5 WWE Superstars who can win their first main roster singles championship In 2019
The WWE is well and truly on the Road to WrestleMania 35 in New York, and with all the bouts that have already been set up or rumored for the show, fans are understandably excited, as we will likely see new champions and some incredible bouts.
Unfortunately, WWE do this every year, and following WrestleMania and the string of NXT promotions, the RAW and SmackDown Live brands struggle to book entertaining content until they have to build SummerSlam and then Survivor Series, but in 2019, we are remaining optimistic that that might change.
The talent within the WWE is at an all-time high, and with the competition that is seemingly looming with the ever-improving NJPW and All Elite Wrestling, the WWE creative team is going to have to step up, and if they can, we may be moving into another golden age in professional wrestling.
With so many stars walking away from the company or becoming part-time, the WWE certainly have some voids at the top of their two shows, so building legitimate future stars and main event talents should be their focus in 2019, and there are plenty of candidates out there.
Winning a top Championship may not mean what it used to in wrestling because of the inconsistent and downright nonsensical booking from the WWE at some points, but it's still a big deal. We think that these stars have what it takes to win their first in the coming calendar year:
#1 Andrade
After leaving his career in Mexico where he was known as 'La Sombra', there was plenty of hype around Andrade 'Cien' Almas, and after a rocky start, he is now looking like a big part of WWE's future. Since debuting on SmackDown Live, the WWE haven't done too much with him, but he has had a series of incredible bouts with Rey Mysterio that have made him one of the companies hottest properties.
With Zelina Vega by his side, Andrade has the potential to be a WWE Champion, having the in-ring work, the charisma and the character that it takes to be a top star. There are plenty of people ahead of him in the line on SmackDown (Joe, Bryan, Styles, Orton), but if he keeps putting on fantastic performances like his bouts with Rey Mysterio, it's only a matter of time until the WWE strap the rocket to him and push him to the moon.
