2016 WWE Mock Draft Part Two: General Managers, NXT Talent and Undertaker

July 18, 2016

Samoa Joe- RAW

Who knows if Samoa Joe will ever actually make the main roster, but I felt like the risk was worth taking at this point. Joe is a guy similar to Jericho who can work any spot on the card, as a heel or face, and put on great matches. Plus he could help put young talent over as well.

Baron Corbin – Smackdown

With every revamped idea needs to come with youth. Baron is lost on a three hour RAW show. Give him importance in a two hour show. He is lost and it is all about the placement of him on the card. If he follows up a great segment from Seth or Roman, you simply think he is less important. He can get easy heat with interference with guys like Dean, Sami and Finn.

Alberto Del Rio – RAW

Even at this stage of his career, I feel like Del Rio still has a ton of potential that hasn’t been taped into yet. I really like his in ring work, but they have to do something to develop his character to make him more marketable. They are sitting on a gold mine if they can build Del Rio to be the Mexican superstar that Rey Mysterio was. Hopefully Del Rio doesn’t require surgery 5 times in his left knee along the way though.

The Club- Smackdown

Balor Club has to be a real thing, especially with how much Finn’s changes are going to be. Even if they stay heel for a while, flip to face and try to help Balor, realism is always a great angle for WWE. Use their history and use their friendship to possibly feud with The Wyatt Family. Simple and logical booking ( Sucka!)

Josh controls most of the creative writing and ideas for the show on a weekly basis, as well as an on-air talent.

Aside from working with WrestleZone, Isenberg began his career in Broadcast Journalism interning at ESPN and worked with CBS Radio for three years. He has also had the opportunity to interview some of the best athletes and performers alive, including Andrew McCutchen, Ben Roethlisberger, Chris Jericho, Billy Gunn, Karl Anderson, Matt Hardy, Steven Strasburg and others.

Currently, Josh Isenberg works for Major League Baseball in their Advanced Media Productions. He grew up in Pittsburgh and went to Point Park University, which is where Chair Shot Reality is filmed each week.

His life outside of his obsession with wrestling include being a savant for Seinfeld, NFL, NBA, MLB and many television shows. He also has an undying love for musicals, which includes many shows he was a part of in high school. Some of his favorite wrestling moments can be linked to such superstars as Edge, The Rock, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels and The Great Khali.
