  Many extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of new charged or
neutral gauge bosons, with a wide variety of phenomenological implications
depending on the model adopted. The search for such particles is extensively
carried through at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and it is therefore of
crucial importance to have for each proposed scenario quantitative predictions
that can be matched to experiments. In this work we focus on the implications
of one of these models, the TopFlavor Model, proposing a charged
$\text{W}^\prime$ boson that has preferential couplings to the third generation
fermions. We compare such predictions to the ones from the so called Sequential
Standard Model (SSM), that is used as benchmark, being one of the simplest and
most commonly considered models for searches at the LHC. We identify the
parameter space still open for searches at the LHC, and in particular we show
that the cross section for the processes $pp \to \text{W}^\prime \to \tau \nu$
and $pp \to \text{W}^\prime \to tb$ can be up to two orders of magnitude
smaller with respect to the SSM, depending on the free parameters of the model,
like the particle mass and its width. This study makes the case for further
searches at the LHC, and shows how a complete and systematic model independent
analysis of $\text{W}^\prime$ boson phenomenology at colliders is essential to
provide guidance for future searches.
