10 WWE Superstars who will define 2018

Roman Reigns Universal Champion
As inevitable as day follows night.

#10 Ronda Rousey

Ronda Rousey WrestleMania 31
Whether we like it or not, she's coming.

She might not be there in time for the Royal Rumble or even WrestleMania, but Ronda Rousey's arrival in WWE at some point in 2018 is inevitable. Though she's far from the star she once was, it will still be a huge deal, and make the biggest waves women's wrestling has ever seen.

Her name alone will pay dividends, but how she's pushed will matter a lot. If WWE is smart, they'll take advantage of her embarrassing losses to Holm and Nunes and use them to take their time. Does she still have it? She'll certainly answer in the affirmative each time in a slow build-up. The likeliest destination: a date with Asuka at WrestleMania 35.

It would be another huge milestone for women's wrestling. A showdown between Ronda Rousey and the undefeated RAW Women's Champion would be the best chance the women ever have to main event WrestleMania. It's there where "the streak" would end.

Though it's not my preference to have Ronda do those honours (that would be Kairi Sane), I can't deny that it would be a huge, successful match for both competitors.

2017 has been a bad year for the women's division, but 2018 will see a strong chance of righting those wrongs.
