#4.) Shane McMahon
Love him or hate him, Shane McMahon is one of the biggest superstars on SmackDown Live. When he began on the brand, he was the commissioner and a really good babyface authority figure – one that never really got involved in storylines (except once or twice a year) and his role was in helping further storylines between other superstars.
He has obviously lost popularity since his heel turn and how much he occupied screen-time after that, but Shane McMahon has been one of the integral building blocks of the blue brand over the past three years and if not for him, SmackDown may have been in a different place.
