#1 Mustafa Ali's time is yet to come
Mustafa Ali is an incredible professional wrestler and has absolutely earned his promotion from 205 Live to Smackdown. He arguably could have won the Cruiserweight Championship, but is poised to do amazing things on the main roster.
Ali's first few weeks have gone by pretty well, with him owning a pinfall victory over Daniel Bryan. It seemed like he would be the next challenger for the WWE Championship at Royal Rumble, but that is not the case as we saw on Smackdown.
A WWE title match at Royal Rumble between Daniel Bryan and Mustafa Ali seems a bit too predictable for it to be Ali's big opportunity. He will enter the Royal Rumble match and surely have an impressive outing, before continuing his upward trajectory on the Blue brand.
Sometime around the summer would be a better time for a championship program between Bryan and Ali, as the result would be in a little more doubt. There needs to be a longer and better build-up for the 205 Live alumni to earn a WWE Championship shot. It will be worth it.
