WWE Draft Preview: Old Faces in New Places Part Four

Leading up the highly anticipated WWE draft in just more than a week, I will be highlighting six moves I believe WWE creative should make—whether it be during or after the draft.

Part three of the series saw John Morrison head to WWE's flagship program, Raw. With one of WWE's heels of the future, Sheamus, fully entrenched on Raw, the brand was in need of another face to essentially fill the void Triple H will leave opposite Randy Orton as the show's top faces.

This is where Morrison comes into play. A feud with former tag partner The Miz would be a great way to establish Morrison's credibility. WWE creative could then build to the future with Morrison, potentially capping his push with a potential WrestleMania victory over Sheamus.

Part four is the first of the series that doesn't exclusively deal with the movement of one superstar to another brand. This move is fairly obvious and isn't all too shocking...but it needs to happen.

Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes Appear On Different Brands

The Legacy was a direct descendant of Evolution. Now, The Legacy needs to join Evolution in the past.

For as long as DiBiase and Rhodes are on the same brand, they will be associated with The Legacy and Randy Orton. If the WWE is serious about making one, or both of these men legit singles superstars, one of them needs to leave Raw and start anew.

In all likelihood, Rhodes would be the one heading to Friday nights, and that makes a lot of sense. SmackDown is the clear-cut No. 2 WWE show, and by all appearances, Rhodes is a clear-cut No. 2 to DiBiase.

On SmackDown, Rhodes would be better fit to make an impact. On Raw, Rhodes is lost in the shuffle and will never become a legitimate contender if he toils away on superstars week after week. As long as he is on SmackDown, Rhodes wouldn't find his way to mediocrity.

If WWE isn't sold on Rhodes as a singles competitor, they could throw the proverbial curveball and send DiBiase to SmackDown.

If this were to happen, I would only hope DiBiase would be in line for a singles push, possibly with the often-talked about return of the Million Dollar Championship.

With or without the Million Dollar Championship, DiBiase would be well suited to head down the type of road I had John Morrison heading in part three of this series. DiBiase isn't ready to step onto the main-event stage yet, but with his look, charisma and in-ring skills, DiBiase could break through the glass ceiling his father couldn't.

Whether Cody Rhodes becomes a star in the company or not remains to be seen. It helps having a father who is a WWE Hall of Famer, but the biggest obstacles standing in Rhodes' way is his small stature and sub-par mic skills. Rhodes doesn't quite fit the look Vince McMahon prefers, but then again, neither did Dusty Rhodes...so anything is truly possible.

If either one of these former tag-team partners hits the big-time, every sign points to DiBiase.
