shouldn't Lexis King and Trick Williams be heels now given the heelish actions they've had with faces on NXT TV last week?

With becky now becoming the top heel on raw taking liv's place, and the addition to roxanne and guilia who are 2 heels to raw, I think liv would be a perfect tweener right now! She'll still do her heel work but she gets cheered for it!

  @Draysin Martin Ooh, nice question. Thanks!
  
  Rusev was near the top, but he came back...
  X-Pac is open to a rumble appearance, and he can do everything he used to.
  Daniel Bryan would blow the roof off.
  Big E returning for one or two more runs will make me very happy.
  Rob Van Dam isn't opposed. And I love watching him.
  My #1 would be Big Show for a final run with the company.

  @Draysin Martin I'd also like Ziggler, Goldberg, Ryback, Hornswoggle and Zack Ryder back.
  
  Despite how mid it was, I grew up with the PG era, and find a strange comfort in it.
