Could he be the next champion

Every Superstar dreams of working for the WWE. When those dreams are realized, there is an overwhelming sense of accomplishment, and at the same time, it results in the wrestlers dreaming of bigger things.

It is not wrong to say that every wrestler in the WWE locker room yearns to win championship gold. From the United States title to the coveted WWE Championship, every title in the company has a rich history and lineage. Winning the world title not only validates a Superstar’s career but also puts them alongside some of the greatest professional wrestlers, to ever step foot in a wrestling ring.

Let's take a look at ten WWE Superstars who can become world champions for the very first time, in 2018.


#10 Baron Corbin

‘The Lone Wolf’ showed a lot of promise when he was first drafted to the main roster. On NXT, Corbin proved that he can play the role of a devious, cunning villain very well. However, he soon got lost in the shuffle on SmackDown Live, similar to many other Superstars before him. For a brief period, it looked as if the WWE writers had given up on the Superstar, but in 2017, Corbin scratched and clawed his way back into the fold.

Baron is set to compete at WWE Fastlane in a Six Pack Challenge match for the WWE Championship, and while the odds of Corbin walking out of the PPV as the new champion are slim to none, it shows that the Superstar has been doing the right things, to show his commitment to the WWE management.

'The Lone Wolf' has the looks and the character WWE can get behind. Let us not forget, we had Jack Swagger as the World Heavyweight Champion not too long ago.
