The 4th member needs to be a generic "blank slate" who can be molded and groomed by the group. Best choice imo is a heel turned Cody Rhodes. Other choices would be Drew McIntyre, Zack Ryder, Alex Riley, or Darren Young. The use of a lower ranking fallen star serves to put over Triple H's role as the boss by highlighting the meta idea that he can "push" whomever he pleases.  |

Did you even read the entire post, or did you skim it, spot those two names and write it off? |

Sin Cara. No, I'm serious. The whole Sin Cara thing is widely known to be HHH's big pet project-gone-bust, so it makes sense that he'd want to groom it. It would also give him a stable-member who - in theory - can fly and has speed that can match Bryan, the Usos, Rollins and others; something Evolution does lack. Ditch the gimmicky light show and theatrics and give him a killer edge. Don't even have to have him talk if they don't want to. Instead, treat him like Great Muta circa 1989 JCP. Let him be the Youtube highlight reel of their matches. Do it right and he'd finally get over by the time they were ready to have him turn face against HHH. And he still has some beef with Daniel Bryan, right? www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-wt1xjNMBQ |

I specifically used Ric Flair because I was trying to make a joke about guys like them joining Evolution in his place breaking his heart. Sorry if it came off as picking. I promise, if I'm going to pick at someone's post, I'll read the whole thing.  |

Miz because in his mind he's as big a star in hollywood as Batista so who better than him to take the coveted 4th spot. "Because he's the Miz and Evolution is AWWWWWESOME!"

There's an obvious choice. I just posted this in another thread but it works here just as well:  |

Haha how is Drew McIntyre in second place? I'm gonna assume FAN is crowning him the new bad Bo Dallas.

Swerve, Daniel Bryan. He is the protege of Triple H's two best friends, after all. I honestly would not be a bit surprised to see this happen |

Because he is great in the ring, solid on the mic but thanks to a personal issue years ago is stuck in the McMahon dog house. Given the slightest push he could be at least a solid midcard guy, given something decent and sustained he could easily be a Jericho level guy. |

But his was given not only the slightest push but a fairly BIG push 5 years ago. McMahon dubbed him "The Chosen One" and he received an IC title run and plenty of mic time. And my memory isn't too amazing, but from what I remember, it was a pretty lackluster and uninspiring run, no? |

I'm not to thrilled that horsemen wannabe stable is back to be honest.
But if you do insist on bringing in a 4th member just bring back Ric Flair as a manager.
But yeah I'm hoping that this is a short term thing that lasts till Summerslam. Latest.

Drew was actually stripped of the title during his run by Teddy Long and they held a tournament to crown a new champion (Kofi) until Vince reverted the decision and gave the title back to Drew who only ended up losing it to Kofi anyway. If that tells you anything... |

Plus he has improved 500% since then, his ring work has gotten a lot better and what little he gets to do in stuff with 3MB is miles ahead what he was doing. |

You seem to have a burning desire to watch people fail, never get a chance to redeem themselves, and just be satisfied with remaining failures forever. |

Yeah, I guess I've just found his work to be super generic and bland. His 3MB stuff is good but he still gets overshadowed by Heath Slater on the mic, which then makes Drew look pretty pathetic by comparison. His promo work pre-WWE was good because he had natural charisma but WWE decided to package him as this Scottish Orton-esque figure. Lame. So anyway, really made me grow tired of the guy and not sure that can ever be repaired throughout the rest of his run. Time will tell, I guess. |
