WWE has gone through numerous changes over the past year or so, ever since Vince McMahon had stepped down as Chairman of the company. While his retirement did not last all that long, the effects it had during his absence are still felt even now. In fact, this relates to WWE’s internal list of Superstars and their characters as well. It seems a leaked internal list has given a good look at whom WWE perceives as their top babyfaces and heels on Friday Night Smackdown.  

Sami Zayn has undoubtedly become one of the most beloved babyfaces this year, thanks to his incredible storyline with The Bloodline over the course of several months. On the other hand, Roman Reigns remains the top heel in the company as well.

In fact, Bray Wyatt has also become one of the top stars on the blue brand as soon as he returned during Extreme Rules last year. So far, he has been engaged in a feud with LA Knight, which culminated in a match at the Royal Rumble last month.

According to PWInsider via Wrestling Headlines, a leaked internal list has revealed the top male babyfaces and heels for the blue brand. As revealed by the list, Roman Reigns is the current top heel of Smackdown, while Bray Wyatt is the top babyface, with Sami Zayn being placed right behind him.
