If You Could Hire Any Indy Worker n Give Them a 1+ Title Run

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

For the sake of this thread indy includes foreign workers, but doesn't include NXT or anything affiliated with WWE. This thread applies to any title not just the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. So if you think Divas, IC, US, Tag or whatever would be more interested then go for it.

I'd say in a perfect world I would hire Kazuchika Okada and give him a year long plus regin with the IC title. I'd really like to see the IC title be elevated back to it's former glory. It was on the right track for a little while with Cody last year and Barrett could be good for it, but otherwise it's been pretty underwhelming for a pretty long time. Since Okada has excelled in NJPW and NJPW essentially is WWE style these days, but in Japan he could hypothetically transfer over great and be the perfect person to bring prestige to it because moving further up the card. That being said this is hardly a perfect world and if Okada were actually hired I see him being wasted and booked as a comedy face teaming with Santino in no time. Thank goodness Okada has stayed in NJPW!

I'd give Colt Cabana an Intercontinental Championship run. He's pretty damn funny, he has IWC cred and he is closer to "the WWE look" than any other "Indy guy" they've hired.

Clicked Reply with intentions of mentioning Colt Cabana, but other than him, John Morrison deserves another shot. Shelton Benjamin as well. As well as most of NJPW.

Takeshi Morishima was the one I always wanted to see in WWE, if former ROH champion who is now part-owner of NOAH counts. He'd be a fantastic monster heel (or face, really) with any of the belts.

However, my #1 pick for an indy guy that WWE needs: Rocky freaking Romero. Guy is just everything they need right now, and I think he'd have a killer Intercontinental reign.

Divas - Kellie friggin' Skater. I could name a bunch of Shimmer alumni, but Kellie Skater is the one I absolutely badly want to see in WWE.

I'd bring in mid 2000s semi in shape Samoa Joe and let him loose on the world title scene.

I also have access to a time machine in this scenario.

Give New Jack the hardcore title and just watch the world burn.

[KobashiChop]

Devitt. World Champion. For all the years.

[crashmatsbazz]

I'd give Chuck Taylor the IC title for a year. that would be the best year ever in the history of things

[mattyy]

de rail rock un rolla

princeuuuuuuuuuuuuuu devitttaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[AdamAFL was sooooo wrong]

Kevin Steen. WWE World Heavyweight Title run. I'd love to see it. Don't think it'll ever happen but I'd love to see it.

[Totorob101]

Kana as Divas champion would rule the world

[austinariesfan88]

Austin Aries with the WWE World Heavyweight title.

[Johnny Flamingo]

Facade - Intercontinental title and have a meaningful feud against Sami Zayn and Cesaro. I think the three could steal the show on a nightly basis.

[champviadq]

John Morrison with the Intercontinental Championship...

...Wait

[carp (SPC, Itoh Respect Army)]

I'd bring Kaval back. Feud him with champ Bryan. Dollar signs.

Young Bucks as Tag Champs - Let them be their high spotty, air guitary, tassled, over the top, obnoxious, ridiculous selves - then put them in the ring with the Usos, The Shield, The Rhodes Bros, The Wyatts, etc. Towns will be made, houses will be sold out. Fun will be had.

New Jack during the 24/7 days would have made some entertaining segments. Especially if his music started playing out of nowhere (no matter where he is).

Since he's now an Indy guy, I'd give AJ Styles a run for the cruiserweight title (circa 2002-2003). He'd also get to tear it up with the Smackdown Six by proxy.

Chuck Taylor or El Generico if they can help him rebuild that orphange first.

[Dat Dude]

Male: Samoa Joe, World title run.

Female: Mercedes Martinez, Diva's title.

[Mighty Attack Tribble]

Male: Cliff Compton, IC champ with free reign on his promos.

Female: Cheerleader Melissa, Divas champ. Just let her and Paige have epic back and forth battles.
