Lord Tensai: Power Ranking Stars WWE's Newest Monster Should Battle

With the debut of WWE’s newest monster heel, Lord Tensai, last night on Raw, the company now has a serious wrestler that can get people over.

As good as Mark Henry has been on his recent heel run, his lack of in-ring talent has limited his effectiveness. Tensai is super athletic for a big man, so he can go with almost any competitor in the WWE.

It is unclear who the big man should face, but it’s clear that the three following stars are suitable candidates to tangle with Lord Tensai.

Randy Orton

One of the few strong faces left in the WWE is Randy Orton, but his lose to Kane at WrestleMania has many fans wondering about what is in his future.

Lord Tensai will be looking to prove himself, and there is no better star to go against as a heel than RKO. If Tensai destroys Orton, the heat that will become of the feud will be real.

RKO proved that he could work a stellar match with a bigger man at WrestleMania, but fans can expect even better when the more athletically gifted Tensai gives the fans quality matches.

Zack Ryder

The WWE’s lack of serious faces should make fans legitimately concerned about the future of the business. With that said, having Lord Tensai feud with Zack Ryder would be the perfect way to sell him as a strong face.

Each of these scenarios needs WWE to allow Lord Tensai to run through his competition to get the fans to believe he is as strong and crazy as they say. It won’t take long for the fans to fall in love with Tensai’s aggressive style.

Ryder’s overtness with the crowd would be a great way to get the rub from the crowd on Tensai, but the battles between the two could feature Ryder looking strong and the WWE actually building for the future.

Kane

With Kane coming off a huge surprise win over Randy Orton at WrestleMania, his momentum is as strong as it has been in the last five years.

After Lord Tensai goes through the Brodus Clay squash brigade, a feud with the Devil’s favorite son would be the kind of battle that fans would get behind.

Both men are freakishly strong and giant in size, which makes this matchup perfect in the eyes of the WWE. If fans start to get behind Lord Tensai, a matchup with Kane could be one of the better feuds over the next few months.
