As new matches, new rivalries, and new events keep coming our way, fans are also waiting to see some new champions who can take their chance and make each brand even more refreshing for the viewers.
Many big names exist on the main roster of WWE who are yet to win their first major title with their respective brands. These include Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe, and The Revival, among others.
On the other hand, there are many good wrestlers who haven't won a title at all in the WWE both on the developmental brand and the main roster.
Here we take a look at five wrestlers who have done exceptionally well in 2018 and deserve to win their first WWE championship this year to help make their careers light up.
#5 Apollo Crews
Apollo may not be the tallest man in the locker room, but he is definitely one of the strongest men in the WWE. There aren't many high-flying strongmen in the WWE which makes Apollo a special talent.
He was stuck in a gimmick with Titus O'Neil and Dana Brooke as part of Titus Worldwide, but since the trio disbanded, Apollo has received a steady push on the main roster, which is a welcome move.
Apollo did not find much success in NXT before his main roster debut (as he was simply called up too early), but it seems like he has finally been noticed by the top officials backstage.
This could prove to be the year of Apollo as he tries to make waves across the Raw brand as a babyface, and he could finally win his first championship in WWE on either the Raw or the SmackDown brand where the field for the mid-card title is open.
