Since Roman Reigns stepped away from the WWE ring to battle Leukaemia, Braun Strowman has been the top guy in the WWE and on RAW, despite having still not held a singles title on the main roster.

Strowman has been feuding with Baron Corbin over the last month or so, which was set to come to a head at TLC, the final PPV of 2018, where the two RAW Superstars were to settle their differences. Corbin has used his GM position to sway results in his favour, siding with the heels on RAW to destroy the babyfaces on the show.

Stephanie McMahon announced that if Strowman wins the match, he will get another shot at the Universal title and Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble, while a victory for the acting GM of RAW, Corbin, would result in him getting the RAW GM role full-time.

But it seems like the match may not happen after all, following Strowman's elbow injury that he suffered at the hands of Corbin, Bobby Lashley, and Drew McIntyre. The Monster Among Men had surgery and TLC may come too soon for him as he could miss out on the PPV, according to some reports.

If Strowman is not cleared to wrestle, here are five Superstars who could replace him to face Baron Corbin at TLC:


#1 Lars Sullivan

If there's one big man in the WWE who could really shake things up on the main roster, it's Lars Sullivan. Sullivan made his TV debut on NXT only last year in April, but has quickly become one of the most feared Superstars on the NXT roster, despite not winning any gold on the show.

WWE began airing vignettes of the NXT Superstar and his arrival on the main roster last month, and it seems like he will debut soon. WWE haven't announced which brand Sullivan will wrestle in, but my prediction is that he will end up on RAW as they need someone like him more than SmackDown.

His introduction at TLC against Corbin in case of Strowman's injury, would get a huge pop from the crowd, and he could be one of the best names to be Strowman's replacement.
