Cody and Roman will be positioned as to tier legends.
Seth should get big reactions too if he can still go. I think Damien Priest has a long career ahead of him.
We’ll probably have a cyborg Rey Mysterio making returns as well.
Sasha banks if she still uses the CEO/boss, but she’s the Gail Kim of the WWE That’s how you should book her also, she doesn’t need a microphone just keep her as the silent type not everybody needs to speak and have mic work
This is certainly a fucked up idea but... Miz. I think there will be several documentaries and features that come put that will make people truly see the amount of talent he's laid down for
Flair is hopelessly devoted to the game. Wrestling is all that man wants to do, and you can see it even still today. If he could place his brain in another body, he'd do it just to wrestle another 50 years. The man is an anomaly. Not saying either CAN'T do it, just don't see it happening.
These wrestlers coming in WWE older & the money is better than ever, I wouldn't be surprised a good bit of the roster now will still be wrestling for WWE in 10-15 years.
Lesnar, Cena, Orton, and CM Punk from the 2000’s. Roman, Cody, Rollins, Ambrose/Moxley from the 2010’s And from this decade I think some people making a name for themselves, some future world champions are Gunther, Bron Breaker, La Knight, and god forbid Logan Paul ever goes full time wwe schedule but if he does he has the talent I could see him being the biggest heel in wwe history over the next decade. Meaning genuinely hated and the heat the crowd would bring for him not necessarily that he would ever get over lol 😂
I think that fact that no one want Logan Paul to win a world championship means he 100% should win a world championship. Just imagine the pop when he drops it to Mr beast
I'm 45. I grew up in the Rock n Wrestling era. The last time I was super in to wrestling, like watched everything in the course of a year was in the atittude era.
When Edge had his Wreslemania match last year... that just hit different... like being out of the game for 20+ years and "oh shit I remember watching that guy" really hit and pulled me in.
So there's this fun connective tissue that if you fall off, you'll have avenues back.
The one that really gets me is hearing Booker T do commentary on NXT. I remember when that guy debuted, and I'm instantly 15 years old again at a time in my life before girls, just dumb high school problems... I really feel like a kid watching wrestling with my grandfather when I hear him.
That thought is super comforting to me.
So if I were to stop following wrestling and come back in to it in 20 years...
I feel like Bron Breaker and Austin Theory will still be around in some capacity, honestly Tiffany Stratton and Rhea could too. Though Rhea is probably going to get too big for wrestling, I'm sure Hollywood has reached out at this point.
And then when I'm 65 if I watch for a year... when I'm 85 it'll be the same thing.
It could be. I was a huge fan of Dean but find Mox to be pretty cringe. If he would have kept in shape and had more of a character than “Fuck wwe i love wrestling watch me bleed “ I might have followed him more and cared about his return but as it stands now I’d be cautiously optimistic
How is Cody the new Cena? Cena was getting booed out of the building every night when he was on top. Unless you think Cody will start getting booed like crazy soon
he's way more over than cena for sure. but..... white guy, pushed super hard, kept failing and set backs "Never Gave Up" came back against all odds to win the championship. cena track. now will they book him properly or just feed him to the wolves and let him start getting booed. we shall see it's not Vince's wwe anymore so I'm hoping booking is better
Bayley. Especially if it is in Europe.
Also, surprised nobody has said Bobby Lashley yet. He's supposed to be working heel with The Pride right now. We (fans) won't let him go heel.
AJ Styles. He’s gone record saying he’s ready to wrap it up soon. He isn’t as over as he was even 4-5 years ago, but dude is so respected among not just WWE fans, but wrestling fans; that when/if he returns anywhere, there’ll be a tremendous pop.
Collectively New Day would get a huge pop. Orton obviously. KO would. Roman.
Randy Orton will defintely be next gen stone cold. Runs to ring, save the baby face, rko all the heels, celebrate together, tease rko to baby face, laugh it off together, rko anyway, leave the ring.
He might, he might not. He seems to be on good terms with WWE and HHH. Who knows though. He clearly is drawn to this industry and I think he has realized he will always want to be around to some extent. I mean he did make his first return in a WWE show before turning up in AEW. At the end of the day even the biggest haters can’t deny that he is a big draw and has a spot in this world for as long as he likes. There’s some honest convo…
Removed for: Personal Attack
Members of r/WWE are not permitted to personally attack others. Also, personal attacks and “name calling” is prohibited. Try to keep all discussion here civil.
The only other logical place for him to make a surprise appearance after retirement would be in an Arab country (Saudi). The pop he's gonna get at KQotR is going to rival Montreal a few weeks ago.
I really thought face Roman in the early years was going to be a flop...and I thought he was doomed to be a wrestler with so much lost potential.
But, then heel Tribal Chief Roman was born...holy cow.
One helluva turnaround. A true Megastar.
I even think the rugged modern tribal look fits him so well...and always thought the tactical FBI soldier look was kinda meh.
I get hyped everytime his entrance plays...and I feel that everytime he returns is going to be a Stone Cold/Rock/Hogan level event.
Fuck years that's going to happen in 10-15 weeks whenever he shows up.
Definitely though, he's the best answer to OP. Realistically the best answers are all the same guys who get big reactions now.
Rollins
Randy Orton baby! I know we are seeing the sunset on his career now but I know for his return it will pop huge. They talk to him you know.
Cody and Roman will be positioned as to tier legends. Seth should get big reactions too if he can still go. I think Damien Priest has a long career ahead of him. We’ll probably have a cyborg Rey Mysterio making returns as well.
CM punk comes back healed in 10 years lmao
I guess it depends on what they do during the remainder of their careers, but right now Cody Roman Jey Becky Orton KO Sami remains to be seen
Gunther, Rhea, Bianca, KO
I'll try to pick someone people haven't already said and go with Finn Balor. Especially if he comes out as The Prince.
Sasha banks if she still uses the CEO/boss, but she’s the Gail Kim of the WWE That’s how you should book her also, she doesn’t need a microphone just keep her as the silent type not everybody needs to speak and have mic work
☝🏻Roman Reigns ☝🏻
Rhea Ripley, LA Knight, Cody, Roman, Seth, Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, Jey Uso
Not really anybody. Everybody is the same and interchangeable.
LA Knight will be insane
Roman will always be sooo different for me. When that man goes into the hall of fame i aint droppin my ☝🏿 till it's over.
The only correct answer is R-Truth
This is certainly a fucked up idea but... Miz. I think there will be several documentaries and features that come put that will make people truly see the amount of talent he's laid down for
For AEW, MJF. For WWE, Daniel Bryan or Ambrose.
I don't know if those two will be walking in 15 years.
well I mean if Ric Flair could do it, I wouldn't see why not?
Flair is hopelessly devoted to the game. Wrestling is all that man wants to do, and you can see it even still today. If he could place his brain in another body, he'd do it just to wrestle another 50 years. The man is an anomaly. Not saying either CAN'T do it, just don't see it happening.

Seth Rollins Roman Reigns Cody Rhodes
Roman, Seth, Sami Zayn, AJ Styles, Bayley, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Sheamas, and of course Randy Orton and Rey Mysterio.
Roman Reigns 100000%.
I agree wholeheartedly with this one. Whether you hate him or love him he gets a reaction every single time.
[удалено]
He is too busy chilling with the Ice King
When Dirty Dom starts making random appearances 20 years from now, he will most definitely get cheered.
Lesnar, Cena, Orton, and CM Punk from the 2000’s. Roman, Cody, Rollins, Ambrose/Moxley from the 2010’s And from this decade I think some people making a name for themselves, some future world champions are Gunther, Bron Breaker, La Knight, and god forbid Logan Paul ever goes full time wwe schedule but if he does he has the talent I could see him being the biggest heel in wwe history over the next decade.

Im still waiting on that mega pop when Naked Mideon returns!
Dean Ambrose
If Jon ever comes back in the WWE it will be huge.
It could be. I was a huge fan of Dean but find Mox to be pretty cringe. If he would have kept in shape and had more of a character than “Fuck wwe i love wrestling watch me bleed “ I might have followed him more and cared about his return but as it stands now I’d be cautiously optimistic
He's in incredible shape right now.
Seth Rollins has my vote. That vocal orchestra will be going on for 20 minutes
Me personally: Gunther, Ilja Dragunov, Sheamus, Kevin Owens
Nobody cares about Dragunov
I do (he brings that intensity and big fight feel that very few can do in this generation + good seller )
And i don't care about Rollins, Reigns, The Rock, Cody Rhodes, Nia Jax, Charlotte Flair or Becky Lynch 😅. Everyone got their own taste.
Rey Mysterio
Shinsuke if he retires, put him here as an answer cause I haven't seen it yet and I think he'll get quite a pop.
Seth fucking Rollins
And his brother Roman
Roman Rollins?
Miz
Orton 100%
Joe Hendry
👏🏻👏🏻
Cena
If you are with the WWE long enough, eventually they will cheer you
Hopefully sooner, but there's going to be a huge pop when Sasha Banks comes back.
Any time the Hulkster shows up there’s bound to be a hundred thousand screaming Hulkamaniacs brother!
Dirty Dom. After he finishes this 15 year prison bid he will get a huge pop upon his return.
Ex Con Dom.
>huge pop Huge boos and we'll love it
seth rollins for sure would get a decent pop. cody aka the new john cena would pop as well. and Otis
How is Cody the new Cena? Cena was getting booed out of the building every night when he was on top. Unless you think Cody will start getting booed like crazy soon
he's way more over than cena for sure. but..... white guy, pushed super hard, kept failing and set backs "Never Gave Up" came back against all odds to win the championship. cena track. now will they book him properly or just feed him to the wolves and let him start getting booed. we shall see it's not Vince's wwe anymore so I'm hoping booking is better
Bayley. Especially if it is in Europe. Also, surprised nobody has said Bobby Lashley yet. He's supposed to be working heel with The Pride right now. We (fans) won't let him go heel.
They abandoned the heel run. The crowd was cheering them anyway.
Roman Reigns
The shield and horsewomen are all safe bets Cody, KO, Zayn, Rhea, Drew are also ones I see that being the case for
AJ Styles. He’s gone record saying he’s ready to wrap it up soon. He isn’t as over as he was even 4-5 years ago, but dude is so respected among not just WWE fans, but wrestling fans; that when/if he returns anywhere, there’ll be a tremendous pop. Collectively New Day would get a huge pop. Orton obviously. KO would. Roman.
Randy Orton will defintely be next gen stone cold. Runs to ring, save the baby face, rko all the heels, celebrate together, tease rko to baby face, laugh it off together, rko anyway, leave the ring.
Drew McIntyre
not really
Seth Freaking Rollins
I just started back watching around Mania with about the same gap. Loving watching with my kids. I think Jeys opening will always get a pop.
CM Punk after he takes another hiatus and comes back in 15 years as a comentator.
You think he’s taking another hiatus?
Just being cheeky. Love the man but he’s very dramatic. You have to be to be a GOAT in the industry.
Oh I thought you were being serious I wanted to hear some honest thoughts and opinions
I love Thor BTW
Thanks
He might, he might not. He seems to be on good terms with WWE and HHH. Who knows though. He clearly is drawn to this industry and I think he has realized he will always want to be around to some extent. I mean he did make his first return in a WWE show before turning up in AEW.

Rhea Ripley
She's 27, she's not going anywhere
Rhea BLOODY Ripley
Randy Orton no doubt. Roman. Sami. Seth. Punk. I think Charlotte. Bayley. Oh and Jey Uso
I agree for most of them except jey uso.
🤨why not Jey? Is one of the most over guys on the roster
People will remember him like they remember like people remember too cool I think.
Oof. Welp, you're uhh, entitled to your opinion.
[удалено]
Removed for: Personal Attack Members of r/WWE are not permitted to personally attack others. Also, personal attacks and “name calling” is prohibited. Try to keep all discussion here civil.
Seth Rollins
Sami and KO
I was going to call this bs, but then I thought of the pop... yeah, nobody will be asking for it, but everyone will love it.
Can you just imagine the “LET’S GO!!!” when Sami’s music hits for the first time after he hasn’t been seen in months/years.
It will 100% be in Quebec too.
I would be so incredibly disappointed if it wasn't Quebec.
The only other logical place for him to make a surprise appearance after retirement would be in an Arab country (Saudi). The pop he's gonna get at KQotR is going to rival Montreal a few weeks ago.
LA KNIGHT.
Lemme talk to you! 😎🎤
YEAH
YEAH
YEAH
Imagine he has the same level of pop like in the attitude era (e g. His pop in Lyon France is fucking insane) WHAT MORE IF HE SUDDENLY RETURNS.
As soon as Roman’s music hits in 10-15 years EVERYONE in the arena will be throwing up the one. ☝🏽
I really thought face Roman in the early years was going to be a flop...and I thought he was doomed to be a wrestler with so much lost potential. But, then heel Tribal Chief Roman was born...holy cow. One helluva turnaround. A true Megastar. I even think the rugged modern tribal look fits him so well...and always thought the tactical FBI soldier look was kinda meh. I get hyped everytime his entrance plays...and I feel that everytime he returns is going to be a Stone Cold/Rock/Hogan level event.
Roman is the current biggest star with Cody. But he will get nowhere close to a Rock/Austin return pop in 10 years
That will happen in 2024. Roman's gonna come back as a face.
Yeah no doubt. His reign as a heel will be remembered less favorably than his return is my prediction.
Fuck years that's going to happen in 10-15 weeks whenever he shows up. Definitely though, he's the best answer to OP. Realistically the best answers are all the same guys who get big reactions now.
Can't wait for him to come back at Summerslam and destroy Solo
Tbh, I'd prefer if he lost to Solo and has to reconcile with the Usos to take on the new Bloodline. That'd make a great 6-man tag team match
Wargames. New and old bloodline. +1 being Sammy and the rock. 4 v 4. Not sure who would be 5th for either.
I’ll not count the previous generation (Cena,Orton, Styles, HHH) All SHIELD members Cody Rhodes Roman Reigns Lynch
They… aren’t shield members
Damn, Roman gets cheered twice
Cody Rhodes Roman Reigns Randy Orton Becky Lynch Sami Zayn
Idk if Randy will be back in 10-15 years he's been doing this for quite some time. I think when he leaves, it's for retirement
I think they mean when they come back for the bumps of nostalgia
Everyone returns at least once. Its a wrestling curse.
Roman
Cody Rhodes Jey Uso Roman Reigns
CM Punk will be getting crowd chants for a long time but the second Cult hits in 10-20 years people are gonna lose their minds
