5 Legitimate Contenders For WWE Superstar of the Year

This year has been pretty exceptional for the WWE, both in terms of wrestling as well as in terms of entertainment. The company has been successful in blending their content to cater to a widespread audience.

While superstars like Brock Lesnar continue to dominate the red brand, there is a revolution that is gradually altering the complexion of the business we all grew up loving.

Special mention to the superstars that have brought respect to the squared circle by delivering some of the most brilliant matches of the year, with Triple H's NXT proving their mettle once again.

Since we are going to focus on the high's of 2018, we have shortlisted five of the top superstars in the company today who have all the chances of becoming the Superstar of the Year.

So, without further ado, let's dive deep and rank the top 5 legitimate contenders for WWE Superstar of the Year.

#5 A.J. Styles

Despite being the single most phenomenal performer in the world, the former WWE Champion A.J. Styles has had a pretty average 2018.

While it started pretty hot for him with a dream battle with Shinsuke Nakamura, it all went downhill after the two failed to click on multiple occasions.

His feuds with Shinsuke Nakamura, Rusev, and Samoa Joe felt pretty flat, with his rivalry with the Destroyer being a more prolific feud for the WWE Championship.

There's no denying that the company is ascending him to the top of the business, but his remarkable championship reign failed to gravitate the attention of the fans.

Considering the value he brings to the squared circle, we can't wait to see what's next for the Phenomenal One in 2019, but 2018 has not been as 'phenomenal' for him as we think it would have been.
