"The King of Lists" is back and I have composed a ranking of the five WWE superstars that will dominate the industry for the next 10 years. 

I have taken into consideration that The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Triple H and Batista are all at least 39 years old.  Out of these four guys, Triple H is the only WWE superstar that is not 40 years old.  Triple H will be turning 40 in July of this year.  I think these four guys will continue to have a big impact on the industry, but they will not dominate the business like they have been.

So, without further delay...

The Five Superstars Who Will Dominate the WWE for The Next Decade

 

1. Randy Orton

Everyone seems to be sold on the fact that Randy Orton is the present and future of the WWE.  His current storyline with Triple H is off the charts and he is finally going to get to shine in the main event at WrestleMania XXV this year.  Randy Orton is one of the best heels in the business and he will only get better with experience.

 

2. Edge

At one point in time, Edge was being labeled the sole future of the WWE.  Edge was the most controversial superstar in the WWE when he was having live sex shows on Raw and doing everything by his own rules.  If Edge can ever escape his current storyline with Vickie Guerrero, he will get back to being one of the most talked about guys in the business.

 

3. Jeff Hardy

I know a lot of you are not sold on Jeff Hardy being a regular main eventer in the WWE.  I personally think Jeff will win a world title many times in his career.  I do not think he is a flash in the pan like Rey Mysterio.  When he won the WWE title last year, he was receiving similar pops as Steve Austin and The Rock in their primes.  After Jeff gets past his current feud with Matt Hardy, the sky will be the limit for the charismatic enigma.

 

4. Chris Jericho

I stated earlier that Randy Orton was one of the best heels in the business.  The reason I said that is because Chris Jericho is hands down the best heel in the WWE as of right now.  Jericho is 38 years old, but he is fresh because of his two year absence from 2005 until 2007.  Jericho is pure gold on the mic.  He makes every word that comes out of his mouth believable.  He is so great on the mic that fans are actually attacking him.

 

5. John Cena

I personally hate John Cena with a passion, but for me to leave out Cena would be an injustice on my part.  The kids love this guy and he will stay at the top of the industry for years to come.  There is no denying the fact that Cena is extremely dedicated to his work. 

 

That is my list of the five superstars that will dominate the WWE.  I am also very high on Ted Dibiase Jr and John Morrison.  I see future main event potential for both of these superstars. 

Let me know what you think, whether you agree or disagree.
