5 WWE midcarders who probably won’t become World Champion
Not everyone can be ‘the man’ in WWE, and while the brand split certainly opened the door for new superstars to get world title reigns, it doesn’t mean that everyone deserves to hold the belt. So whether it be the WWE Championship or the Universal Championship, we want to list a few mid-card names who we feel probably won’t get the chance to carry the torch for WWE.
Now before we get into it, let’s make one thing clear: these five guys are exceptionally talented. In fact, you could argue that they’re better performers than some World Champions of years gone by, but for one reason or another, we just can’t envisage them ever making it to the mountaintop.
They’ll still likely continue to be solid mid-carders for many years to come, but that’s about it. So with that being said, here are five WWE mid-carders who we believe probably won’t become World Champion.
#1 Elias
When Elias first burst onto the scene down in NXT, his act didn’t quite connect with the Full Sail crowd in the same way that many others have before him. Whether that’s because of his singing or monotone voice remains to be seen, but nonetheless, it’s something that’s worth pointing out.
Since coming up to the main roster, however, Elias has been able to make a much better impression than anyone could’ve hoped. He’s slightly over with the crowd and is more than capable of putting on a solid match, but unfortunately, that still doesn’t mean that he’s able to carry the ball as the Universal Champion on Monday Night Raw. That’s not harsh, either; it’s just the truth.
