10 Countries that deserve their first Heavyweight Champion in the WWE

No Championship in sight, but Wade Barrett still managed to be crowned King of the Ring

#5 Bulgaria

The Bulgarian Brute could be WWE Champion one day

Not a large nation, nor one with a caliber of talent waiting in the wings. It is a nation more reasonably known now to WWE fans thanks to the flag waving Brute, Bulgaria’s own Rusev.

It is because of Rusev that Bulgaria is on the list. Once a dominating force in the WWE, Rusev was almost certain to be a champion within his first year on the main roster. This didn’t happen, and hr subsequently got mixed up in the League of Nations. There is still hope, however, as less likely mid-carders have ended up as WWE Champion.
