From wwe.com John Cena

Let's be honest: hailing from the rolling hills and broad valleys that constitute West Newbury, Mass., will likely never earn you "street cred"--unless, of course, you're John Cena. Then again, it didn't happen overnight for him, either. Long before he became the Dr. of Thuganomics, young Cena had to endure the neighborhood rocker kids' taunts about his baggy pants and rayon Kwamé shirts. His love for freestyling lyrics about rebellion and individualism just didn't fit within the small rural community. By the time he turned 15, however, those same kids would stop teasing him, for it became apparent that Cena had been developing another passion: hitting the gym.
After applying to more than 60 colleges (and being accepted by 58), Cena attended Massachusetts' Springfield College, where he excelled as a Division III All-American offensive lineman and team captain for the Pride. But as much as he fondly remembers his college football accomplishments, he's equally as proud of earning his degree in Exercise Physiology, which he attributes to making him a smarter, more durable performer in the ring today.
Though a huge WWE fan since childhood, rooting for heroes like Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, and Shawn Michaels, Cena had honestly never even considered a career in WWE. Instead, he flew out to California in 2000, to pursue a profession in bodybuilding (a move he now admits to making simply because his father had told him he wouldn't make it out there). But while working behind the counter of Gold's Gym in Venice, a discussion with a wrestler-in-training encouraged Cena to enroll in classes at Ultimate Pro Wrestling. He was instantly hooked, and became motivated to learn everything he could about his newfound craft. He obviously proved a quick study; within a year, World Wrestling Entertainment signed Cena to a developmental contract to train at Ohio Valley Wrestling. By June 2002, he had joined the SmackDown roster, and less than a year later headlined the first of what has since become countless main-event matches.
That said, Cena has never forgotten his roots. In fact, remembering where he came from has helped him evolve into the man he is today: A well-versed hip-hop artist, a successful movie star and a blue-collared Superstar who's always ready to fight. He leads his WWE fan-based army into battle with the mission statement he's been down with since Day One: Hustle, loyalty and respect.

from wwe.com Booker T

Booker T has an illustrious and decorated history with WWE. He is a six-time World Champion, winner of the 2006 King of the Ring tournament, as well as the holder of numerous other prestigious championships and honors.
From the first moment he stepped into the WWE ring in 2001, Booker T has Spinarooni-ed his way into Superstar elite status, tangling with a virtual who's who of the squared circle, including "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Undertaker, John Cena, Triple H, Randy Orton, Batista, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Christian, Mark Henry and many more.
Some of the most memorable moments of his WWE career included his association with The Alliance, costing "Stone Cold" the first-ever Undisputed WWE Championship against Chris Jericho, battling Austin in a grocery store, a partnership with the outrageous Goldust that was as hilarious as it was unlikely and his outspoken reign as King Booker.
The ultra-charismatic Superstar returned to WWE in 2011 as part of the biggest Royal Rumble in WWE history. He then joined the announce team on SmackDown as a color commentator and became a trainer on USA's hit reality series "WWE Tough Enough."

From wwe.com Big Show

Reminiscent of Andre the Giant and Big John Studd before him, Big Show is a feared competitor who can intimidate an opponent with his size and stare alone. The pound-for-pound World's Largest Athlete's measurements are astounding: 441 pounds; 7-feet of raw girth and might; 22 EEEEE shoe size; 22 1/2 ring size and a 64-inch chest.
Big Show made his in-ring debut in WCW where he left a massive impression as The Giant, and captured the WCW Championship on two occasions, along with the WCW Tag Team Titles. The Giant had an immediate impact in WCW, focusing his attention on some of the biggest icons in the industry, from Hulk Hogan to The "Nature Boy" Ric Flair.
In 1999, the mighty giant became a worldwide star upon signing with WWE. He continued to collide with Superstars of great renown and captured countless titles, including the WWE Championship. From "Stone Cold" Steve Austin to The Rock to Undertaker to Triple H, Big Show has battled and manhandled the top names in all of WWE.
In the years that followed, no Superstar on the roster could stand toe-to-toe with Big Show feeling anything close to confident, and with good reason. Using his incredible size to utterly manhandle even the most seasoned combatants, Big Show found success wherever he went, whether it be Raw, SmackDown or ECW. Among his myriad accomplishments, Big Show became the first Superstar in history to capture the WWE, WCW and ECW Championships when he conquered The Land of the Extreme in 2006.
Although he is known to display his outside the ring, including a comedic turn in WWE Studios’ “Knucklehead,” this titanic warrior is all business when he steps through (or in his case, over) the ropes. Armed with a mighty Knockout Punch and a vast array of high-impact maneuvers, there is not a Superstar on the roster who can intimidate Big Show.

FROM wwe.com Alex Riley

Does his hair look all right? Of course it does. If there is one thing that can be said about Alex Riley, he clearly is not lacking in confidence.
The son of a former Miss Virginia and an ESPN sportscaster, Riley describes himself as a "rare breed." Indeed, after earning bachelor's degrees in economics and communications from Boston College, he knows exactly what he's worth and never hesitated to communicate it to the WWE Universe during the second season of WWE NXT. Riley finished an impressive third place in the competition before following The Miz to Raw, first as his apprentice, then later promoted to his "Vice President of Corporate Communications."
In the employ of The Awesome One, this self-proclaimed "Varsity Villain" cultivated his affinity for bending the rules and bullying his opponents at every opportunity.
Few NXT Rookies burst from WWE NXT with as much potential as Alex Riley, a truly charismatic Superstar poised for greatness.

Stats

6'2"
251 lbs.
Washington, D.C.

Super star walk through Alberto del Rio FROM wwe.com

Alberto Del Rio came to WWE from the Mexican elite. A Superstar of tremendous society stature and culture, he has been linked to the bloodline of Spanish royalty Ferdinand and Isabella. Everything about him, from his education to his sense of honor and his very appearance exudes an image of carefully-calculated majesty. He is, in every sense of the word, a Superstar of boundless means.
With pure aristocratic arrogance, Del Rio chose to make his WWE debut in the summer of 2010 by interrupting and insulting Rey Mysterio on SmackDown. Later that night, Del Rio stunned the WWE Universe by making the two-time World Champion tap out in his first WWE match!
Alberto Del Rio clearly prides himself on excellence. Armed with talent that appears to match his superior attitude, his zest for the finer things in life makes him destined for in-ring glory.
