Predicting the next 5 potential WWE Champions
Daniel Bryan won the WWE Championship last year when he defeated AJ Styles, ending AJ's 371 day reign by pulling out a low-blow. Since then, the so-called "The New Daniel Bryan" is holding the WWE Championship, by the looks of his current booking, it seems that he's not going to lose WWE Championship anytime soon, though nothing can be said for sure.
Regardless, Bryan is set to defend his title against AJ Styles at the end of this month. Moreover, there is a strong possibility that the former might lose the title to the latter (after the recent character change of Styles).
But enough talking; let's run through a list of those superstars who might become WWE Champion in the near future. Before we get started, just remember this list is written from the time scale of Royal Rumble 2019 - SummerSlam 2020.
#1 AJ Styles
AJ Styles is a two time WWE Champion. His last reign as the WWE Champion ended after 371 days, which was the eighth longest reign in the history of the WWE Championship.
Also, Styles is currently scheduled to take on "The New Daniel Bryan" at the end of this month at the Royal Rumble PPV for the WWE Championship.
Earlier, the chances of him regaining the title were meager but due to this new-found more aggressive character of Styles, referred as "The Real AJ Styles", the chances of Styles holding the WWE Championship for the third time has increased and if WWE wants to push him again then Styles needs to defeat Bryan at Rumble.
Therefore, we can see WWE pulling out all the stops at the Rumble.
Moreover, WWE has recently advertised matches for SmackDown Live after WrestleMania 35, one of them is Styles vs Bryan. Therefore, this could be an indication of Styles winning the WWE title from Bryan at the Rumble, as the former has come up short too many times at grabbing the title since losing it to the latter.
Honestly, I think, this is the only way to extend Bryan vs Styles feud if WWE has plans to make the two men quarreling until this year's WM.
