Current hottest mid-card acts in the WWE

WWE as a promotion, has always been a sports entertainment company and the people involved have never been shy about it during public interactions. But never before than now has it been more about wrestling in its truest manner, with the likes of the Shield, Daniel Bryan, CM Punk etc. being at the forefront of the company.

The idea of a top-tier superstar is still the same and the guy or girl, who ‘moves’ the crowd is usually the one who is ready to step up.

The difference in the wrestling landscape is palpable as there is significant jostle among the guys lower on the card to break the door above them to own the top spots. Gone are the days when talented wrestlers were content being tagged as a mid-card guy and appear on the big shows.

It was CM Punk who truly paved the way for guys to aspire for more than what they were given and the following superstars I feel make fine examples of wrestlers who are on the verge of a breakthrough with their consistent performances getting positive crowd reactions and can step up when their time comes.

Please note that the list doesn’t include names of guys who have had a run in the main-event scene, at some point in their careers.

Damien Sandow

I know, I know, he holds the Money in the Bank briefcase. Well, technically at least, he hasn’t been guaranteed a main event spot yet and if u aren’t in the main event on WWE’s B- show, then it’s safe to call u a mid card act, I think.

Sandow’s gimmick is awesome and the fact that he does his act so well is a testament to his ability. The crowd love to hate him, but it’s not hard to see how entertaining he really is and nobody gets more laughs than he does now.

I would love to see him turn up the intensity quotient a bit more and we have a great WWE performer on our hands.
