4) Dean Ambrose
Since bursting onto the scene as part of the Shield, Dean Ambrose have provided the WWE with some of the best WWE comedic moments. From the ALS bucket challenge on Seth Rollins to the priceless reaction on his face when Seth Rollins get pelted by goo, Ambrose timing and delivery have made him a hit.
Dean Ambrose could benefit from a short run as general manager, playing a role littered with comedy as well as a serious no-nonsense general manager. Ambrose is the closest thing in today’s WWE to Stone Cold Steve Austin, who managed to strike the right balance between being incredibly funny and being a man to be feared in the ring. While Stone Cold’s general manager run came at the tail end of his career, a run for Ambrose could provide him a break from meaningless mid-card feuds and propel him into the main event.
5) Booker T
Would you rather see Booker T in a few segments a show or hear him for the entire show? Personally opinion may differ, but Booker T is a television personality first-and-foremost, and moving him away from the commentary booth may help improve the commentary, which has been one of the WWE’s weakest elements.
Booker T can fill that role as general manager when called upon, as demonstrated in his stint as the general manager of Smackdown. He was strict and impartial, and did not insert him unnecessarily into storylines. This would be useful for telling those stories as it will put the focus on the wrestlers and the general manager will be used as a vessel to explain how matches are made.
After the segment with HHH where Booker T was told he was fired, only to have it reversed, he would serve as a perfect general manager to fill the job once HHH and Stephanie McMahon are sent packing. He could also be involved in a storyline where he wrests control from them.
6) JBL
It can be argued that JBL has been even worse than Booker T on the commentary booth. He often strays from what’s happening in the ring and his petty squabbles with the rest of the commentary team have not been the most effective use of his personality.
JBL also has experience as an authority figure, as the general manager of NXT. In segments as general manager, you can tell his genuine passion in trying to protect the brand and it will be interesting to see how it translates on a bigger platform. JBL can also toe the line between being a good guy and a bad guy effectively.
7) Sting
Now that Sting has had his Wrestlemania moment, he can move on to other aspects of wrestling. During his feud with HHH, Sting barely had the opportunity to speak. Becoming the authority figure would be able to flesh out his complete character further in front of the WWE universe. Newer fans are unaware of his true career, thanks to bad storytelling from WWE leading up to the match at Wrestlemania. Getting increased exposure will allow him to grow, and we can see him serve as both the decision-maker as well as the mentor.
Prior to joining WWE, rumours about Sting potentially becoming the general manager ran rampant, and Sting succeeding WWE will bring the storyline that they began last Survivor Series full circle.
