Five Inevitable Champions

Four months into twenty nineteen and we are beginning to see just who could become a future champion. Standout matches, rivalries, and storylines have shaped and exciting few months ahead and it’s clear that there are a bunch of superstars destined for gold! But exactly who stands and chance and exactly when could fans see these huge stars capture a championship in the WWE?

THIS POST WAS PRE POSTED

Drew McIntyre

Throughout the past four months, former NXT star Drew McIntyre has gained a great deal of momentum working solid matches, picking up big victories, and colliding with some of the biggest and best talents on the RAW roster. The Scottish Psychopath has had a brilliant build on the main roster with the WWE conducting his run in a very smart manner but it's clear it's about time McIntyre got his hands-on main roster gold of his own. A favourite amongst many to win this year's Money in the Bank there is no denying  Drew would make for an excellent pick to score that huge victory and kick start a new era in the WWE as Universal Champion. On the flip side, moving him over to Smackdown LIVE opens up the opportunity for McIntyre to become WWE champion. Regardless of what exact title he gets his hands-on Drew has had a year far too strong for him not capture a championship and it really is inevitable he gets his hands on one soon!

Roman Reigns

From the moment Roman Reigns made his return to in-ring action fans have been positive that its only a matter of time till ger captures gold once again! While I love that the WWE have moved him over to Smackdown LIVE there was most certainly a chance to see Reigns vs Rollins with roles switched up seeing Reigns chase after the Universal champion. The move to the blue brand does mean Reigns may have a little longer till he gets his hands on major championship gold with babyface WWE Champ Kofi Kingston still in possession of the title its unlikely the two will collide however, its inevitable that Roman will get a major title shot at some point its only a matter of time. 

Kay Lee Ray

Moving over to the NXT UK scene and its time to focus in on the women’s division. Toni Storm becoming the NXT UK Women’s champion was an inevitable win in itself. From the get-go she was dubbed as the face of the entire roster and it was truly only a matter of time before she got her hands on the title but with the division thickening competition is getting tougher! One of the standout names amongst the women’s division is newcomer Kay Lee Ray. The experienced former ICW Women’s champion is yet to show a fraction of what she is capable of but with the WWE already using her well and her skillset sure to provide a great match with the current champion she is most certainly a favourite to take on Storm at some point in the coming months and I have no doubt that this year Kay Lee Ray will find herself as champion.

Braun Strowman

If there is anyone on this list in serious need of a run as champion, it is Braun Strowman. In all honesty, I’m very surprised that the WWE are yet to give Strowman a title considering they have been presented with so many perfect opportunities to do so. It was clear last year he was the perfect superstar to dethrone Lesnar and become Universal champion with his booking and build proving he was more than ready for the win. In twenty nineteen so far, fans haven’t been left with much solid content from Strowman and I know I personally have been very impressed with what we have seen from him. I believe the WWE missed out on a major opportunity to move him to Smackdown LIVE but with the US title now on Monday nignts, the monster among men may finally get his hands on a WWE title. 

AJ Styles

He may have had a very historic lengthy reign as WWE champion last year but there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that AJ Styles most certainly has another reign as champion coming up in the near future. His move to Monday night RAW during the superstar shake up fans can expect to see Styles eventually, get his hands on gold once again and whether that be the US or IC title or a major WWE championship what we know is Styles can bring a heck of a lot to any championship and reigning as champion will allow Styles to work some great matches and rivalries while in the process adding more to the careers of up and coming talent. There is also a chance that after his recent move to Monday nights a heel turn may be in the picture for Styles allowing him to possibly dethrone Rollins in a big twist. 

And those are just some of the names I believe will most certainly get their hands-on WWE gold at some point this year! I know this was a slightly smaller blog post than usual, but I wanted to write this one for it’s a topic I’ve wanted to discuss a little here for a while! As always, I would love to know what you guys think so make sure to leave a comment below or tweet me over at @TezangiVictoria telling me who you think will become champion this year also.
