year.

Who can replace him: Roman Reigns

There might be some fans who will disagree with this, but we have to admit that there are many similarities between The Rock and Roman Reigns.

Both are from the same family (Anoaʻi) and also have a similar body physique.

Regardless of Roman's bad promo skills, he is constantly improving on the mic. He works well in the ring and we can say that he will replace The Rock in upcoming years.

At one point of his career, The Rock was also hated by a majority of fans but later on, he became one of the most beloved WWE wrestlers of all time.

#4 John Cena

16-time WWE Champion — Cena is no stranger with the WWE as he helped the company to rise in their bad time

For the past few months, Cena hasn't been able to give much time to the WWE to work on his projects in the Hollywood. Cena is no stranger with the WWE as he helped the company to rise in their bad time.

Who can replace him: Seth Rollins

Cena is one of the best face wrestlers of this era and to replace him WWE needs a good babyface.

Currently, no one on Raw is more over with the fans than Seth Rollins. Both wrestlers work quite well inside the ring and are performing the role of a babyface.

At the moment, Cena is spending more time in Hollywood and may retire in the coming years. Fans will not get annoyed if Seth Rollins replaces him.

#3 AJ Styles

Current WWE Champion — AJ Styles has hinted at retirement a couple of times

On many occasions, WWE Champion AJ Styles has talked about his retirement and said that he will retire in the coming years.

Who can replace him: EC3 (Ethan Carter 3)

Recently the former TNA/ Impact Wrestling star EC3 rejoined the WWE's NXT brand. He has been a part of this company before, but the WWE released him in 2013. After that, he joined Impact Wrestling where improved his mic and in-ring skills and now has become one of the fan favourite wrestlers.

EC3's mic skills are quite good, and he also does a good job in the ring. Styles also do the same thing, and therefore, it is right to say that EC3 can replace the Styles in the company.

#2 Triple H

Many WWE fans consider Triple H as one of the best heel wrestlers of all time. From time to time he shocked the world by doing the unexpected things and has proved that anything can happen in the WWE. He is a natural heel, and in spite of this, has managed to get cheers from the fans.

Who can replace him: Kevin Owens or Tommaso Ciampa

At the moment both Kevin Owens and Tommaso Ciampa are one of the best heel wrestlers in the company.

Owens does an excellent work on the mic as well as on the ring too whereas Tommaso Ciampa reminds us about the Attitude Era. He also gave a 5-star classic match during his feud with Johnny Gargano.

Currently, he is in the NXT and one thing is for sure that after debuting to the main roster, he will dominate over everybody just like Triple H.

#1 The Undertaker

His career is going to end in some time — His career is going to end in sometime

For nearly 30 years, The Undertaker has been working for WWE, and it is known that the Undertaker will retire in the coming few months. His character is also very different and quite scary.

Who can replace him: Aleister Black

Many fans may consider Bray Wyatt as the next Undertaker, but the way WWE is booking him, it seems almost impossible to happen.

At this time if there is any top star of the NXT, then it's Aleister Black. Just like The Undertaker, his gimmick also involves the darkness and a long entrance.

Black's character is also similar to The Undertaker, and because of this, he can take the replace The Undertaker in the next few years.
