15 – The Miz – The A-lister would have had a higher spot on this list if him and Damien Mizdow didn’t lose the Tag Team Championship on Monday. He’s probably looking at an under-card match with Mizdow to get the latter over at WrestleMania. After that, Miz will likely fade into the mid-card.

14 – Bad News Barrett – It was terrific seeing BNB back in action a few days ago. The crowd didn’t know how to react to him, however, since he faced a fellow heel in Cesaro. Barrett has always been a heel, so could this be him finally switching to a face? If so, he’ll have the crowd support behind him as he sits towards the top of the mid-card.

13 – Big Show – I don’t care about Big Show’s character. You don’t care about Big Show’s character. Every staff member on this website doesn’t care about Big Show’s character. Your grandmother doesn’t even care about Big Show’s character. The only opinions that matters is WWE’s, and they clearly still do and continues to keep him in a relevant position on the card with this Roman Reigns feud. It’s setting up for him to be a big player in the Royal Rumble. He won’t win, but he’ll be among the final ones remaining.

12 – Damien Mizdow – Mizdow is a mid-card comedy act at the moment. The crowds love him and when he breaks away from Miz, he’s going to get a huge pop. After that, we’ll need to see how much WWE believes in him. He’ll have the crowd behind him, so we’ll see what happens.

11 – The Usos – The tag team division has been all about The Usos this year. They won the Tag Team Championship early on in the year and closed out 2014 by winning them back. They’re by far the best tag team in WWE and no duo can reach their level. 2015 should treat them very well.
