In the early days of NXT as a brand, the days when Seth Rollins wore trunks, Leo Kruger was a rich guy who lived in Africa, and Jinder Mahal kept showing up, the son of Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, Richie, was making regular appearances. However, by 2011, injuries had forced him into an early retirement.
Had that not happened, how far do you think he could have gotten? Would he be mixing it up with the Shield boys? Would he and Kevin Owens be feuding?
Just a hypothetical pondering to get our minds off other things.

Anyone can go as far as WWE want them to go.

He and Charlotte would have become a couple just for the hilarity.

I'd say he'd start out at Neville's current level of the card, but then he'd get bumped down to Jack Swagger's current level once the big Indy names start showing up.

Who knows, I didn't think he was particularly good but he may have found something that worked and/or shifted it up a gear.
Actually thinking about his old style face act wasn't going that well but he seemed to be a favourite with management so he probably would have stolen Bo's push and heel turn.
After that I'm guessing he'd have drifted around the lower end of the main roster, probably in a tag-team.

Anyone can go as far as WWE want them to go. As proven by Roman Reigns and Batista on his comeback. |

He and Charlotte would have become a couple just for the hilarity. The only way to end it is a match between Richie and Ric Flair, Charlotte as special guest referee. |

He'd be about in the same spot as Neville or Stardust.

Richie wins Naitch's approval to propose to Charlotte! At the wedding, Richie suffers a beatdown from the new 4 Horsemen stable that Ric's managing. |

Yes, because pushing guys as superfaces even if they were getting booed was the only possible way to book Reigns and Batista back then. No other booking approach was feasible. Just like when they persisted in keeping Rocky Maivia a happy smiley face. |

They should have brought him up with his Nightman gimmick.  |

You like Charlotte?
Well prepare to see what the "kid of a legend 2015 version" gimmick does in male form.
