5 things that might happen in WWE in 2019

A lot of big changes might be in the cards after WrestleMania

WrestleMania season is here and the build to the big event has already begun. Seth Rollins stamped his ticket to face Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship and Becky Lynch won the Women's Royal Rumble match in order to challenge Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women's Championship in April.

Although she later was suspended 60 days and may subsequently miss the match she earned, Lynch will still likely be in the match along with Rousey and rival Charlotte Flair.

A lot of things will obviously clear up between now and April in regards to how WWE will shape up post WrestleMania.

The Superstar Shake Up that will follow WrestleMania will likely set the tone for the middle of the year in WWE.

But with so much changing in the world of wrestling (more promotions, WWE altering how they handle releases, superstars retiring), just what will the second half of 2019 hold? Here are some things that just might happen at some point in 2019.


#5 Drew McIntyre wins Money in the Bank

Will the Scottish Psychopath make good on his promise to become Universal Champion in 2019?

With his return to the main roster last year, big things were in store for Drew McIntyre. While he and Dolph Ziggler did win the Raw Tag Team Titles, the reign was short-lived. McIntyre hasn't really experienced much in the way of success regarding championships.

He's been booked as one of the top heels in WWE but hasn't seen any fruit come from his labor.

Since Seth Rollins could potentially (and hopefully) finally take the Universal Championship off of the intermittently appearing Brock Lesnar, Rollins will need challengers throughout the second-half of the year.

The Money in the Bank PPV is usually one of the most anticipated of the year because of the potential of a new superstar getting the chance to potentially be a top champ in WWE.

If booked correctly, then it is a precursor of things to come. But with the booking of the likes of Braun Strowman and Damien Sandow after they won the briefcase, it seemed like failed attempts to cash in on creating new stars.

WWE clearly needs to do that and not rely on stars from the past to save things. Heels work best as briefcase winners, and if McIntyre is going to be a champ in WWE sometime soon, winning the MITB briefcase would be the best way to clear his path towards main-event stardom.
