Yes, look at that list of talent! The WWE needs to be THAT again. Honestly high level football players are the perfect combination of size, athleticism and skills for performing the bread and butter essentials for in ring work.

Actually mic skills trump all that. If a guy can sell an angle his character that is what is really important in the biz. Actual wrestling ability means little.
