World Wrestling Entertainment is the company that is arguably the ultimate target for each and every aspiring pro wrestler in the world. It's the survival of the fittest, and only the fittest get to the stage that is the WWE.
If there is anything else a wrestler can achieve other than performing for the world's biggest wrestling promotion, it would be to hold a world championship in the WWE. Over the years we have seen many wrestlers hold the prestigious championship, and the title reigns have elevated those wrestlers into the superstars that we know today.
However, not all superstars in the WWE get the opportunity to become World Champion. If we turn the pages of the WWE history books, we can see many legendary superstars who have never held a World Championship in the company.
Trending
The current WWE roster has more or less a similar star power and talented wrestlers that it had in the 90s and mid 2000s. Let's have a look at 4 superstars who may never become a world champion in the WWE.
__________________________________________________________________________
#4 Sami Zayn
The man formerly known as 'El-Generico' has won numerous championships and accolades on the independent scenes before finding his way to the WWE. Since his arrival, he has held only the NXT Championship.
After his impressive run in the developmental territory of the WWE, Zayn found himself on the main roster and has had some interesting with superstars like John Cena, Kevin Owens and Braun Strowman. Unfortunately, that's all the time he would get on the main roster as he was not given a run with any major championship.
Now that he has reunited with Kevin Owens and will go on to face AJ Styles for the WWE Championship in a handicap match at the Royal Rumble, it is highly unlikely that either Zayn or Owens would walk out as the new WWE Champion.
While his best friend Kevin Owens is already an established superstar in the main roster with multiple title reigns under his belt, Zayn, on the other hand, has not come close to achieving the same level of success as that of his best friend, and most likely never will.
#3 Big Cass
WWE had some big plans for Big Cass after his heel turn and we can be sure that putting a world championship on him was not one among those plans. Even before his heel turn, the 7 footer was featured in the fatal four-way match for the Universal Championship in which he lost.
His push was short lived as he was a victim of an untimely injury as he suffered a torn ACL during a match against his former tag team partner Enzo Amore on the post Summerslam episode of Raw and he hasn't been seen in WWE programming since.
Irrespective of having the looks and the physique of a Vince McMahon kind of guy, he lacked the charisma of a true champion. Unless he makes an effort to improve this once he returns to in-ring action, it is highly unlikely that he will ever hold a world championship in the WWE.
#2 Rusev
Even though he was given the infamous foreign heel gimmick upon his arrival, Rusev did a great job portraying the role. He was the ideal tough guy the WWE needed and it is safe to say that the WWE has done a very good job in soiling all the momentum he had during his initial stage. The fact that a person like Rusev, who was kicking around superstars like Roman Reigns has now been pushed to a lower mid-card level is nothing but a shame.
The Rusev Day gimmick may be doing some good for the 'Bulgarian Brute' for now but if we look into it as a long-term perspective, it might not be as beneficial as it looks.
If the same trend continues throughout the year and WWE does not find a fitting storyline for Rusev, it is almost inevitable that he will never become a world champion in the WWE.
#1 Cesaro
Cesaro is one among the talented professional wrestlers on the WWE roster right now and has the potential to become one of the greatest WWE Champions in the history of the company. Nevertheless, the WWE has not recognized the potential in Cesaro and hasn't made a single effort to push him as a world championship contender over the years.
Irrespective of being one of the best technical wrestlers that the company has to offer, the 'Swiss Superman' has never tasted world championship gold in the WWE yet. He is now working in the tag team division alongside Sheamus and will face Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan for the Raw Tag Team Championships at the Royal Rumble.
Apart from that, it doesn't look like that the WWE has any long-term plans for the 'King of Swing' and we can assume that the WWE will never put a world championship on Cesaro in the foreseeable future.
With all said, we should know that it's the WWE that we're talking about, the same company which made Jinder Mahal the WWE Champion. It may at some point in time put world championships on these 4 superstars. But as for now, I'll join all of you in hoping that this prediction does not come true.
