I still have high hopes for Killian Dain, a repackage would be good for him. Sanity was never really that over anyway, even in NXT.

I think it's Brock for FOX and keeps him off the same show as mini Brock aka Lars

Can't wait until they put the Smackdown belt on him and it disappears for months at a time while we wait for one of Brock's two good matches per year!

Although I meant another "hottest free agent" act or another "chosen one" that we haven't heard of.

Having said that, it's gotta be Reigs. Hoping for a Batista type run when he switched brands. Although he really doesn't have anyone to feud with.

Yep. Lesnar. But he already donned blue.

Unless it's Kenny Omega, I think it has to be Roman. Who else could it be?

Brock wouldn't make any sense because he never appears on TV.

If it's Roman, I hope to hell they're finally turning him heel, because the crowd is going to crap all over him when his music hits if he's the big acquisition.

Yeah do that. Better feud with Kofi as a heel. For sure he'll be pushed to the moon asap.

Please keep Roman away from smackdown, don't need him stinking up the joint on the blue brand as well.

I hope its Braun so they actually give him something to do (turn him heel, have him go after Kofi Kingston down the road when the time is right).

There's probably a pretty good chance that Owens turns on Kofi tonight and is his first feud.

Roman could be very good in the right circumstances. Imagine him in New Japan.

So I asked myself...what is the absolute worst-case scenario for this announcement?

It's gonna be Corbin. The man who ended Kurt Angle's career.

Oh he's a good wrestler and if he was in bullet club he'd be the ideal #2 to Jay White but he's basically just that, a #2, a good upper mid card heel.

He's no where near a main event talent. He also should be doing 10-15 minute short, hard hitting matches instead of thse marathon matches which really don't suit his style. Regardless Vince will still do it and the fans have to suffer through it.

Guys stop. Say what you want about reigns the character but as a worker he's certainly a main eventer. Too much salt.
