10 wrestlers who can become World Champions in WWE for the first time in 2018

#2 Asuka

2018 Women's Royal Rumble Winner - Asuka

Goldberg’s undefeated streak saw him become one of the most popular wrestlers of the 90’s, and many people thought no other Superstar could go for a couple of years without being pinned or submitted in the WWE. That was until Asuka came along, and started smashing her opponents.

On NXT, there was no one that could stand up to the Japanese sensation. Asuka never lost the NXT Women’s Championship either. Instead, her injury forced her to relinquish the title, and The Empress of Tomorrow has since dominated the Superstars on RAW. Asuka also became the first ever woman to win the Rumble match and earned a shot at the RAW Women’s Championship at WrestleMania.

Out of all the performers on this list, Asuka would be the safest bet to win the title this year. Considering the fact that WWE wants to build Asuka as the dominant figure until Ronda challenges her, we can expect to see Asuka winning the title at the grandest stage.
