Michael Bennett
Here’s another name that’s pretty much a household commodity among non-WWE wrestling fans, but there’s reason to believe 2016 could be a huge year for Michael Bennett. Bennett and his wife, Maria Kanellis, by all reports will be appearing on TNA television soon (after this writing, they debuted on Impact Wrestling), and despite anyone’s opinions of TNA’s position or their history of making new stars, getting on national television is never a bad thing.
Plus, assuming they present Bennett’s resume (IWGP Tag Champion, ROH Tag Champion – unlikely they mention this one), they should have no issue selling him as a main eventer from day one. Bennett has all of the tools, and moving to TNA will only heighten his name recognition, giving him the opportunity to become a true household name.
2016 Goals/Expectations: A Bennett/EC3 feud would be absolute money, but regardless, Bennett should have his name in World Title conversations shortly after his debut, unless we see a Kingdom reunion in TNA sometime in 2016.
